! Where to push back
2 thingsDoc fee is slightly padded
$499 is $153 above the MT average of $346. Not outrageous, but worth questioning.
TipFactor it into your overall price — every dollar here is negotiable.
Listing price and real price disagree
Quoted prices run 8.5% above the advertised listing — roughly $2,975 extra on a $35k vehicle. That's a pattern, not a rounding error.
TipThis dealer's listing price is a marketing number, not a real one. Don't anchor to it — anchor to an out-the-door target.
