Derek really listened to my needs and desires and helped me find the perfect car to meet my family's needs. Derek was a great sales guy. Not pushy just really chill and I appreciate that in a sales person. This was by far my best experience buying a car. Please do yourself a favor and go straight to Leith Nissan and ask for Derek!

Definitely recommending Leith Nissan to my friends!

Leith's staff is courteous but personable, and they were happy to proverbially hold my hand every step of the way. They were more than willing to compromise in order to get my husband and I in the ballpark of a payment we felt comfortable with. Now, I won't go anywhere else. I love my brand new 2016 Rogue, can't wait to bring it back for my first oil change (and a vacuuming if y'all have time :) ...) More

New car! I bought my second Nissan Rogue, on 05/23/2016. I asked for Derek Parker, as he helped us 5 years ago, with the purchase of a Rogue. Derek really kn I bought my second Nissan Rogue, on 05/23/2016. I asked for Derek Parker, as he helped us 5 years ago, with the purchase of a Rogue. Derek really knows the cars, and fully answered all of our questions. A few more features with this car, and he easily taught us how they worked. Derek is the only car salesman that my husband and I have been comfortable with. He is not pushy at all, and really tries to help you get the car that is the right car for you. More

He was awesome in We traded our 2014 Rogue for a 2015 Murano and we LOVE IT! Derek Parker was our sales rep, handled us from arrival to departure. He was awesome in finding the car that we wanted which turned out to be our dream car! Derek took our lists of "must haves" and brought us all of that PLUS! The Murano Platinum is awesome! Never at any time did we feel pressured. This was not the closest dealership to us but we did not mind at all coming to Leith Nissan. Thank you Derek Parker and Leith Nissan! More

2016 Altima 2.5 SL Lease Kudos to the awesome staff at Leith Nissan lead by General Manager Bonnie Gramling. We have leased 4 Nissan's from Leith Nissan with help from Senior Kudos to the awesome staff at Leith Nissan lead by General Manager Bonnie Gramling. We have leased 4 Nissan's from Leith Nissan with help from Senior Sales Consultant Derek Parker. He once again helped with my wife's lease of a 2016 Altima. You will not find a more patient, knowledgeable and never pushy sales consultant anywhere. This time around my wife and I was trying to decide between a 2016 Rogue or 2016 Altima. After test driving the decision was made to go with the 2016 Altima 2.5 SL. Derek and the entire staff make the whole process as simple as possible. We certainly will be recommending Leith Nissan. Many thanks to General Manager Bonnie Gramling, Senior Sales Consultant Derek Parker and the rest of the staff - You are the best Randy More

Derek Parker helped me in the past with my 2012 and 2013 Nissan LEAF's and has helped me once again with the purchase of my Murano this past weekend. He was very patient with me as I tried to decide between the new 2016 Maxima or the Murano. We went on a few test drives and I finally decided on the Murano. The whole purchasing process was very simple and I walked out with what I wanted. You guys are great and I will certainly be recommending Leith Nissan! More

Derek Parker is a great salesman who made the entire process seem smooth and easy; no easy feat, since I stepped through the door with the firm intention of "just looking, not making any decisions today". Derek was very responsive to my needs, very patient in answering all my questions and made sure I understand all the car's features. My whole family was very impressed when I told them all about it! Thanks Derek Parker and Leith Nissan. More
