I may never love another vehicle again....
This vehicle has spoiled me beyond measure. I got the 2017.5 Platinum FWD Murano in Pearl White/ Cashmere a few days ago and I am just in shock at how advanced this car is in comparison to my INFINITI. The ride quality is outstanding (it feels like it just floats on the road), the tech package is nothing short of amazing, the heated and cooled seats (oh the seats!!!) are so good I hope Nissan comes out with a line of furniture. Nissan literally thought of everything in this vehicle, not to mention it catches your attention with its bold curves and hunkered down sporty stance! I consider myself a smart investor and hopefully this nissan will give me many wonderful (safe) years ahead. Go test drive this vehicle! You will NOT be disappointed!

Familiar but different
Bought 3 weeks ago and still breaking it in. Had a 2005 murano and the 2017 feels familiar but in an upgraded way. Have to get use to new features and technology. Loving it so far. Looking forward to the next 200k miles.

Ride, Styling, Options - Wow!
I bought this car in TX in Feb, drive it to upstate NY in July. I love the interior and exterior styling of my Platinum model red/cashmere interior vehicle! Having had a major back issue at 42 I became aware of the importance of comfort. I also love to drive. This car is so comfortable, especially the Driver’s seat. I too wish the passenger seat though it is very comfortable as well, you can’t tweak it for your body beyond the usual electric controls. Both seats heat or cool independently. I thought Phoo - who needs that! I do and all my passengers love it. It’s amazing when the temperature is in the 20’s in NY to have a heating pad on your back or bum. The reverse is true as well. Houston gets very hot so you turn your seat control into Cool and within 10 minutes you feel like you’re sitting on an ice bag. Heat and passenger has their own controls. Big display screen with 8 cameras. There is only a Ding if you’re about to back off of a cliff but I believe most of us are already in hyper-vigilant mode! Bluetooth works great. I don’t know how, but as long as my phone or my passenger’s phone has Bluetooth on it does the rest itself. Takes a while to learn to use cameras to cover blind spots. I’m having a slow time of it getting used to the added length of front end and bumper length as well. I’ve already got a scrape from a concrete protection post set about 4’ from a gas pump. Oops. The 18” wheels came filled with Nitrogen which helps prevent condensation and tire rot from it. I got up to Malone, NY, and they were like Nitrogen? In your tires? Nobody does that. The first time it got cold this rather large diagram of my car appeared on the dash display. All 4 tires had dropped from 35ppi to 17ppi and were bulging out. My salesman had said Never mix Nitrogen and air. I had to drive almost 2 hours to get to nearest Nitrogen set up, but I called my Houston dealership and the manager said “Who told you that? They can be used together.” Problem solved. By the way my long drive TX to NY was a smooth ride all the way. I need to wrap this baby up! Gas mileage is not wonderful but isn’t the worst either. The next car I get I will be watching that closely! I could have bought a lower end new Mercedes for what I paid. I looked at that, but it was like comparing sleeping on a great mattress vs a woven mat made from palm fronds. Night and day. I’m sure more expensive Benz’s would have favorably compared but they were out of my range. I love this car!
Love this car BUT...
So I have had a 2017 Murano Platinum for about a month and a half. Love everything about this car, but Nissan used cheap paint on this car. You won’t notice on the plastic pieces such as the bumper but the hood, and front fenders have a paint chipping problem. I use the adaptive cruise and always stay as far away from the car in front of me as possible but this is a terrible paint job. For instance, after putting less than 5,000 miles on this car, the hood looks worse than my old Chrysler 200 with 140,000 Miles. I absolutely love everything else about this vehicle besides that. I can’t stress enough how much of a problem the paint job is though. I have no other option but to have the dealer install a clear bra, and my only advice to anyone looking to purchase a Murano is to do the Same. You will want to cover at minimum the first 12-15 inches of the hood, or you will regret it. Wish Nissan would have used some better paint as this has never been an issue on any other car I have owned. Not like it is on this thing.

Tight in All Areas - Premium Feel & Handling
Previous owner experience – Chev, Buick, VW, Infiniti, Mercedes. Chose Platinum AWD due to premium features, comfort, and handling. Murano offers more flexibility and robustness compared to many other vehicles, including premium/luxury. (See Everyman Driver off-road test, https://youtu.be/jxQtsPrlVxA .) First, I like the smooth, quick engagement of the CVT transmission, which makes the 260 HP/240 Torque engine seem more powerful. Likewise, the intuitive AWD system handles very well and with power. It is also very balanced and smooth on freeway. Next, the Zero Gravity Seats are legitimately, exceptionally comfortable and supportive. In addition, interior controls/functions/devices are very logical in placement. Only weakness is lack of lane departure warning system, but it has host of other safety features including driver alertness monitoring. Overall, very well designed SUV.
