A simple Answer TO yOUr Question
Are dealer add-ons like paint protection worth it?
In most cases, no. Dealer paint protection packages are applied with cheap sealants that cost the dealer $20 to $50 but get charged to you at $500 to $1,500. Aftermarket ceramic coatings applied by a professional detailer offer far better protection for a similar or lower price. If a dealer adds paint protection to the sticker without asking, that is a red flag.

My wife and I have been working with Dave and Vantage Auto Group for over 5 years now, across 7 cars for our family, and the experience has been consistently outstanding. Dave is always professional, thorough, and a true advocate for his clients.

His staff is punctual, cordial, and a pleasure to work with, bringing a level of service that goes far beyond what you’d expect from traditional, impersonal salespeople.Dave and his team truly take it to a new level.

Had a wonderful experience working with Vantage and Dave A. in particular. Dave came as a referral from a neighbor and he was very straightforward and helpful throughout the entire process. Once I decided to move forward with a lease, Dave was super efficient and we got everything done within a few days!

Smoothest car transaction I’ve ever experienced. Quick, yet detailed, responses to all my questions. It’s a process I always dread but Sean made it seem so easy and more affordable. Highly recommend
