Niello Acura loyal customer for over 10 years! I have had Acuras now for over 23 years. I think I will never buy another type of car! Niello Acura is the best dealership I have ever been to- both I have had Acuras now for over 23 years. I think I will never buy another type of car! Niello Acura is the best dealership I have ever been to- both sales and service. Chris Knutson in sales is fantastic- even fun, to work with- don't want his head to get too big - I notice most everyone has a great experience with him. Gary Smedsted in service is very conscientious and wants to make sure things are done right for you, the customer. I leased an RDX, and has some minor issues with the upholstery- which was handled professionally and everything possible was done to fix it. The car is great! I still miss my old 2005 MDX which was my lifetime best car. Unfortunately I traded it in for a Prius last year, with a terrible experience at Roseville Toyota- the car was awful, and so I quickly went back to Niello Acura and got another RDX and am happy again. Not as good of mpg as a Prius, but a million times better car. More

After a less than stellar experience at Roseville Toyota, I headed down to Niello Acura. I was greeted by Chris, who was friendly, knowledgeable and was able to help me find the car I really wanted. He was I headed down to Niello Acura. I was greeted by Chris, who was friendly, knowledgeable and was able to help me find the car I really wanted. He was not pushy and was respectful of my time. I was disappointed when he was not available on the day I actually purchased my car but the other staff were professional as well. I would certainly shop at this dealership again and ask for Chris.

We went back to Niello Acura for a second look. We called Chris Knutson who assisted at our first visit. Had a great experience; considering car-buying can be grueling.

He is very loyal to the Acura line; and also very knowledgeable. He was very pleasant to work with. Chris was genuinely enthusiastic. He was never pushy; answered all our questions. His test drives are the best! His route allows you to get a good feel for how the car handles. He provided time and space for my husband I to talk in private; never feeling rushed. Both my husband and I have recommend Chris to our family and friends. Thank you making this a pleasant experience. More

Buying a car can be daunting, but I had a great experience at Niello Acura. If you really want to test drive a car with a knowledgable sales guy, go find Chris Knutsen at Neillo Acura. He does an e experience at Niello Acura. If you really want to test drive a car with a knowledgable sales guy, go find Chris Knutsen at Neillo Acura. He does an excellent job of demonstrating the various features and creating different real life scenarios. I've never experienced such a thorough, detailed and educational test drive in my life. Elizabeth Garcia in Finance was awesome too. Very friendly and thorough. After I bought the car, Chris took a lot of time showing me how to use all the features and also made himself available afterwards for questions. These newer cars are great with all the fancy features but can be complicated to figure out, so it's great to work with someone who doesn't forget about you after the sale is done. I would definitely recommend Chris if you are in the market for a car! More
