Why Darcars Honda Tenafly earned this grade
Between July 2026 and August 2026, CarEdge negotiated or logged 10 verified deals with this dealership. We pulled the doc fee, the add-ons, and the gap between advertised and out-the-door price from each one.

The price you see is the price you get

! Where to push back
1 thingDoc fee is slightly padded
$896 is $186 above the NJ average of $710. Not outrageous, but worth questioning.
TipAsk them to match the average. If they won't, factor it into your overall price — every dollar here is negotiable.
