Hello all. Been reading the forums the last couple of days and have learned alot. Alot of good info here.
I have decided for the most part to get a New Murano at the end of June (figure it will be the best time, end of month and quarter, and will have time to save up to put a little cash down).
My question is should I wait for the 2006's(when are they expected to hit by the way?) or go ahead and grab a 2005. I read that the interior will be updated a little on the 2006's, although I cannot find any specifics on what that update will be. Anyone here know?
I am looking to get a SL with the touring package. Color preference is Platinum, Black, Merlot... in that order. All with black interior... maybe latte for the Merlot. I have already test driven an AWD and I loved it. Is there a noticable difference between the FWD and AWD? I will test drive a FWD before I buy it, just to be sure.
I have become concerned about the CVT and alternator (from posts on this site) on the Murano, not to mention the rattles and noises that seem to be present on the vehicle. Although I must say when driving, I usually have NIN blasting... so I can deal with the noises.
Correct me if I'm wrong but you can purchase a factory extended warranty at a later date and not the day of purchase. Correct? I will put approximately 27,000 miles/year on the car. I'll probably get the lonest warranty available.
Thanks for any input/insight you guys can give.
