To show you how pricing has changed on the murano sl awd -- mine had an msrp of just over 34k with premium,moonroof,leather, mudflaps and sold for 29200 in october 09. This was the real price. There was no rebate or public incentive. Nobody was buying back then and since all you folks have come out to buy -- nissan has jacked prices. Can't blame them -- not many at local dealerships -- the car is relatively hot in this economy. You can deal better on altimas -- seem to be loads -- everyone wants a murano and nissan is playing the game to maximize profits. That's taking care of business. If I were looking now, I'd go straight to the acura dealer and test drive a base 09 rdx. Nicely equipped msrp 34k -- quote 29500. A bit smaller but very upscale.

You need to keep in mind that prices change dramatically depending on where and when you buy. I find it that if you live near large cities where business is brisk, you are not going to get as much off as if you live in a rural area. Also, if dealers have a lot of Murano's on the lot, it will be easier to negotiate. Here in Midwest around Chicago area, it was very difficult to find exactly what I was looking for (2-3 weeks ago) but it seems like now there are more deals available (getting some e-mails about deep discounts and end of months deals, of course I would never know how real they are until I go in). I got my SL/AWD/360 for $30900 with 2.9% and I am sure I could've squeezed out a bit more if I was more aggressive but it was late and I was tired
 
Also, keep in mind that A LOT of quotes on the forums are probably straight from e-mails sent by dealers who 99% of time add in ALL available rebates (whether you qualify or not) so most likely, the $29,920 will end up $30,920 if the dealer adds back $500 rebate for June (if you want 2.9% financing instead) and $500 graduate rebate.

Thanks for the insight...I'm being told that the Murano's are scarce around here, but a couple of emails quoting some of the prices I've found on here brought in an offer of $31,400, and I'm waiting to hear back about which incentives they squeezed into that price.
 
For your SL/AWD/360, that's already a good chunk below invoice...do you know if there were other incentives hidden in there to get it down so low? I'd be happy to get them down that last $500 to match your price.

My price includes no rebates as I opted for 2.9% financing instead of $500 (both will end in 2 days) and obviously it's been more than 2 years since I graduated so no $500 graduate rebate, either.
 
From all my experience, 99% of quotes from dealers include all possible rebates (even if you don't qualify) to get you in through the door. To be fair, they do include a disclaimer like "all factory rebates included or applied" in e-mail quotes.

No offense, but you mistake things severely.
 
I've been through an education on the Murano the last couple of days as my wife wants one.
 
It's the worst time to buy one because prices are high and dealers aren't budging that much because Nissan literally shut down production since last year (not totally, but more than 60% offline). The even bought out employees at their plant in Georgia that worked on the truck & suv lines, as demand for larger vehicles had sunk dramatically, and they wanted to focus on smaller cars.
 
So, dealers wanted more Muranos not because demand was so strong, but because they shut production down so dramatically (there was still some Murano demand, obviously). I was specifically told some dealers had not received any Muranos in the last two months - not one.
 
They are now ramping production of the Murano way up again. I was also specifically told there will be a large allotment of Muranos shipped at the end of July. I can see paying way more now than in a few months, further exacerbating the depreciation. Ughhh.
 
My wife wants a Murano at the worst possible time. I'm trying to steer her to well-stocked competing vehicles.
 
Wish me luck.

I also heard Nissan has stopped the production of '09 Murano.
 
We went to test drive the Murano and really liked the ride. The sales guy told us there are less than 10 SL's in our region. I'm wondering how much bargain we have considering the limited supply. Also, are you guys aware of any coming promotions on the 09's?
 
cheers,
 
Lucy

There's nothing to be mistaken.
I bought one 3 weeks ago after researching for about a month and inquiring more than 10 dealers around Chicagoland. I've heard the bits you are talking about, no or limited production run, from the dealers I've been to. Some dealers tried to take advantage of this by not budging on the price, some dealers were more flexible, some promised really good prices except they couldn't deliver. One of the dealers obviously delivered for me.
 
And about this being the "worst time to buy," I got mine for $1200 below invoice ($5000 below MSRP) so if you can do better, more power to you. Sure, some have gotten $2000 below invoice but from what I read in this forum there's only so much you go down.
 
By the way, I bought my car based on how much I liked the car, not how well a car is stocked. I am sure you can get a pretty good deal on a car that there are plenty to have.

So far, I think I got the best deal on 09 Murano LE with 52 miles on it + (moon roof, roof cross bars, carpet floor and aero kit). MSRP was $41,405. The price I got from Arlington Nissan (Buffalo Grove) was $34,300. $7105 off MSRP.
 
I think, this is the best deal so far.
 
very happy with my murano.

Yeah, that's an excellent deal. I think it was the car that I was looking at a couple of days before you picked it up At the time I was asking about it, they weren't so willing.

As much as I like my murano it's not the be all and end all-- if I was in the market for an suv I'd look elswhere if the deals are bad. Acura rdx, subaru outback ltd [09 -10], subaru tribeca, honda crv honda pilot,hyundai santa fe, those are all nice rides and deals are available. Go for test drives.Expand your horizons -- or wait until the 2010's come out. But if momma's not happy -- nobody's happy.
