New Nissan Dealership Acquired By Del Grande Dealer Group

We are tremendously excited about this fantastic opportunity with Nissan

. The brand has incredible momentum and is poised for big time growth in Northern California said Shaun Del Grande, the President of the Del Grande Dealer Group.

As Nissan continues to increase market share, up year over year 21.2% as of May 2010, Shaun Del Grandes timing seems to be perfect. Our teams are in place, the market is beginning to recover and the pent up demand is showing up in our showrooms. With that kind of combination, we are going to sell a lot of new vehicles!

Nissan Division May Highlights:

Retail sales (68,135) were up 21.2% versus prior year and May share record of 6.9%

Versa (9,842) #1 in the segment, was up 95.6% vs. last year and set a new May share record

Armada (1,485) was up 89.4% versus last year

Rogue (8,789) was up 6.1% versus last year and set a new volume record for May

Nissan won the market share race based on May calendar year to date performance:

#1 Import Manufacturer in Total Market Share gain: +0.8 of Total Industry

#1 Import Manufacturer in Total Units Sales gain: +79,464 Total Units

#1 Import Manufacturer in Car Market Share gain: +1.1 of Total Car Industry

The transition period has been very smooth with Nissan North America. Its really going to be an easy transition for our customers and our employees. Del Grande continues, Our Dealer Group has had a solid start to 2010 with every month having significant improvements over 2009. We are cautiously optimistic about 2010 and feeling really positive about 2011.
