I think I'll email some dealerships further out and see what hapens. Thanks again.
Paid $28740 +++; OTD: $31297 in CA.
0 down with 0% finance. The dealer is very professional and great!
I saw the ad in their web page last night; then search their inventory to find car and color I wanted. Email them to confirm the price and applied finance this morning.
I spent about 1.5 hours there to complete paper work and to learn the car functions.
The time could be reduce to less than 1 hour! if I did not temporally change car color. I love the car and am very satisfied with their service!!
Get your deal and Happy thanksgiving!!
Good luck to all of the car shoppers. Would love to hear who else bought their Murano this weekend!
2009 Murano SL AWD Glacier Pearl / Beige Leather
Splash Guards
Premium Package
Technology Package
Leather Package
Floor mats
4 oil changes
It also has wheel locks and airbag lock installed
for $30,497 + TTL
Which is $2034 below invoice + extras. Got it for 36 month under 0% financing.
Pretty happy with the deal, now I just have to tint front windows and I'll be all set!
It was by far, the best car buying experience I have ever had!!! Good luck on your shopping and you'll love the Murano :-)
My first vehicle was the one just like you mentioned SL AWD + Premium + Splash + Floormats and back in March I got it for $28500 + TTL (a little under invoice). But since then Murano prices increased a bit so try your best deal!
Thanks.
Since most of the people are doing negotiations online, can anyone post a good draft of an email which got them the best bargain.
thank u
I was planning on doing the email bid requests, but decided to go see if I could get the incredibly deep below invoice prices that other here have reported on the last day of November, as I did not have enough time for the whole email process unless I waited to year end (which I was ready to do).
So I went to the closest dealer that had the car with the color and options we wanted, told them what I was willing to pay today if they could give me that price and if not, I'd be happy to include them in my email bid process at the end of the year. There was a few minutes of negotiations where they offered some very good reasons why my price was not reasonable, but finally took it to the owner or sales manager or someone who countered only $200 higher, but also gave a 3 month delay in starting payments (the 0% "financing" deal) That was good enough for me.
All that said, I think the email bid process is really best, especially if you are not experienced at negotiations of this kind. I've spent a career in sales and still do not like buying a car this way, but just wanted to make sure we got the car and options we wanted. Heck, I probably could have gotten an even better deal with email bid requests. I think I got taken! :-)
That email process really is the smart move.

I'm in the market for an 07 SL and have been seeing some prices that just don't look right. I'm dealing via email with one dealership and he's trying to sell me an 07 SE w/19k miles for $26,000. I'm thinking I could almost get an 09 SL for that kind of money? I'm looking to spend around 20k for an 07 SL with about 25k miles on it. Am I off base?
I would definitely go for the 09 over the 07 -- lots of improvements and with the economy continuing to tank, 20k will buy one for sure.
What part of the country are you in where the dealer is offering that vehicle for $32,734? I'm emailing with some Nissan dealerships in the DC area for an 09 Murano LE with sunroof, and they seem almost annoyed that I am bothering them with my inquiry. Any advice on how to engage them over email to get the best price sooner rather than later? Thanks in advance for your thoughts.

Our price was 5400 below MSRP. (included the 1 K rebate
offered the last week of Oct.) It was well worth the
2 1/2 hour drive since no one else could/would come close
to their price. Did all our dealing on the phone. The price
quoted was the price we got.
I have been checking (online) the prices with our dealer for a
friend of mine.
In addition to what Jayrider said, on our dealership's website,
they have listed under INVENTORY, Specials:
SL-AWD for 26,071 (MSRP 30,455)
and
LE-AWD for 33,484 (MSRP 38,835)
(and a couple of S-FWD's)
Also, they advertise a special offer of 4.837 Price Reduction
on EVERY Murano they have in stock.
(on one of the car market place sites...don't know if I can name
it here or not)
I have told my friend it is worth a one way airline ticket to deal
with these guys. ( I recently flew all the way from StLouis to
Cali for 120)
I am looking at the 09 LE-AWD .I am still getting dealer quotes.
Is the one mentioned above for 38,835 is that with navi and leather?
Can you please post the dealer website?
I am in buffalo NY and dont mind taking the trip down there
Thanks in advance

leather...
The name of the dealership is AutoCenters Nissan, Wood River, IL.

Under Inventory, click on Specials. Scroll down. The LE is the
second from the bottom.
After getting the stock number, go back up to their new vehicle
inventory, and find the car. After clicking on it and copying
the VIN, you can then visit NissanUsa and find the car on the
dealership's listing of inventory, and get more information
about the vehicle.
At least I did all that before I called about the Murano we
purchased.
It was a fast, easy, stress free deal!!
And one of the best I've seen.
(BTW, I talked with the guy listed at the top of the page,
not the one listed by the car.)
$24,995.
Anyone getting deals like this.
Thanks
where are you based and can you throw any light on the market in VA and surrounding places?
I have been looking for a SL AWD 09 murano fully loaded. I did a lot of negotiating in may/june but finally gave up as i did not get a good deal.
I am hoping to get better incentives this time since this is the year end, and also since they might want to move stuff.
I wanted black on beige leather which proved to be very hard to find.
I sent some emails last time but a lot of people did not respond well and were even very rude in person.
I welcome any ideas you have and also anyone else on the forum has. Also, can you please tell me the best source to find current rebates, incentives etc. ?
I am thinking if i do not get anything now, i might just go in for an altima. I am so tired of this whole process.
thanks much everyone for your response in advance.
actually i see that even browns in virginia seems to have a lot of discounts..but i am thinking nissan will announce some big rebate or cash back for the last week, just not sure where to check that and how to find out.
I dont know why this black/beige combo is so rare. in general i observed that a beige interior makes it look more roomy and cheerful, but that may be just my personal preference.
thanks..

you were right, it included a $3500 down payment.
Which would still put the cost at $28,500 which is $5700 below MSRP.
However, if you factor in the time-value-of-money "discount" implied by the 0% / 36 month financing, that is the equivalent of another $3,000 or so. And they will finance everything, including sales taxes, extended warranty, etc.

I bought now because I was worried that future selection might be limited. Locally, SL's with few to zero options are showing up. Previously, most Muranos were loaded. Fewer options likely a strategy to keep the price down, rather than meet the market demand for no options.
