Find one with Spotter →Nissan Murano 2nd Gen sold for a median of $3,250 over the last 12 months, based on 5 auction sales; the middle 50% sold between $2,550 and $9,300. 72 currently for sale.
Nissan launched the second-generation Murano for the 2009 model year, refining the crossover's distinctively rounded styling. Built on the Nissan D platform, it shared its underpinnings with the Altima and Maxima. Every model came standard with the respected 3.5-liter VQ35DE V6 engine, producing 265 horsepower, and a continuously variable transmission (CVT).
While not a traditional collector car, the Murano's unique design and comfortable interior make it an interesting used vehicle. The standout model is the Murano CrossCabriolet, a two-door, all-wheel-drive convertible crossover produced from 2011 to 2014. Its unconventional nature and limited production have earned it a cult following and make it the most collectible variant.
The market for these vehicles is based on utility and condition rather than collectibility. With an average sale price under $9,000, they represent an affordable entry into a well-equipped crossover. Standard models are plentiful, but the rare CrossCabriolet often trades for a premium, especially with low mileage.
Buying Tips
- The Jatco CVT is the primary weak point. During a test drive, check for any hesitation, shuddering, or whining. Fluid changes are critical, so review service records carefully.
- Sunroof drains are prone to clogging, which can cause water to leak into the cabin and damage electronics. Check for damp carpets in the front footwells.
- On CrossCabriolet models, operate the convertible top several times to ensure it works smoothly. Inspect the soft top for wear and check seals for any signs of water leaks.
- If equipped with AWD, test the system for any unusual noises like clunking or grinding. The transfer case can be a point of failure if not maintained.
- Check all interior electronics, particularly the Bose audio system and navigation screen. These units can fail and are expensive to replace.
Prices for the second-generation Murano range from around $1,400 for high-mileage examples to $21,500 for low-mileage or CrossCabriolet variants.
