Was looking for a Z Performance, did all negotiating on the phone. The salesman Matt was really terrific and replied to all my calls and texts. I would definitely buy a car from him from another dealership the phone. The salesman Matt was really terrific and replied to all my calls and texts. I would definitely buy a car from him from another dealership and definitely not from Venice Nissan. As I said Matt was great but must listen to what management says. They show 7 Z's all 2024 leftovers and no 2025's and with their managers you can understand why. After many texts back and forth they did offer $11k off MSRP but found ways to make it up such as their useless Platinum Package for $2495 which they refused to eliminate, offered me $3k less for my trade the other dealer offered me, their dealer prep is $1299 almost $400 more, private agency fee $299 other $0, electronic filing fee $599 almost $400 more, plus other fees. I got a 2025 for only a few $$'s more with no Platinum type package (nitrogen, headlight cleaning, a/c refresh, etc all fluff) and $3k more for my trade and got a 2025 instead of 2024. Matt did work hard for me but his manager Cody would not budge when I stated remove the Platinum Package and make up the trade difference, a big NO from Cody. Only reason was thinking the 2024 vs the 2025 that I purchased was the color combo of the 2024. But worked out better as I got a 1 year newer car (no real changes between 2024 and 2025 but value higher). No wonder Venice Nissan has 7 2024 leftovers and no 2025, big sign on their store under new ownership, bought a 350 years ago from previous ownership who was good, you can tell how these new owners are by the way they stack prices. For a Nissan look elsewhere. Again I wish to thank Matt for really trying his best, sorry I could not purchase from you. You were great, trying for the customer while your manager Cody and dealership could care less. Makes one wonder if the service department is more like you who cares for the customer or more like management who only looks to earn more $$ for services not needed. More
