After walking out the door with a price 800 bucks higher than I wanted to pay, I got a call a week later from the salesman, accepting my offer from the first visit, $33,200,
out the door plus sales tax. MSRP $36,380. Thought it was fair deal, not many 06's left on the lot and got the color I wanted. Just hate the cat and mouse games with the sales manager and salesman. So far happy with car, only problem
headlights are out of alignment, one higer than the other.
Been reading the Murano forum for the past year, thanks for all the information.
Do you mean you can't find a Murano with only that package, or there are none at the dealers you looked at :confuse:
You can go to the Nissan website, and inventory search for what you want from dealers within 100 miles of you. I agree, all should be equipped with it, but I also don't understand why someone would buy a Mo without the AWD. Many disagree with me.
I want VDC because it's a major safety factor when cornering. On the other hand, I don't want AWD because driving in So. California, the weather is usually great (other than some rain). So AWD will just cost me $1500 more to buy it and will result in less mileage and a higher insurance premium!
Anyway, check a wider area. I know the Nissan Dealer in Indio/La Quinta has some, and some other dealers in South County OC. I would also check the big Nissan shop in El Monte, but I can't remember their name.
Do you think it's really worth the $2,000 they are asking for it?

Thanks for all the persons who gave their valuable info as i have been going through this site for 3 to 4 months.
Is it a fair deal?
Where and how???
90-100 Route 1 North
Avenel, NJ 07001
based upon the forum info I started bargaining from $35000.
Just One month before they agreed for $35570 for 2007 SL AWD and $34300 for 2006 SL AWD without the extra options. but since the dealer had car with those extra options and also nissan slightly increased the rates for the regular options like Dynamic package etc . so i ended up at $36100. Also the Sales people i met was nice guys.
Furthermore, my local dealer doesn't have one with the VDC option and says if he has to trade with another Nissan dealer to get the options I want, the deal jumps to $400 OVER invoice!!!
Btw, did you buy (or are you considering) an extended warranty?
Drive to OC, dude. Half an hour, save $1000 or so.....
Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated. :
I am being offered $300 over invoice for '07 SL AWD with a sunroof package in San Francisco Bay Area area.
Are anyone getting a better deal?
Thanks
Strange that Pilot EX has VDC standard but with Murano you have to get the SL Touring package and even then they're next to impossible to find.
Btw, did you get an extended warranty?
Are TMV's so much delayed? Do I get so much lower price when I initiate a contact through email, while "walkin's" are paying close to MSRP?
And, yes, I did get the extended warranty, Gold preferred 7/70 with $50 deductible for $1211--supposedly at dealer cost. I'd be interested in what others here have to say about that price. Bought one at the same time for the 2004 Z we acquired used at a Ford dealer back in March--also supposedly at cost.
I think you paid a very fair price for the extended warranty as well, with $50 deductible.
Enjoy your Mo!
I don't know what dealer-cost is for your Extended Warranty, but I assume it extends the factory's 3-year 'bumper-bumper' warranty for an additional 4 years and if so, it's worth what you paid for it.
That's what it does. I asked why they would sell the warranty at cost (and they did the same for the Z) and was told it was because they didn't want Nissan customers unhappy as a result of large repair bills that had to be paid out of pocket. Seemed plausible but also too generous a practice for the typical car dealer.
I was suspicious at first because I paid $885 for a 7-year, 100,000 extended warranty on a Honda Odyssey in 2000, and $1200 seemed like a lot. [In typical Honda fashion, the only glitch in seven years was a failed oxygen sensor two months ago.]
We're just back from a 400-mile trip to Connecticut and the Mo was wonderful to drive. Ron Kiino of Car and Driver called it "the Z of sport-utes" and he's right. What a difference from the Odyssey, which is a pretty darn nice-driving minivan.
When you think about it, that's an implication of questionable build-quality... Very strange thing for a salesman to say! :surprise:
I live in So Cal - so it's not likely my SL will see any snow. While the climate here is typically stone-dry, we do get some heavy rain storms for a few months every year.
The way I see it, the AWD will rarely 'kick-in', costs more to buy and more to insure... Am I missing anything? :confuse:
I spend half my time in Palm Springs, so we get far less rain than you. You never drive to Big Bear in the Winter? Never plan on taking a road trip with it? Even on rain slick streets the AWD will keep you safer, and in better control. Even in cornering, it applies optimal traction when needed, so don't think of it only kicking in when it snows.
Not to mention the increased value when you go to sell it, or trade it in.
However, your safety issues are very convincing and for that reason alone AWD appeals to me!
Decent?
....how about the specifics?
Therefore, if the 2007 cost him an amount less than the first year's depreciation, it would be wiser to buy the 2007, no?
Actually, you could be right - I really don't know.
25,740 for a 2007 Murano S, Base Model.
What are your opinions on it?
Thank in advance.
Snap it up.
If you can afford it, and since they are obviously agressive in their pricing, check and see how much extra an SL would cost you. If it is $1500-$1800 more, buy it!
