If color choice is important then wait. Whatever the cost increase, you won't be happy saving a few hundred dollars on a car you dislike. There a several other choices of cars every bit as nice as the murano.Some are thousands less. You could check out 09's and see if any meet your needs. My 09 sl is nice but I could be happy in a number of other vehicles.

The best so far by ukko

We have owned several vehicles over the years. MDX, Pilots, and American cars. The best so far has been the Murano SL. Wow! what a vehicle. What a pleasure it is to daily start the vehicle up and drive it down the road. We have had the 09 for about 4 months now. Life is so nice with good design. Thank you Japanese!!!

2009 Murano Manual Gear Change (Anyone use it??) by lovepub
Sep 16, 2009 (5:28 am)
Reply
I haven't got the car yet...it's coming in 1 week time.
 
I test drove it in "D" mode only....but saw the gear can be shifted/changed manually. Has anyone tried it? Does anyone use it under normal driving? Or is it just a gimmick that people dont really use and dont really need?
 
Was wondering if using it would be more fuel efficient and more fun!?
Any one who had good experience with using it, please give me some insight on how to do it smoothly and how NOT to fuck up the gear....would much appreciate.
 
This question came into mind today....I believe 99% of murano owners dont use that function......but worth a ask.
 
Probably only used during offroad/sand driving?! am i rite?
 
THanks for all inputs!

CVT transmission --- don't know what manual shift capability your murano has but mine has a standard shift box. Move the selector up and down. Just keep it in drive and use the accelerator pedal. Read the owners guide for questions re the trans use.

yeah....usually we put it in "D"...but if u push the gear knob to right...
then u can push it up and down to gear up and down...
That's my question....what does it do?...when should it come in handy?

Now, you all have me scratching my head on this as well. I have an 09 LE and I don't even know if it has this capability. The LE has pretty much everything available, but I never looked for this or noticed this. I'll have to take a look at it on my lunch break. I'll be back later with my findings!

Beside the "D", if push to the right, there would be a "+" and "-"
 
I am in Australia.....we only have two model "ST" and "TI" which both have this.
I dont think US should be any different on this part.
 
Just very curious.... the sales told me I can put it in that mode and shift the gears myself UP and DOWN....like driving a Daytona.
 
No one experienced that?

Automatic Headlights by dallasmurano

I had been driving my new 09 Murano SL (Premium, Leather, 360 value package) for two weeks now.. I like almost everything about the new murano and love driving it except for one thing. It DOESN'T have an automatic on/off headlights. My old car was a Corolla VE(1999) with everything manual (manual transmission, manual windows) and the only thing automatic on that base model corolla was the automatic headlights ">. I am so used to the automatic headlights and i drove my new Murano with out headlights on and worse i realized it only after driving 5-6 miles.. Wondering why they couldnt make it a standard on atleast from SL and above..

If you opt for the tech package then you get the auto headlights. You didn't--I didn't and now we are stuck with one more thing in our lives that we have to remember to do. What a BUMMER !!!!!

I can confirm my 2009 LE does NOT have a manual shifting option
