  Nissan hits the nail on the head - 2003 Nissan Murano
  By dennis - July 4 - 12:00 am

  My Murano rides like a sports car and gets 19-20 mpg. Besides gawking drivers when I first bought it, now fellow Murano drivers give a heads up signal. Former Infinity and future Infinity owner-but love this car!

  Murano in snow - 2003 Nissan Murano
  By terry m - June 12 - 2:00 am

  Great in all weather. I had some concerns about the new CVT trans but it was great in northern MI last week. snow up to the bumper and hills and it went well ( I put it in low and locked the wheels on some steep hills). Smoothest I have had on the highway and my wife has an MDX.

  CVT Issues - 2003 Nissan Murano
  By lemonornot? - May 30 - 3:50 pm

  We bought our Murano less than a year ago at 58k miles. Was looking forward to owning a Murano since they came out in 2003 and prices finally came down to where we could afford one. Well much to our surprise at 65k miles the engine starts to run at 4000 rpm going down the highway one long trip and we literally feel the vehicle losing power and jumping forward. We end up turning around on the highway in the median then cant move at all. COMPLETELY LOST POWER WITH THE GAS PEDAL TO THE FLOOR!!! Thought we were going to be stranded on the highway! Turn engine off/on and it goes by golly. Took it back to dealer and found the transmission had to be replaced, metal in pan. CVT has issues.

  Nice Sporty Ride - 2003 Nissan Murano
  By Worm - May 30 - 2:00 am

  Test drove this SUV twice to make sure it handled and performed as well as I thought the first time. Handling is great and stable. The engine has excellent performance and runs very smooth. I just think it might be priced a little high considering nissan does not have high residual values like Acura or Lexus but it is priced around 38,000 for a loaded SE.

  Near Perfect - 2003 Nissan Murano
  By linzybel - May 25 - 2:00 am

  The Murano is a near perfect car for us. With a wife and two children, we want great performance and handling, interior space and comfort, and looks that will last. The seats and the ride make us feel rich, and the engine rocks. When you need to pass, you just PASS. As for amenities, the reclining rear seats are slick and the stereo system is better than anything well ever have in our living room. Finally,the looks. The line and the proportions wont be improved upon in any crossover SUV for a long time to come. In short, the Murano makes perfect sense for parents who want to feel like theyre not just hauling kids but DRIVING.

  Best Pick! - 2003 Nissan Murano
  By Jeremie - May 25 - 2:00 am

  I was hooked at first sight, and fell in love at first drive. Extremely comfortable, roomy for 5, and can even lug along 6 if your rear seat passengers dont mind being a little squeezed. Lots of great ways of maximizing storage space, with the expanding side storage compartments on the front doors, the ample trunk with space underneath as well. Beautiful design, and a great ride!
