The full story

Why Metro Honda earned this grade

Between December 2025 and December 2025, CarEdge negotiated or logged 4 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.

! Where to push back

3 things

Doc fee exceeds the state cap

Their typical doc fee of $799 is above NY's legal cap of $175. This is a red flag — every dealer in the state must stay at or below this number.

TipTell them you expect the doc fee at $175 or lower. It's not optional; it's the law.

Add-ons are baked into almost every deal

100% of quotes include dealer add-ons, averaging $2,195. This is their business model — inflate the OTD, then hope you don't line-item it.

TipDemand an itemized quote before signing anything. Every add-on is optional — refuse them unless you actually want them.

Listing price and real price disagree

Quoted prices run 14.3% above the advertised listing — roughly $5,005 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.

What they do well:Nothing stands out as a strength in this data. That's the finding.
