Ahead of its planned LA Auto Show debut, Nissan's 2009 Murano is doing the sneak preview thing courtesy of the NICOclub forums where these pics originated.

They've since been posted on GM Inside News and FreshAlloy.com, as well. Clearly not wanting to mess with success, the CUV's general overall shape, as well as that of its side glass, is fundamentally the same. The '09 gets more muscular, Rogue-ish wheel flares, taillamps that extend into the rear hatch, and a new front end that makes silver Muranos look kinda like the updated Cylon centurions from Battlestar Galactica. We don't get a good view of the passenger cabin, other than to see a panoramic roof is obviously an option. Hopefully the current car's chintzy-looking gauge cluster got flushed in the revamp, too.

Oh, I think they lost something here. Changing the rear to have the angled window makes it look like a lot of the other SUVs out there. One of the things (like it or hate it) that made the Murano and FX distinctives was the curved rear.

This looks like they attempted to play it safe and blend in rather than stand out.

Lovin it. But then again (aside from the current sentra) I love anything with a Nissan/Infiniti/Datsun badge on it.

Looks like the Infiniti EX, & in turn looks like the Hyundai Veracruz.

looks alot like a rogue and that is the good part i guess, since the only part different (ie the front) I don't like. Look weird from the side too. But the inside looks nice.
