Towing packages, and Accessories in general purchased at the time of sale from the manufacturer is covered under the 3yr./36, 000 bumper to bumper warranty, and that's important to know . Most standard warranty of after market stuff is one year at best. Although the price may seem high $690, it was specially designed to fit perfectly and unobtrusively.

The Internet Sales Manager at Mike Barney Nissan in Buffalo has been helping Canadian buyers, check them out. They can also get any color, any options. Once across the border, canadians have to pay 6.1% duty (because the Murano is built entirely in Japan), 5% GST, 206.70 RIV fee, and 100.00 Excise tax. Canadian Tire can do the Daytime Running Lamps and after that - you own a significant vehicle that will last a long time.

Just wanted to clarify:
The factory tow package for the 09 is Class II. That is, the hitch is rated for 3,500 lbs GTW. However, the receiver (the actual receptacle) itself is 2" square - like the ones you'd typically find on Class III tow hitches. So if your only purpose is to have a 2" square receptacle, you'll still be OK with the factory one. Although, you can always get an aftermarket hitch for a lot less.

Well after driving our 04 Murano around for the past 4 years - we decided to upgrade. Worked out perfect as our lease was up this past Feb. We wound up leasing a LOADED 2009 Murano LE AWD with EVERY option - moonroof, navigation, mats, cross rails, cargo protector, tire flaps, etc. We were really upset that you could not get a DVD player and the navigation system or moonroof. Tried to config online - but selecting overhead DVD greys out BOTH moon (makes sense) and navigation (does not make sense!). The dealer said it had something to do with the wiring. So we added the OEM DVD Players (INVISION) to the back of each headrest. Looks even BETTER to be honest than the factory option. So we literally have EVERYTHING in this car. (DVD NOTE: The DVD players were installed by the dealer and look amazing. Nissan considers INVISION DVD to be a NISSAN "dealer port" option. Only the dealer offers this option and they match the factory specs. INVISION items can ONLY be ordered and installed through the dealership. 3rd party companies and consumers CANNOT buy them and do it yourself. For this reason they are not considered aftermarket and convered under the NISSAN manufacturer warranty as well.)
 
We got the LE with the Super Black Exterior with Beige Leather Interior. Looks great in this combination. Dark interior looked good in old model - but we thought beige interior looks better in 09s.
 
Original Sticker was $40,511.00 and DVD Player was $1500.00. Cap Cost Came to $38,200.00. All this in a 42 Month Lease with 12K miles annually - $5,529 down - out of pocket (first payment - the 529-, taxes, titles, tags, etc.) and a Monthly payment of $529.00 I believe the buyout at the end of the lease is $19K and change. For a car with this many options - I believe we got a great deal. I know the DVD Players in the Headrest option was like $1500. I live in Virginia and shopped around at 6 dealers - the best we were offered in VA was $6200 down and $570 a month for the same lease - I took this deal back to the dealer where we originally leased our 04 Murano - Herb Gordon Nissan in MD and they beat it - no games and no hassle - did everything over the phone. I just showed up to pick up my car!! They gave me the model customer experience - twice! They have amazing customer service. I would obivously deal with them again in a hearbeat.
 
By the way - I have also test driven the Acura, Lexus and Infiniti this year. Thought maybe it was time to leave Nissan. My parents have the lexus and i drove it in Florida for two solid weeks prior to test driving the 09 Murano. I can honestly say - money aside - I felt the 09 Murano drove and felt better than ALL OF THEM. Maybe a personal preference. But even if cost was not a factor - I felt the 09 Murano was the best one. It is a truly amazing car. Just did a road trip up to NYC last weekend and this car was perfect. The bluetooth was awesome for answering calls with no effort, ipod connecter was very cool for listening to our library of tunes and controlling it through the vehicle, the traffic navigation helped us avoid some major tie ups on the beltway, the dvd players were great for keeping the little happy with dora the explorer, the duel moonroofs were great for taking in the views in NYC and overall the roomy seats and great handling made for a wonderful trip!!
 
I HIGHLY recommend this car.

i leased the 40k murano because i wanted all the toys especially the nav ,power tailgate,bluetooth and keyless start. big features when holding little arms and bags in parking lots. the quality and handling was better than the highlander but smaller. i leased for two years. there no homeruns out there . maybe the new pilot-.old one didn't have alot of the features. it will also be 40k loaded.

What was the best lease deal you were able to negotiate? Was it a 2009 LE? How many months lease + miles/yr?

Hello,
 
I have been told by Nissan Canada, that the 2009 Nissan Murano has to be registered and plated in the U.S for a period of 6 months. Before you can transfer the warranty to Canada. I guess they are doing this as a deterrent to stop Canadians from buying the car across the border. Does anyone provide me with more information on this subject. Is there a way around this issue ?

Black leather... if you please by needsomezoom

Someone want to talk me into or out of black leather on the Tinted Bronze LE? I thought beige would be the norm but most of the vehicles (black, bronze, platinum) on the lots here are the black leather. Maybe it's a Northeast thing with our seven-month winters? Maybe black is easier to maintain? I think they both look pretty sharp and the interior accents seem to lend themselves to either color.

I just ordered my LE in Tinted Bronze with the Beige interior - is it much more difficult to find in this combination. I like both interiors but I think the black is just a little too dark since there is no accent color. With the beige you have the darker (brown?) accent color which I think will look really sharp with the Tinted Bronze.
