I've only heard good things about Performance Nissan in Duarte and Superior Nissan in Rancho Santa Margarita.



Stay away from Cerritos Nissan and Connel Nissan (Costa Mesa) as I've heard some horror stories.

You NEED to go to Jeff at Performance Nissan (he's the parts manager). He knows his shizz and is a straight shooter. Can't go wrong... guaranteed!

Try Gardena Nissan.
Great service department, and overall good group of people there.

For those of you folks that have grievances towards certain dealership, do you mind providing us a brief summary or suit yourself in elaborating as to why we should stay away from them?

Just picked up my 04 Silverstone Roadster from Metro Nissan in Montclair. Got it for MSRP did everything over the phone to beat the Oct 1st increase in license fees. As for Frances Fujishige Fleet Manager 800-233-5575 ext 746

Good luck!

I've never seen positive comments towards Jeff@Performance Nissan. If I could do it all over again, I would have gone with him.

Even though I live kinda far from his dealership, whenever I'm in the area, I plan to go and check out the Nismo stuff they have there!

You can't go wrong with Performance Nissan. It's where I bought my car, and Jeff is awesome. I'm still new to performance upgrades, but Jeff still takes the time to talk to me.

I recommend Wondries Nissan in Alhambra. I got the car for MSRP, but very good customer service. Ask for Mark.


Stay away from Douglas Nissan in Orange.

Rancho Santa Margarita Superior Nissan is good, but go through their fleet dept. Good stock since they own several Nissan dealerships. Search on google for their number. I got mine there for a little under msrp for CS Track '03

Here's my experience:

Corona (Kathy Fullerton) - got me a preorder to spec at the end of the program in only 60 days. Offered other cancelled pre-orders at MSRP, no tricks. Very honest, very smooth sale.

Torrance - Made me a good deal without specifics, but would have taken 4 months to deliever.

Huntington Beach, Long Beach, Garden Grove, Cerritos - "We can't get you you a Z for 4-6 months/until next year." (LB dealer laughed when I asked about the Z.)

Irvine - Offered me "MSRP" on DB AT which I didn't want. But I found out later they required the buyer to pay for their added wheels and paint protection scam.

Buena Park - Strung me along, wasted hours of my time, and got me into showroom, only to tell me that I'd have to pay "at least 3000 extra" for the same crap as Irvine, and still called it MSRP.
