Picked up a new car this weekend

[Angus]

This is to replace my wife's G6 that was totaled almost 2 weeks ago.

2011 Nissan Murano SV awd.

Oh and they gave us $5,500 for our neon.

Looks like an alien. Nice bug guard :mamaru:

Solid choice. Much better than any Chrysler product you were originally asking about.

It does look different, but I'm fine with it.

The bug shield will come off soon as I plan on getting a 3m clear bra put on. I'm more interested in the bug guard preventing rock chips on the hood for now.

Yeah, we looked at the durangos and grand Cherokees and weren't that impressed.

ooooh I like that. It's bubbly... I like bubbly cars If I were to get an suv type of vehicle it would definitely be similar to this but a different color. I feel like I would just dirty the crap out of white

I always have liked the Murano. They ride really well.

Baller choice, my rents got the one down from that, and it sux. I wish they got that one. It was SOOOO much nicer, and well worth the extra $.

 

[Euro]

Nice Angus I'm a big fan of those

 

[jason05gt]

Nice Car.

Make sure to stick to the factory maintenance intervals with the CVT. My boss had issues with her Murano's CVT transmission. Nissan bumped up the warranty to cover CVT failures.

 

[Bob Kazamakis]

Do the muranos still have that sexy vq grumble?

 

[Angus]

No, it doesn't! I was looking into what it would take to swap in the infinity mufflers to get that sound but I was told by my wife I'm not aloud to mod this car in any way and to keep my modding to my cars! I agreed.

Anyways, I think it would sound like poop with the CVT transmission.

 

[The Broken Regal]

Nice pick aaron, we got a black 10' at the dealer fully loaded, quite the nice ride for the money

yea, sucks about no vq sound though

 

[Angus]

I'm fine without the exhaust note.

But I dropped the car off last night to get some interior work done on the murano and the manager came over and threw me the keys to their 2011 370z roadster sitting on the lot and said "I've seen you eye balling that car, go take it for a drive."

I really enjoyed that stock exhaust note as well as how it drove. Never drove a car with that high of a red-line. Could be a good mustang replacement.... lol
I went by Greasy's neighborhood and almost stopped by his house to let him take it for a spin too!

 

[Bru]

I just gave our 370Z roadster tester back to the fleet after spending a day in it.

The old 350 has a better exhaust note, IMO. Don't know what they did, but the 370 doesn't have that same sound. It's a little deeper and meatier, and less high-pitched.

No, it doesn't! I was looking into what it would take to swap in the infinity mufflers to get that sound but I was told by my wife I'm not aloud to mod this car in any way and to keep my modding to my cars! I agreed.

Alcohol and the cover of darkness can take care of this agreement.

 

[Bob Kazamakis]

Just tell her it's broke and needs fixing.

 

[Angus]

Just tell her it's broke and needs fixing.

She knows that for the next 5 years or 60,000 miles, if anything breaks to take it to Nissan....

In all actuality, I don't want to mod this car either... With my luck, I'd put mufflers on and the engine would blow...

 

[Bru]

Then you can be cool like this guy
