The full story
Why Team Princeton earned this grade
Between December 2025 and December 2025, CarEdge negotiated or logged 1 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 thingAdvertised pricing is largely honest
On average, the quoted price is only 2.7% above the listing — small enough to be fees, not markup games.
! Where to push back
1 thingDoc fee is slightly padded
$539 is $139 above the national average of $400. 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.

How we know this
Every number on this page came from a real deal.

For Team Princeton, that has meant 1 verified OTD quotes logged into our database. Each one is a PDF, an email, or a screenshot showing the actual doc fee, the actual add-ons, and the actual final price — not a salesperson's promise.
