Used 2003 Nissan Murano Consumer Reviews
Best Crossover SUV in class
Drove Acura MDX, Honda Pilot, RX300 Lexus, Highlander, and Volvo. For the feature set and the price this vehicle cannot be beat. It sits at par with the Honda and the Acura, shames the Highlander, and comes mighty close to the Volvo. Now, compared to the Honda and MDX I chose the SL Murano AWD because of its newer styling, at par performance, and better interior (less conservative than the Hondas but not crazy-out-there). Compared to the Highlander and the RX300 Lexus, there is no comparing. The Volvo is nice but pricing starts at 40K unless you can live on the vanilla base model...
Very Impressive
I traded in my Pathfinder for a Murano. I have 400 miles and counting, great vehicle. In the Blizzard of 03, it handled very good, but, the pathfinder was better in that type of weather. gas mileage running about 19.5 so far on engine breakin.

A Great Drive
Unlike most SUV's I've driven, the Murano is fun to drive. It has much better acceleration than I anticipated and is very smooth. The exterior has turned quite a few heads in my small city and the interior, though not luxorious, more than meets my needs.
At a Glance
I was driving an ML320 and looking to trade in for better gas mileage. I looked at all the crossovers but nothing compared to my ML. Innitially didn't like the look but test drove Murano anyway. The car is fun to drive, a lot like my ML but smaller stearing wheel. Leather was ok.. but the cloth in the Murano was the best of any of the similar SUV's I'd seen. Even with no options the car had a lot in it. The CVT was a bit strange at first but the SUV moves nicely. I have had it just a week and I don't miss my ML.
THE COMPLETE URBAN SUV
THIS VEHICLE IS THE COMPLETE PACKAGE. THE RIDE AND COMFORD OF A LUXURY SEDAN. THE STYLING AND POWER OF A SPORTS SEDAN,YET THE STRENGTH OF A SUV. I CAN'T BELIEVE THE GREAT GAS MILAGE, 23-25 AVERAGE, AND IT'S ALMOST 4,000LBS. SIMPLY THE BEST VEHICLE I'VE EVER OWNED. THERE WERE TWO REVIEWS THAT COME TO MIND, ONE MENTIONED CARDBOARD THE OTHER CLUE ON PARTS. WHAT WERE THEY TALKING ABOUT? I'M CONFUSED, THEY MUST HAVE GOTTEN THERE REVIEWS MIXED UP.
