    FX 35 with touring and technology package.

    Appearance : This thing looks huge from behind the driver's seat, kinda intimidating at first, pero once na mapatakbo mo na, ok na. Flashy appearance and really nice.

    Engine: Sweet mother of God, this is ONE AWESOME powerplant, I reached 70MPH in just an instant, plus the exhaust note, MUSIC to your ears. wasn't able to push it because of the damn build up of vehicles sa interstate.

    Transmission : tested the automatic, then the shiftable auto, SMOOTH & SLICK.

    Amenities : ALL POWER (tilt telescoping steering, seats up down forward back), ALL LEATHER, was so preoccupied with the engine hindi ko nakalikot masyado.

    Techie stuff : Rear Back up camera = cool, KEYLESS (as in no keys), Bose sound system = ROCKS (but preferred to turn it off and lowered down the windows, reason EXHAUST NOTE), DVD NAV = thumbs up

    Bottom line = I WANT ONE. I'll test drive the Murano in a few days.

    yes...it's pretty cool. i always thought it looked like it was designed by nike.

    i believe the transmission is a CVT but could be wrong - that would explain why it's so smooth, it doesn't shift so to speak ;)

    also, the technology package is nice indeed, but infiniti wants too much for it. what else is new, i guess...

    I thought it was only the Quest that was CVT?

    God, I want one, too...

    Ang pagbalik ng comeback...

    I don't think na CVT siya, yung Murano yata ang CVT and FWD/AWD.

    5 speed shiftable Auto ang Infiniti RWD/AWD.

    it looks like the one on my sig

    murano lang nga ata ang may cvt option. fx is 5 speed auto.

    red, im always curious how the murano drives since i didnt get a chance (though i tried quest, sequioa, endeavor, forester, ...). ill wait for your feedback.

    its been over 2 years and i still roll my window down to hear my exhaust. wife gave up thinking im crazy

    was thinking on trading in my ride pero salesman was kind enough to tell me 2007 there might be a model change (altho cosmetics lang).

    sa totoo lang makakalimutan mo car payments once na mapatakbo mo sa freeway

    So yan pala yung name nyan!

    Just saw one yesterday, nakapark sa may Uniwide Coastal Mall area, color nya is parang "mica gray" yung pang Fortuner na color. Putcha, intimidating talaga yung looks. Di ko lang maguess yung badge nya eh! But DAMN.....that's one sweet MACHINE!
