    Very enjoyable to drive.Plenty of room for driver and 3 passengers.Great pick up and handles very well above speed limit.

    I dont think the CVT is power sapping, just the opposite. Gets great MPG for a car of its size, speed and power.

  • The Murano is a JEWEL of an SUV! - 2004 Nissan Murano
    By -

    I drove about 8 mid-size SUVs before I settled on the Murano. Everything from the Kia Sorrento on the low end to the BMW X-5 and Lexus RX-330 on the high end. I decided that, for the money, the Murano was the best deal out there. The Murano has not disappointed. I love the way it looks, and so do others given the number of looks it gets on the road. I love the way it drives and rides. Very comfortable due to the many adjustments you can make to the driver and passenger seats. Gas mileage has been great so far -- 21/23, CVT transmission, which some reviewers dont like, has turned out to be a very pleasant surpise. No regrets at all. I love my Murano!

  • LOVE MY MURANO! - 2004 Nissan Murano
    By -

    What can I say? The Murano is an awesome looking vehicle. I traded my Dodge Durango and have been very pleased with the Murano. Its the most fun car Ive ever had. The ride is smooth and handles very much like a car but has the roominess of an SUV. The CVT transmission is nice. I personally dont think it detracts from the engines performance. It still has pep! Afterall, its not a race car. I love everything about the Murano.

  • Drivers door lock is a real problem - 2004 Nissan Murano
    By -

    I am very pleased with my 2004 Murano. The first week I had my new murano I thouhgt I would go out at night to see the appearance of the head lights. Well, I shut the door, with the car still running. When I tried to get back in, the door had locked me out. I had to call road service and the auto dealership. The dealership sent someone to open the door. I took it back to have this fixed. It was not repaired and I was told that maybe I was hitting the lock by accident(duh!) Well now I still have the problem, but I am not going to take my SUV all the way there to be told that this is a flaw with this model. I have to make sure I have my keys at all times. This is a poor feature.

    Outstanding performance. This vehicle spoils the driver. I received a number of compliments at the gas station and feel like a salesman showing it off. I have owned (6) Nissan Maximas since 1987 and 1 Nissan Murano. Nissan is a quality build vehicle and very reliable. The reliability and styles of Nissan keeps your attention.

  • Nissan Murano is a "9.9" - 2004 Nissan Murano

    In addition to being extremely functional, with the fold-down rear seats the Murano is an excellent cross between a much-fun-to-drive sedan and a handy cargo carrier. Very comfortable seating, which is important to me because my wife has severe scoliosis; when we look at a new car, the first thing shes interested in is the comfort level of the seats. If its not comfortable for her twisted back, forget it!!! We look elsewhere. BTW, she has a 92 Maxima which we got new from the same dealer and she loves it. Ive found no faults in either car and will not-doubt buy another when the time comes. And, oh yeah, the service from our dealership is AAA.

  • This car is a sleeper! - 2004 Nissan Murano
    By -

    I find this to be the very best car I ever purchased. A head turner. Exceleration is awesome. I went in to nissan to buy the new 2004 maxima, but after test driving the murano i was hooked. My wife and I are extreemly please with this vehicle. It has all the functions of a SUV but the ride of a smooth luxury car and then can fly like a high perfomace raodster.

  • Great alternative to the standard SUV - 2004 Nissan Murano
    By -

    Overall styling is refreshing when compared to other SUVs. Great fuel economy with good performance. The CVT drives well, but takes some getting use to as you dont "feel" the gears shifting. The interior and exterior has a wonderful fit and finish.
