I posted this in the Buying & leasing forum, but that board moves slowly so I decided to post it here also...

Has anyone here purchased a car from Fresno Infiniti, a dealership in Fresno, CA? That dealership is about 50 miles from where I live(the closest also) and I was just wondering if anyone here has dealt with them and what their experience has been like.

Thank you.

 

Their selection is few and scarce and they're a hard bargain.... just go their to test drive but buy elswhere if you can... My folks live there, in fresno, so I go there often.... go internet... autonation.com for socal dealers

 

Took my 04 to Fresno Infiniti for the 3/36K brake warranty, they replaced the front pads and rotors without blinking an eye. Gave me a sedan to drive, and called me back in 4 hrs to say my car was ready. Great service!
Though I rarely frequent dealerships for service unless it is for a warranty issue.
They stick pretty much to the list prices from what I can tell. Not a lot to bargain for. But they have no competition either.
At least they treat you like a human being compared to the local BMW dealer.
Good advice on the autonation, etc. We bought our Acura online by emailing almost every dealer in CA. It's was worth it.

 

Well, my folks live on the coast in the Monterey/Salinas area, so I will try to find a dealer closer to there, because there are no other Infiniti dealers within 100 miles of me. I will also give autonation.com a try, thank you.

 

I tried autonation, but they only showed 3 dealers in a 200 miles radius, and I know there are more than that, even Fresno Infiniti isn't on there, do they only list people they are affiliated.

 

Try Costco http://www.costcoauto.com/index.asp?...index%2Easp%3F

If you're a member, the discount could be enough where you could rent a car and drive to the participating dealer, pick up your car and drive your baby home.

 

Try emailing dealers directly too.. attention to fleet or finance mgr.
You would be surprised how many will respond with some attractive offers.
We ended up picking up a new Acura in Palm Springs and saving around $700 bucks. Not much, but our plane trip was only 250, and they picked us up at the Ontario airport. We made a small vacation driving our new baby home.

 

i love fresno infiniti, ive been to riverside infiniti and the service sucks and they treat you like you dont really matter, fresno on the other hand is the complete opposite, talk to carey hes the nicest associate ive ever met

 

If you are on the coast, why not go to San Jose I can think of 3 infiniti dealers around that will have a large selection of cars to choose from.

 

Whoa, thank you, this was a great idea.

 

Yeah, I tried the costco route too but had no luck so i went the autonation route and thats how i got my 05 ip 6md sedan w/ premium A cause no one else in norcal had the options i wanted... i would have paid $500 plus more through costco even if a local dealer had the color and options i wanted.... the drive back from socal in the g was well worth the trip...
