Replying to: kkcatman (Jan 22, 2009 10:53 am) Be aware that Nissan raised prices on Muranos late in 2009, and the invoice price on cars manufactured before the increase will be somewhat lower than what Edmunds shows now. For example, my 09 SL AWD, purchased at the end of November had an invoice price (before any options/packages/destination charges, etc) of $27,656. For later Muranos, the invoice price (again, before any options/destination charges, etc) of an SL AWD, is $28,401. As far as I know, there was no change in invoice price of the options, packages, etc If you want an out the door price, you should calculate the TTL yourself based on your state's taxes and fees. Don't' let the dealer do that for you. Good luck. --jayhawk

Replying to: jkenley (Jan 23, 2009 12:51 pm) I used Nissan's website to check dealer inventories, and I knew all the dealers in the area that had a Murano with the color, trim level, and options I wanted. And I made sure the dealer knew I was ready to leave and go to those other dealers. I also told them that I would understand if they did not want to sell at that deep a discount, and I would be glad to include them in the email bid process I was planning to do in a couple of weeks. A key to thse kind of negotiations is that you really do have to be willing to say no and leave. Most of the time I've purchased a car from a dealer, I had to at least stand up and start leaving. One time a dealer actually called me the following day and agreed to my offer! (I would not expect that to happen very often....) I suspect that negotiating leverage is better in an urban area with a number of Nissan dealers, but you always have options, even if it means buying a car from a dealer a few hundred miles away. (Actually, I've purchased more cars in LA, 350 miles from here, than I have locally. Its a very competitive market, with lots of dealers to compete against each other.) I think I'm a good negotiator, but I've now come to believe that buying a car by requesting bids by email is a far better way to do this. If a dealer knows that they are in competition with other dealers based primarily on price, then you are going to get their best offer. Plus you don't get into back and forth discussions about why your offer is crazy. (and they usually have very good and believable reasons for that.) And that way you can get bids from dealers much farther away than is convenient for a personal visit. --jayhawk |

First off awesome thread! I am shopping for a Murano for my wife and this thread has been very helpfull. How does this deal sound to everyone? Super Black Murano SL FWD with the Leather package, Premium Package, Floor mats, and Splash Guards. Price - $29,438.50, Nissan Rebate - $500.00 BS Fee - 184.05 TTL - $1877.45 Total Drive out - $31,000 From what I can tell it is a fair deal. I don't feel I am getting an awesome deal but I don't feel like I am getting ripped off either. What do you think? Thanks, Person_TX |

My wife and I have about 10 months left on her lease of an 06 Murano SL. She loves the car, but the residual of 18k is laughable. She has a list of specific options that she wants, like blue exterior, tan interior which are not easy to find. Seems to be the best way to go is to order a Murano as my wife wants it. Are the deals not that great since we want to order? Also, Whats the difference between the loaded SL and base SE? |

Replying to: jayrider (Jan 25, 2009 11:31 am) Not to say an S isn't a great vehicle, it is, but "loaded" to me means features like the dual moonroof, power liftgate (one of my wife's favorite features!), leather, navigation, etc. You can get all those on the SL, but never on an S. A good way to compare the trim levels and the options you can add is on the specifications page for the Murano at http://www.nissanusa.com/murano/specifications.html --jayhawk

Hi-I'll try to be both brief and specific. I brought the car to Nissan for it's yearly inspection and it returned a code that the catalyst and evaporative systems were not in ready status. They had me drive the car around in some crazy specific pattern for over 100 miles and when I brough it back the systems were still not in ready status. The techs at Nissan then did "something" to the computer and the car passed the inspection. The very next day the car was idling rough and threatening to stall while idling. The tach was showing erratic jumps and falls while driving and there were some stumbles. It had never done this before. Too coincidental. I brought it back to them and they blamed me for not maintaining the car and preceeded to charge my $550 dollars to do some things to the spark plugs, throttle body, fuel injectors and air filter. The car now idles at 200 RPM which is ridiculously low but hasn't threatened to stall yet. It has been 3 days since the repairs. I've also noticed that the driver's side window now struggles to close like it is lacking power. In addition to all this there is a clicking noise coming from the back center of the engine right behind the windshield which increases at higher rpms and winds down to a clattering stop when the car is brought a stop. If anyone can make any sense of this I would greaty appreciate it as this looks like a massive headache in the making. It's a lease with 5 months left on it and I want to just get to the end. Thanks very much,
