Anybody know a good dealership in the seal beach, cerritios, anaheim, fullerton Area?

 

Try Mission V or Tustin avoid Costa Mesa.

 

I bought my G35 from Costa Mesa, and the only good thing was the Fleet Mgr, who gave me a good deal, with no BS. Everything else (ie Service Dept)about that dealership has been a PITA!

 

Tustin from what I hear beats all of them. But thier selection of inventory sucks and they always receive thier inventory later than other dealers. Service department is what I hear good things about.

 

Bought mines from Montclair. Wide selections...man they have a 2 lots full of them. Salesperson named Mike Gomez. They honor carsdirect.com price then you get to bargain with them afterwards. They even sent me a fern!! tight...too bad it wasn't something I could've smoked. haha

 

Ditto. Buy from Costa Mesa - Service at Tustin. Done deal.

 

Exactly! Sales dept is crap at Tustin but service is the best around (IMO).

 

Good info on Tustin Service. Thanks.

I'm closer to Tustin anyways so driving all the way to Costa Mesa for service would just be ... weird.

 

Anybody want to offer some tips on getting the best price on an 05?

Ill probably end up buyin from costa mesa. This salesperson gary seems like a pretty a-okay dude, no pressure or anything plus he gave me some tips on how to avoid the high apr of their own finance dept. But some advice from you guys would be most appreciated.

 

I'm not familiar with Gary... I dealt with the Internet sales associates initially, then went down in person to seal the deal. I dealt with Frank Caringella by email for pricing - he was unbeatable... I went to the dealership and from there worked with Patrick Shiroh, who worked hard to get better financing than I came in with. Both were exceptional and made my buying experience a pleasure. I couldn’t have been happier.

When it came to service on the other hand - it could not have been worse - three f-ups in a row and I haven’t been back since.

The only advice I can give is the usual - do some research and find out what the going prices are for the model & options you are interested in - get the invoice price if you can... then email the guys I mentioned and ask if they can get you in (insert model and option here) for (insert price you are looking for)... it worked for me.

Here are the email addresses

Frank Caringella - email: caringellaf@autonation.com
Patrick Shiroh - email: yamadap@autonation.com

Good luck.

 

Thanks for tip there ocg35! Think ill give it a shot and see what happens. Gary is a nice guy n all but hell if i can save my *** some $$ by going thru the internet, thats what ill do.

Sorry for jackin your thread there USI

 

It's cool, glad its helping you!
