The full story

Why Maita Subaru earned this grade

Between November 2025 and June 2026, CarEdge negotiated or logged 5 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. Then we graded them the way a friend in the business would: on the things that actually cost you money.

What they do well

1 thing

Doc fee is in line with the market

At $85, their doc fee sits at or just under the CA average. Not exceptional, but nothing to fight over.

! Where to push back

2 things

Add-ons show up on most deals

40% of quotes include dealer add-ons, averaging $835. Expect them to try to include something — paint protection, nitrogen-filled tires, VIN etching.

TipNearly all aftermarket add-ons are optional and removable. Say "please take those off the quote" and watch the OTD drop.

The listing isn't quite the price

Quoted prices run about 3.3% above the advertised listing. On a $35,000 vehicle that's roughly $1,155 in extra fees or markup.

TipGet an OTD quote in writing before you visit. Compare it to the listing — if there's a gap, ask them to account for every line.
