Can anyone recommend a good dealer in the Chicago area when it comes time for me to shop for my Z? I don't want to run around too much wasting time.

Who gives the best deals?

Thanks

 

Jim M'lady in Crystal Lake has always been good to us....... have bought 3 cars there, and no problems since. usually give pretty reasonable prices.

 

Nissan of St. Charles has a good service dept but not sure about the sales end. Check out chicagoz.com.. there has been a recent post on this.

 

I will vouch for both the sales and service at Nissan of St Charles....purchased my Murano from them and Service my "Z" there.
They have a great Parts dept/Mgr.....provided me with a clearbra installer who installed on site.

 

i had a good experience at woodfield nissan. i also heard good things about St. Charles. be sure to visit www.chicagoz.com

 

I've had great service on my two nissans from Continential Nissan in Countryside.

 

Dealers To Visit:
St. Charles Nissan
Arlington Heights Nissan
Continental Nissan (got my Z there)


Dealers NOT To Visit:
Woodfield Nissan
Gerald Nissan

Stay very far away from those two!!!!!

 

I have been to all of these except Woodfield, and would put each I have visited in the same category.....

 

Here's more of an elaboration on my previous post:

Woodfield had a super black Z in their main showroom, which had a $325 V.I.N. window etching fee sticker on it (dealer scam!). That should say something about those guys.

Gerald was just.......awful. I was quoted 14% a.p.r. for an '04 Z! Then, a few weeks later the salesman called me back trying to sell me an '04 Sentra with.......14% a.p.r.! A f****** Sentra! What a joke! Like I said, please stay away from them.

Continental Nissan was the only dealer that made me happy in the end. Joe Domino was the salesman. Tell him Chris V. that bought the '04 Silverstone Z sent you. He'll remember who I am.


vladsstuff,

I got my '04 Silverstone Z, with auto trans and every single available option on it for $27,210. The total price, which included: tax, doc. fee and new plates was $29,343.

However, since it's getting later in the year you might not get as good of a deal as I did. BUT, if you're looking to get an '04, then at least you have that going for you. It being last year's model & what not.

Also, have you done your research? I did over 3 months of it before I stepped foot into a dealership. I called every dealer in the entire state (yeah I was nuts), went to www.carbuyingtips.com, went to www.fightingchance.com and various other websites. The Z is an impulse-buy car, that's one reason why it took so long to get a deal. Have all your weapons ready.
