Customer Testimonials

I was stuck on the side of the highway trying to get back to Atlanta. Was towed to Nissan. Johnny was so helpful and got me back on the road home less than 2 hours.

A dead battery was replaced for no cost as it was purchased new in December from Illini Nissan

To sum it up, I'd say they made the car buying experience easy. The smaller size of the dealership makes you feel like they know you and care about your experience. This is the second Nissan I've purchased at Illini Nissan. Neither time did I feel like I was being pressured to buy. I took my time, they kept in touch, but they did not pester me while I was making my decision. They seem to understand it's a big expenditure and therefore a big decision. That was very much appreciated. I worked with Lauren and Wes; ...



We started out our morning in Bloomington and was going to buy another Toyota Rava 4 to replace the one we had, and we were treated poorly by a salesman, so we left. We had the best experience at this dealership. We were greeted on the parking lot by David Neef who was extremely helpful. The sales department around was an asset for this dealership. We had a good experience negotiating on our new car. In fact, we been telling all of our friends that was the place to go! We were introduced to everyone after we purchased our car in ...



This dealership is amazing, Emily and Gary made purchasing my sexy new ride a breeze all the way in Texas. They even picked us up at the airport and filled up the fuel tank. Thank you so much absolutely love my 2016 cadillac cts.

5 star all the way. I found my perfect car on the internet through this dealership. Emily and Gary made purchasing over the phone from Texas easy. They even picked us up at the airport and filled up the fuel tank. Thank you so much for making it easy to pick up my sexy new ride. 2016 cadillac cts!!!!!

Gary is great. He has been my guy for years.


What a great dealership to work with! Purchased our vehicle through the internet and everyone from salesperson to finance was a true pleasure to work with! Highly recommended.

Good Service

It was a recall got me in the next day after calling took care of issue in and out half hour.

Friendly and supportive staff made the process of buy my first new car fast and easy!

They had great amenities for the customer. David Neef was awesome. He made sure I knew about my vehicle as well as taking me on a tour of the facility. He was very informative and made my experience amazing. When I visit napleton, I didn’t feel as welcome as I did at Nissan. David you are so awesome in what you do which is helping the confused buyers like myself!!! Thank you again!!! I love my 23 NISSAN ALTIMA💖💖

Very friendly, no pressure and even allowed my dog to go in a test drive with us. I could not have had a better experience!!!

I scheduled an appointment online, when I got to Illini Nissian they couldn't find my appointment. Joel was VERY helpful in finding it. He got me in, the found the problem and had me on my way in no time! Thank you!


This dealership was very helpful when I was settling my mom's estate - they made it a simple and striaghtforward process to sell her car and settle the paperwork - much appreciated during a time of sadness but with so many details needing to be taken care of - highly recommend.

Lauren is amazing! I have always purchased from Nissan dealers and when we moved I was worried I wouldn’t recognize the same level of customer service as I did at my previous dealer. I was wrong! From the start Lauren was kind, funny, attentive, super helpful and just overall super awesome! I’m so happy with my new Kicks!

Had a flat tire passing through Champaign went to Illini Nissan after they closed. Service manager was great and had our tire fixed. Everywhere was closed and we really appreciate this dealership.

Great experience from beginning to end. Felicia in scheduling got us scheduled quickly and was super friendly. Eric, salesman, went above and beyond when showing us the vehicle we were interested in and Wes from financing made the purchasing process transparent and easy. No pressure, very easy going environment. Thank you so much, we'll be back for sure!

First class service! I bought my Nissan Rogue from Illini Nissan one year ago. I love my car! I’ve had the oil changed and tires rotated twice now and it is the easiest and fastest service I’ve ever had!

Great customer service and great team to assist.

I was really impressed with the sales team, especially Eric G. He really listened to what I was looking for, only showed me cars that fit that criteria, and knew a lot about them. I didn't get spammy emails or texts - just solid, helpful communication. I didn't end up buying a car here, but I wanted to leave a review to say that was it was a great experience and next time I'm shopping for a car, I'll start at Illini Nissan first.

We've had our 2018 Rogue serviced here a few times now and every time has been great. I've worked with Gary most of the time I've been here and he's straightforward, helpful, and a good communicator. If you have an issue with your Nissan and you're not sure what's going on it, just come here! I took the car to another mechanic who overstated the issues with our car, and I'm so glad I took it here before having work done. These folks are honest and will not try to fix or replace anything ...

The sales staff are amazing! Eric ensured the delivery of my Altima was perfect. Kim took care of the financing details impeccably. All around incredible experience!

Chuck Collins is one of the best salesperson to ever deal with! Makes the buying experience a pleasant one!

I was extremely satisfied with my experience at Illini Nissan. Eric and Kim helped me through the process of my purchase. Eric is very friendly, knowledgeable, understanding and made sure I understood all features of my purchase before I bought it. As I was new to this process, he explained everything very well and made me feel comfortable through the process of my purchase. After I made my purchase he checked in periodically to make sure I was still satisfied and see if could help with any issues or questions. Kim is very friendly and helped me through the financial ...

I had a great experience at Illini Nissan. They were highly communicative with appointment reminders before the service and texted updates during the service as well. Everyone was friendly and professional.

Staff were all fantastic. Gary is great!

We had our Nissan Rogue break down in the middle of a trip. Illini Nissan actually had a rental car so we could continue on our trip. They did a great job communicating with us about the issues with our car and were very helpful! I would highly recommend them to anyone.



My recent experience at Illini Nissan was great. I had an unfortunate situation, and all the employees at Illini helped turn my day around and assisted me in purchasing a car that suited my wants and needs in a vehicle. They were kind, professional, considerate, and knowledgeable. I appreciated the help from Gary, Kim, and especially Eric. Eric and Kim even followed up with me to ensure I made it to my destination okay and to see if I had any questions regarding my new car. Great Nissan and great people working there!

Nicole and Amber in parts. As well as Mindy in service were both spectacular!

I did not end up buying a car, I instead chose to keep my current one, but Efrem was a great salesman. He was super nice and worked really hard to understand my wants and needs and was overall a great guy.

Our salesman made our transaction seamless!!! Very professional, organized, and kind!

Eric was a very helpful salesperson as was the finance lady. Actually everyone we came in contact with was extremely helpful and polite from the first visit, purchase visit as well as the day we came back to get windshield treated.

Cars are hard to find these days and I was happy that Illini Nissan worked with me even though I was out of state and was flexible with their schedule as I arrived later than expected. I really appreciated the time they took after the purchase was done to go over all the features of the car with me.

Battery died and called to see if I could get my truck serviced. They were on the verge of closing but made time to put a new battery in and get me back on the road.

Hands down one of the BEST experiences I have ever had at a dealership!!! Dave and everyone there went above and beyond!!! The best part about the whole experience… they all worked so well together! I have not experienced service like this in a very long time!!! Thanks so much Illini Nissan!! You guys ROCK!

Diagnosis only at this time. Disappointing news, but no fault of Illini Nissan. Staff was great.

Excellent service as usual. Keep up the excellent work. Thanks!!!


Bought a new 2022 from Brad Taylor, he was very professional and polite the whole time,


Everything went smooth and quick. I have had nothing but good experiences with buying and servicing vehicles here. This recent time I found a small scratch on my car that I am certain was not there prior to my service, but I have no proof that it happened there.

Had a piece of metal in my tire. Had to replace.



Mindy was awesome. I didnt have to wait long. Place was clean. I love it here. I will be back



Mindy was great!

The service department got my vehicle serviced quickly. In and out in about 30 minutes.

I came in for a oil change. Upon walking in Mindy greeted me by name which made me feel good. She’s always so friendly when i come in.

A very professional experience with the company! Would definitely recommend


My truck has never received service at any other dealer. We always use Illini Nissan

This was honestly the best experience I have ever had. Not only was everything priced fairly but truly everyone here was extremely kind and had a wonderful attitude. Even when I was sitting in the waiting area, I could here the interactions between employees and they were super kind and nice to each other. They also have a car service to pick you up and drop you off if your car will take a long time, for free (also very fast, no wait for me)! I could not be happier and I will only go here from now on. They ...

Eric Graham was my sales person and he made my experience so easy! He was so helpful. It was my first time buying a car and he walked me through the process with amazing patience. I was happy to give my business to Eric and the rest of the Nissan crew and I highly recommend them for your future car buying experience!


Eric Graham was my car salesman and has helped me with over the last 3 years. He has been amazing, honest, and upstanding. I always enjoy my time at Nissan.

I have a small collection of cars, and recently purchased another one from Illini Nissan. This was not my first rodeo. All interactions with the staff were pleasant and professional. * no games or posturing * efficient handling of transaction paperwork * I received regular status updates throughout the process * car was delivered to my front door


Great! My contact person was amazing.

Service with a smile whatever you need they can help you


Gary is great!

Just bought a brand new Rogue Sport for my son's 19th Birthday Day!!! Great Day!!!! and a wonderful experience.

Perfect drop off and pickup


Not only do I feel I got a fair value for the work the work was done exceptionally well. I didn't realize how much the work needed to be done until it was, and greatly appreciate everything. I feel everything recommended was necessary. I was also beyond thrilled with the efforts to make sure my financing was correct even though Illini Nissan was not at all at fault for the situation. While I would have preferred to not involve them, the far far exceeded my expectations and won my loyalty as long as I am in the area.


I was very pleased with Dave Neef who helped me with the purchase of a 2021 Nissan Kicks. So polite & helpful through the entire process!! Rate him a 10 on a scale of 1-10 (the latter being the highest score). Also the sales manager, Garry Vaughn, was great too.

Lauren and Gary were amazing! After a lifetime of having a family dealership, car shopping was a new thing for us. Lauren was super informative, friendly, and not pushy at all. Gary gave us numbers right away for us to take to make our decision. We went back this evening, and were treated like family. The staff at Illini Nissan is genuine and welcoming. We came home with a 2021 Nissan Rogue! I can't wait to go back for my first car wash and say Hi!

Zach, the salesman listened to what I was looking for. He found the exact color inside and out, with more amenities then I expected. My schedule changed the day i said i would pick up the car. The finance person stayed passed the closing time and made sure I understood all aspects of the purchase. Great experience.

I drove up from georgia and my ac compressor seized which caused the serpentine belt to be torn on saturday afternoon. Nissan Illini fixed it on Monday quickly to make me drive back home. Thanks guys for the quick service


Mindy was very helpful and knowledgeable.

Excellent customer service

Zack is awesome. This person is knowledgable about every bit and piece of a Nissan. Zack is super friendly, helpful, and respectful. I enjoyed doing business and communicating with Zack. Definitely the go to person if you are interested in buying a Nissan.



I typically never write reviews however my experiences I felt as though needed to be shared. I was employed with Illini Nissan for roughly 5 months. During this time I faced a lot of life challenges in which lead to me leaving the position. However I will say it time in time again, Illini Nissan has THE BEST MANAGEMENT TEAM I HAVE EVER SEEN. The entire time I was there, any challenge I faced, they were there to support me. They are simply some of the most understanding people I think you will ever meet in a workplace. They care about ...

Everyone at Illini Nissan was amazing, I never felt pressured and they walked me through the whole process, a big Thank you to Lauren and Linda. Highly recommend Illini Nissan

Very thorough and great service as usual!

My expectations have been to receive superb service which is what I received from Gary and his team once again.


The staff at Illini Nissan went above and beyond the gold standard. The people I dealt with: Zach, Andy and Kim were all very personable, friendly, knowledgeable and honest. I appreciate the timely manner in which they put everything together to make my experience top rate. Thank you Illini Nissan!!



I had an oil change and tire rotation done. Overall an excellent job. Will be back

Gary McCaskill consistently supplies excellent service each time I have my car serviced. He is very knowledgeable, professional, and friendly. Rick Swearingen

We always receive excellent service @ Illini Nissan! Mendy is an Awesome service advisor!
