Excel Auto Lounge

Mandatory, hidden dealer fees (not state fees) increase the sales price by a minimum of $3000 over the advertised price. Here's a sample that I was presented with: $1100 transportation fee, $899 dealer documentation fee, $899 for some anti-theft tracker, $799 for a dealer protection package (useless in my case), and a few other charges of over $500. The price that was advertised and promised by the salesperson by text in advance of my visit was $28,795. If I wanted to buy the vehicle, the actual sales price would have been over $33,000 before tax and tags. I told the salesperson I didn't want to drive several hours if I didn't know the sales price first. He assured me it would be the $8,795 advertised price. After some additional, after-the-fact research, I found that this is the normal sales practice for the Excel Auto Lounge.
