I had a great experience working with Bob at Walser Nissan. He was professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely easy to work with from start to finish. What stood out most was the lack of pressure, he focused on answering my questions, walking me through options, and helping me make the right decision rather than trying to “sell” me something.
Bob was transparent, responsive, and respectful of my time, which made the entire process smooth and straightforward. It’s clear he values building trust and doing things the right way. I’d absolutely recommend working with Bob if you’re looking for a positive, no-nonsense car buying experience.

The thing I liked most was they serviced all that was needed so I could buy confidently without worrying about if it needed something right away.
Everyone was very friendly, patient and took the time to explain everything in detail. From talking to the
gentleman who surveyed my Subaru to the gent who helped get financing up and going, everyone was very
helpful and nice.
The only reason for not getting a 5 star is that no one ever talked to me about payments, like where I'll be
sending them or how they'll work out. It's all good, I was able to contact the credit union and talk with them,
but that could be something to add in when finishing up selling a vehicle
Nov 16, 2025
Very responsive. Very knowledgeable. Bought the car.
Jul 15, 2025
They sold this car to someone else after the credit app was approved and I opened and insurance policy for this vehicle. The sales manager texted me as I was driving over to pick it up and made it sound like it was my fault. He gave me the most insincere apology and offered me a coupon on my next purchase with him. Which, I assure you, will never happen.
Apr 5, 2025
The dealer responded and kept in contact offering any and all help. Great customer service.
Feb 2, 2025
Helpful. I will test drive in a month or two

No room for negotiations, was told the car came with charging cable more than once and was not in the car when we left the lot. They did charge it the night before so we could test drive it before buying. Would probably go a different route if buying a new car again. Personal opinion.

The dealer did respond in a timely way. I just felt the truck was a bit over priced, seeing that it has
some rust.
Jun 21, 2023
Nice sales person but not impressed with car
I spoke with Kat and asked if their Cargurus price is the out the door price. She said the dealer is upfront
about their pricing but that does not include the dealer fees. We spoke on the phone and I asked the same
question and she said there was an additional 2 grand or so for taxes and fees. I then emailed her to confirm
in writing, that I would be paying the listed price plus the 2 grand in taxes and fees total. And she
backtracked and said the fees would be between 2 - 4 thousand and she had no way of knowing the amount
until I completed my financing application. I told her any dealer can tell me what their dealer fee is. So in the
end she refused to tell me their fees and went back on what she told me over the phone. Then the manager
contacted me and said the car is sold. It's still listed for sale on cargurus and they wasted a lot of my time.
Nov 15, 2020
Very helpful
Aug 25, 2020
Sales staff was professional and knowledgeable about the car. Answered all my questions. Great to work with.
Apr 29, 2020
Cody contacted me immediately and scheduled a test drive same day! He walked me through every detail of the car and the Walser experience. Really appreciate them doing this during these unusual times.
Mar 19, 2020
Mike Benincasa was amazing to work with. Super helpful and got everything done quickly. Paperwork was fast and easy! Stayed in constant contact and very knowledgeable :)

It was well done.

Nice vehicles, nice sales rep.
Feb 28, 2019
Very knowledgeable and great to work with! Ask for Avery, she does a great job!
Dec 7, 2018
I came 70 minutes before closing, and ended up waiting until 5 minutes before official closing due to recent warranty contract changes, due to no fault of the dealer. We then got to finish the paperwork significantly past the official closing which means a lot, so that I didn't have to make another trip down there. Thanks to their outstanding team I was still able to finish the purchase, despite unforseen delays.

Dec 22, 2018
Response from current dealership:
That's great to hear, Joe! Thanks for the 5 star review!
The dealer sent me several emails saying they couldn’t get a hold of me. Not sure why the information to my question wasn’t getting through because the emails that said “they couldn’t get through” we’re getting through. ????
Dec 22, 2018
Response from current dealership:

Response from current dealership:
That's great to hear! Thanks for rating us 5 stars!
The car was placed online with no pictures. I emailed my interest and within an hour I had pictures in my inbox. I dealt with Alex and he was a pleasure. I went for the test drive and bought the car the next day. The whole experience was second to none with no pressure neither. I will definitely head back there if I am ever in the market for a Nissan or if they have a used motor I’m Interested in.
May 14, 2018
Response from current dealership:
That's great to hear, Karl! We're glad to know that Alex was fast and attentive to your needs. We look forward to working with you again!
May 10, 2018
I would rate this dealership 5 stars. This is an excellent dealership with quality
inventory and moreover one thing i noticed with dealership was they want the
customer to be happy and when they say that they mean it. The whole
transaction i did was handled very nicely. The prices here are competitive and
they non negotiable. So if you like it you can take it or leave it . This saves us
lot of time.
May 10, 2018
Response from current dealership:
That's great to hear! Customer satisfaction is deeply important to us because we know you have the choice to shop anywhere. It is our hope that our customers' experience with us is so great that you'll want to come back again and again. We're very glad that was the case for you. Thank you!
Apr 22, 2018
Everyone at Walswr Wayzata was prodessional, helpful, and experienced. Our salesman Jake Miller answered all of our questions & ensured our experience was a good one. We purchased the Nissan Versa and couldn't be more pleased.
Apr 23, 2018
Response from current dealership:
That's wonderful to hear, Brianne! We're glad you had a great experience, and we look forward to working with you again!

Experience was ok,our sales rep Eric was very good to work with.
Apr 9, 2018
Response from current dealership:
Don - We're very happy to hear you enjoyed working with Eric! We'd love to know what else we could do to make your experience worthy of 5 stars. Feedback helps us improve, which is why we really appreciate this review. Thank you!
Called in to check if vechicle was still available, walser representative informed it was available. Took an appointment immediately and stop at showroom and they informed some other lady just showed up and is interested in vehicle.
Unnecessary waste of trip to Walser. This is neither a positive or negative review. Just dropping my experience with Walser.
Mar 1, 2018
Response from current dealership:

Nov 23, 2017
Salesman didn't knew anything about the car. Showed me the wrong car, I asked him if he can check his email and see what car I emailed about, after he left me a voice mail earlier that day. After test driving the car he asked me how will the car be paid for and I said I'm going through my bank that I work at and he said we would have to check your credit score even if I bring a cashier's check from the bank I never heard that before never will I go back here don't waste your time.
Nov 29, 2017
Response from current dealership:

Thank you for the great review, William!
Jun 26, 2017
They didn't answer my question, they just sent me the info on their website which I could already see.
Jun 7, 2017
Dealer responded quickly via both phone and email. Prices are set in stone. Since I was shopping nation wide I new I could find the vehicle at a lower price and I did.
May 28, 2017
Friendly and helpful. Joe was AWESOME.
May 6, 2017
Bought this car. Excellent.
I did not go to this dealer. I contacted over E-mail I will say the response was within 3 hours but my request was not answered. I asked if someone could send some photos of the vehicle. I was sent generic stock photos. After that I then looked at the the dealer website and the car had a 3k mark up. Yes I do like to mess with used car dealers but not when they mark the price up like that.
Apr 19, 2017
Great
Apr 13, 2017
Alex from Wayzata Nissan is a very responsive dealer. I enjoyed speaking with Alex.
Apr 8, 2017
Very helpful, but also no negotiating on price.
Mar 20, 2017
The Dealer did respond promptly.
Feb 21, 2017
Alex Zevelev was great to work with! We ended up buying the truck and the
process at Wayzata Nissan was a no hassle experience. Highly
recommeded!
Feb 6, 2017
There was no pressure to buy . Kevin was very knowledgeable. He was
very curtious and answered all our questions. We would highly recommend
this dealer to buy a car
Jan 13, 2017
Quick response! Tom Rusch was very helpful and did a great job working with all his customers on a very busy day!
Dec 29, 2016
Dan responded to my inquiry expeditiously via email. Very knowledgeable
about their inventory. Over the years, my little sister and family have been
going to Wayzata Nissan for service on their vehicles and have been very
satisfied with their department too!
Dec 27, 2016
Friendly fast to respond to my inquiry.
Dec 3, 2016
We purchased our vehicle here. Joe, our salesman, was
excellent. He was willing to compare a car fax report for us from
another dealer to the one we were looking at there. That was
super helpful. Both he and the finance representative were
respectful and not pushy. I would definitely buy my next car
from Joe.
Nov 29, 2016
Knowledgeable and quick response
Nov 23, 2016
I dealt with Jake, the new car sales manager, and he was terrific. This is the sixth car we have purchased from Wayzata Nissan and we have been more than pleased with each of the purchases. Exceptional service and courtesy all the way through.
Nov 18, 2016
Paul was cool
They need to clean the place up. Very little customer parking and confusing
parking lot. They seem to have the best deals but their offer on a trade in
was on the low side. They offered 7000 and another Nissan dealer offered
7500 for a car I was trading in. Both offers were 15-2500 less than the car
could sell for. They make their best money on used cars.
Oct 30, 2016
My husband and I were in the market for a slightly used SUV. We looked
at Car Gurus on the internet and saw a 2015 Nissan Pathfinder Platinum
at Wayzata Nissan that we really liked, so we contacted the dealership to
set up an appointment to see and drive the car. Unfortunately the car
had already been sold before we got to Wayzata Nissan. But we were
told about several other Pathfinder Platinum on the premises. We test
drove a few and decided to buy a 2015 Nissan Pathfinder Platinum with
17,800 miles. It is also black. Our salesperson, Kyle Nelson, was great.
He answered all of our questions and did his best to accommodate our
buying decision without being pushy. Everyone at the dealership was
friendly and met all of our needs. We will definitely recommend Wayzata
Nissan to our friends and family!
Oct 29, 2016
Alex is Excellent.
Oct 21, 2016
It was great smooth and easy
Sep 5, 2016
The dealership got back to me much faster than I had imagined it would it's A4 hour round trip so I want to make sure that the vehicle I'm interested in is really grabbing my attention thanks again for your customer service
Aug 24, 2016
Recommend working with Kyle Nelson, He follows up
Aug 17, 2016
Excellent response by e-mail.
Aug 15, 2016
I was treated very well by the sales person and the finance manager. They understand the business and were able to get us out and on the road in a few hours. This is a volume dealer and their prices reflect that and are not negotiable. They are fair on their trade in pricing and will help with financing, a very good experience overall.
Aug 12, 2016
Online the dealer did a pretty good job, responded quickly and answered
questions. When I went to the dealership, I wasn't greeted and no reps
came to meet me. Went out on the lot and found a salesman going to
move a car. Before I could talk to him he said if I wanted help I'd have to
go inside and ask for someone. When I did talk to a salesman the
answers were vague and really added no value to the decision making.
We had seen a car on the website and was told it hadn't arrived but
should be in by Monday and he would call as soon as it arrived. 5 days
later and no contact. We'll go to another dealership.
Aug 11, 2016
Answered all of my questions and helped me find what I was looking for.
Aug 11, 2016
Responded fairly quickly with "Sold" and that was it. No interest in helping me further to find another vehicle
Jul 29, 2016
Excellent experience. Responded to my email and phone calls. I purchased the car I wanted and am having it shipped to my home. Salesman Bob was very helpful.!!
Jul 21, 2016
very prompt, followed up timely a number of times... I would use to
purchase when the time came.
Jul 9, 2016
Veteran, experienced sales team with full vehicle disclosure. Excellent experience!
Jul 1, 2016
They were great. One sales person helped with the new automobiles while another person helped with used.
Jun 9, 2016
Great! Followed up with a phone call and email right away. Tom Rusch provided a great personal & professional experience. I ended up buying this vehicle from this dealership! I had no doubts that I was dealing with a reliable and trustworthy place of business.
Jun 3, 2016
The car arrived with many damages that NEVER disclosed
before also, the process of getting out of state license and
tags never mentioned. Overall, the experience has been
horrible and at the end there is NO saving. Just LOSS of
money!
May 21, 2016
Excellent experience.
May 18, 2016
Prompt response and fair.
Apr 20, 2016
Bob contacted me right away. Said the store spent $2000.00 on the car , but was not quite sure on all aspects of recondition. Did not sound like my trade was worth looking at. Live in Buffalo hard to get down there. Wife is not sure about black interior.
Apr 18, 2016
Ok, quick reply to email request and additional follow up emails.
Apr 14, 2016
Solid inventory and prices, extremely
unfair trade-in assesments, was offered
2800 (15% in this case) less on my 2013
Cadillac than another dealership in
Bloomington. Beware.
Apr 3, 2016
Wrote to inquire about a car and
Paul called me back right away
and was very knowledgeable
about the vehicle and even
answered other questions I had
about other makes and models. I
didn't end up buying a car here
but I was impressed by the
prompt reply!
Mar 24, 2016
Fast response to email. They are firm on
their prices.
Mar 16, 2016
good
Mar 15, 2016
Ended up visiting the dealer on multiple days to look at
different used cars I was interested in. Eventually buying
from them. I liked the process and never felt pressured to
purchase a specific, vehicle or any of the extras any dealer
is going to offer you.
Mar 11, 2016
Lied about the car being ok when
in fact it had multiple problems.
Disappointed to say the least.
Feb 21, 2016
Very very slow response
Feb 21, 2016
Kept me informed about the cars in which I was interested.
Feb 21, 2016
smart, and knowledgable about the car i was interested in. very good
follow-up and engagement with customer.
Dec 28, 2015
Good experience. Bought the car I wanted with a minimum of fuss. No pressure, very helpful. Joe Trihn and Wayzata Nissan gets 5 stars from me.
Dec 13, 2015
Great experience. Stopped by and tried this car - it was sold when we called back 4 days later.
Dec 12, 2015
Great customer service
Dec 1, 2015
Very efficient New and used car agents
Nov 16, 2015
Great very friendly
Oct 21, 2015
Very good and no pressure.
Oct 14, 2015
They answered my questions quickly and set up a time for me to
test drive the car. Paul was great to work with and was very
informative. Great experience.
Oct 5, 2015
The dealer kept trying to show me a different car than what
was online. When I got there in person, it turns out the car
was sold. Crowded and dirty dealership, with lots of waiting
and being made to feel like I was inconvenient. Avoid this
dealership if you can.
Oct 3, 2015
Car was listed but they said it was sold.
Aug 26, 2015
Great selection, great service, and
bought a car
Aug 11, 2015
Got back to me very quickly. The car was already sold, so that was a disappointment.
Jul 30, 2015
Dealer advertised a vehicle at a
price and did not disclose it had
hail damage. I did not find out
about the hail damage until well
into the deal and after many
discussions with the sales rep.
They were unwilling to discount
the vehicle due to the previously
undisclosed hail damage and
stated if they fix the hail damage
will want a higher price! Took my
business elsewhere.
Jul 23, 2015
Exceptional service. These folks really take going the extra mile seriously. They went above and beyond to make the purchase experience as smooth and 'trauma-free' as was possible in their control. I would highly recommend them.
Jul 8, 2015
Didn't use then as they didn't match me
for the car I wanted.
Jun 25, 2015
Won't stop emailing me
Jun 7, 2015
Didn't get to see any cars I
wanted too, when yet other
people would just walk in and be
helped
May 2, 2015
the two cars we drove were not clean; so many vehicles in the lot
hard to maneuver through; hard to identify entrance
Apr 15, 2015
We were happy with the price and service we got when buying our
car. I wish we could have gotten more on the tradein for our car.
Mar 27, 2015
Got back to me quickly but not very informative
Mar 24, 2015
It has been a wonderful experience to this point. I am scheduled to fly to MN on 3/36/15 to pick up the vehicle and complete the sale.
Mar 7, 2015
Drove 200 miles to buy a vehicle here, glad I did.
Feb 9, 2015
Jack was my salesman. He responded
back within two minutes of emailing him
after hours about an STi. The deal
ended up not working out, but I was
blown away with the customer service.
Feb 1, 2015
Terrible! Unprofessional and dishonest!
Jan 31, 2015
Saw car on Line, great price, great service, John D was awesome.
Jan 31, 2015
Received a prompt response from Paul.
They have an incredible selection and
the best prices in town.
Jan 3, 2015
multiple robot e-mails. The dealer never took my offer seriously.
Dec 31, 2014
They probably did not notice that I was in Calfornia . I believe the
search engine that connected my request to the dealership in
Minesota was totally wrong.
Nov 1, 2014
Very friendly and helpful. Bought a Nissan Murano and love it!!
Oct 13, 2014
I inquired about a car they had online. It was several days before I
was able to talk to them because the salesman didn't get back to me.
I was inquiring about the value of my trade-in. He low-balled me. I'll
look elsewhere.
Oct 2, 2014
Dennis was very patient and helpful.
However, Hasan, in their finance
department was dishonest and very
disrespectful.
Sep 29, 2014
OK
Sep 25, 2014
loved it. very quick response
Sep 7, 2014
I purchased a car from Wayzata
Nissan and it was a great
experience.
Aug 20, 2014
Responded to my email almost instantly. However I never found a
chance to drive up and look at the car.
Jul 8, 2014
No oil on dipstick, vehicle smelled
slightly of dog (hyuck!)
Jun 10, 2014
Although I did not purchase from this dealer. They were very helpful and answered all of my questions.
Jun 2, 2014
Wayzata's staff, particularly Boris and
Hassan, made it easy to buy a new
vehicle.
May 30, 2014
Very friendly car salesman. No pressure.
Feb 9, 2014
good follow up
Nov 27, 2013
They got back to me right away and answered my questions.
Nov 5, 2013
Awesome doing business with them

Oct 10, 2013
Good Customer Support and wide range of Nissan
Sep 10, 2013
They called but had already sold the vehicle I was interested in!
But they thought they could help.........No Thanks!
Aug 21, 2013
Response was very fast. Our salesman very nice and always kept
me updated. Was amazingly hard to buy a car with cash. Who
would have thought that cash was such an inconvenience to
dealerships!
Jul 1, 2013
It took a few e-mails going back and forth to determine if the car listed on cargurus was available. Salesperson was friendly.
Jun 24, 2013
I ultimately purchased a car here, but had to wait 3 1/2 hours to see the financing guy. Unacceptable.
Jun 12, 2013
The cars we test drove were dirty. I mean dirty on the inside. They had not been detailed.
Jun 12, 2013
Ad was OLD, OLD, OLD!
Jun 5, 2013
good
May 26, 2013
Responded right away
May 24, 2013
Dealer responded and was easy to work with
Apr 16, 2013
Dealer got back to me right away. Very friendly and not pushy at all. Drove home in my new car within a couple hours.
Mar 6, 2013
Dealer responded and was very cordial . Unfortunately the car didnt work for us right now but we had a pleasent initial experience .
Oct 15, 2012
They did a nice job , the price is high for what the car is.. They said the price is as low it will go. Plus it is 6.5 hours away.
Sep 4, 2012
very helpful ` learned to drive 6 speed
Aug 2, 2012
4 stars..i received a call back from a salesperson.
Jul 10, 2012
I will never purchase from this place again. It seemed liked a good deal. Would not recommend!!!! They sold me a damaged vehicle. Car had engine and transmission issues afer TWO DAYS!!
