My daughter who lives in FL recently purchased a new Honda Pilot. She found Honda dealers charging $800. to $2000. for the dealer doc fee. NY has a $75 cap on the dealer doc fee.
That $22-23k I threw up is just looking online at what dealers have on their lot all around the country. I know each area has different prices that they can get so that was all over the place and not just in FL.
Take away $2-3k or so on the "managers special" price for the car in the OP and it's more in line with what it really should go for in the first place.
We all know adding a couple TRD parts does nothing to the value of the car, it just makes it easier to sell. Dealer fees also dry up and wither away when you start to walk out the door during negotiations or at least they have when I've purchased.
