Exclamation Superior Nissan in Puente Hills is now closed

Hey So Cal family,

I stopped by Superior Nissan today to grab some miscellaneous bolts, but it looks like as of today they are officially closed. I had heard through the grapevine that this was going to happen, but actually witnessed it firsthand.

With the number of aftermarket parts friendly Nissan dealerships dwindling, it looks like the only place to head to is Performance Nissan. It was nice to have a variety of dealerships to go to for commute/time purposes, but it looks like Performance Nissan is the one dealership to solely survive through the struggling economy.

Southern California is truly lucky to have had so many mod friendly dealerships at one point. We truly need to support Performance Nissan to show our appreciation of mod friendly dealerships and salvage what we have left. For the new guys, it is located in Duarte, CA. Here is the address and website:

Performance Nissan
1434 Buena Vista Street
Duarte, CA 91010

I heard that their aftermarket parts department is closing down, if not closed already. I also heard that the dealership may even be going down. However, don't quote me on that. That is just what I heard.

I think they are still open, stopped by there about 1-2 weeks ago, but yes they moved AGAIN, they were first by walmart (which is now a toyota dealership), then moved to the east side of azusa (which is now a chevrolet dealer), and now moved further east past the best buy but before the new subaru dealer, almost missed the driveway lol.

Fxck Superior Nissan, it's one of the worst dealerships ever, I went in for an estimate to trade my 03 for an altima coupe and the sales people kept chatting about their **** and the guy i asked said he was going to get an estimate but they didnt even look at my car and threw me a random number.

LOL this was in regards to Nissan dealerships. The Inland Empire guys should make note if they already haven't of RI as well.

are you sure they're close? or did you just go to their old location? is this their new location, the one next to best buy?

i was just at that dealership this saturday..

they've always helped me out, i would rather go their than wcn or pn.. before i had a sentra spec v.. with engine mods and throwing codes like its calling for SOS.. and they still serviced me and kept up the warrenty.

if this is true.. dang.. this sucks

I posted this before Capistrano Nissan closed at the end of January, but taking it's place is Wesloh Nissan, in between the Chevy and Honda dealerships on Camino Capistrano, I am a service advisor here and we are a mod friendly dealer. The parts department is still being put together but I am sure they will be carrying performance parts. If you look at Weseloh Honda for instance, they have a really nice aftermarket parts department. Like I said before, anyone that needs anything just let me know.

I second the comment made about the superior nissan sales staff... truely terrible. I went to buy a new one, tried to get me into a returned car and never did they listened to what i had to say. just awful. seriously pissed me off. So I ended up making the drive to Performance nissan... sales was awsome! service is awsome... and we all know... andy over there is truely helpful... AWSOME OVERALL!

Dam I was just there for 07 airbag sensor recall and apparently the light is still on.
I just passed them today and saw them move a couple of cars.
I wasn't even informed, didnt receive a letter, email, or anything about this!

I can definitely back up this thread and as of 6PM last night, Superior Nissan of La Puente has closed their doors. It is very unfortunate but with the economic crisis this country is going through, dealerships are dropping left and right. I am sure that some of few have even probably heard rumors about our dealer closing or being up for sale which is a complete fabricated lie. We are a PUBLIC company and if any such rumor would even transpire, everyone would know and at that point, would not be a rumor.

Performance NISSAN of Duarte is still here and have no plans on going anywhere. These are the defining moments that will set apart the men from the boys in this industry and over the years, we have become major players to the game and have high hopes to survive through these tragic times. We are more than happy to cater to all your parts and service needs for the Southern California NISSAN enthusiast community and appreciate all the support from our customer's and friend's!
