The best car buying experience I have ever had! The entire staff was extremely pleasant, professional, and I can't express enough how great and easy the whole process was. My salesperson Mark was a pleasure and Gene "Cougar" Morris the general manager is by far the best there is! This is the only place I will ever buy from again! Thank You!

I bought my Nissan at a different dealership but took my vehicle here to be serviced due to convenience. They treated me like I had been one of their clients. Excellent experience. My vehicle will be serviced here for its entire lifespan.

Zach was amazing, and everyone we talked to in the dealership from the front desk, the internet team, all the way back to the service department were extremely welcoming and friendly. They even let my 4 year old son hit the gong which he loved and is still talking about. Overall an amazing experience and I would recommend this dealership and Zachary Herman to anyone looking at getting a new Nissan.

Went in for vehicle service today. Was greeted by Sean in the service dept. This guy is an ACE!! Such a gentleman, and very nice. He went out of his way to take care of an issue, not with my car or about my car, but something that I had forgot in my car once the car was ready to be taken on back to the service area. I was inside waiting and just happen to remember that I had forgot my husband's gun in my car. (A gun that I bought from my dad for him-would kill me if anything ever happened to the gun)
I went back out to the service receiving area where Sean was and asked if he could do me

Purchased 2 cars in one day...Our salesman Jonathan came in on his day off to help us. He is AWESOME! Got to spend some time speaking with the owner and he's an amazing man. If you need a car...go see them! Nissan is a great quality and value and I have to say...It was my best buying experience ever. Much better than Ted Russell Nissan....make the trip to Clinton Hwy! You won't be sorry!

This was the best car buying experience Ive ever had. Everyone worked hard to get me what I wanted. Alex was patient and kind. I at no time felt pressured to purchase. Highly recommend Rusty Wallace Nissan for a pleasurable experience. I love my Kicks!!
