whoop dee doo...

it happened a couple weeks ago comin home from the club, had a long stretch of two carpool lanes next to eachother,

the murano paced me as i was cruising @ 80 .. i heard him gun it and dropped it into 3rd of course i pulled hard on him.

then we slow down to 50 i drop it in 2nd and once again i pull even harder.....

thumbs up and i was outtie

 

They sure do sound good once they get on it.

 

waste of gas

 

I can blow into a tin can and make the same noise j32 >*

 

You're asking for trouble.

As far as engine noise i'll agree our cars just sound flat out meaner then the the 3.5.

But the exhaust note on the FX, Murano, G etc. is just great.

 

Being a former CL-S owner and now a Murano SE owner....and considering the mods you note in your signature...the outcome of your race doesnt surprise me.

I had a discussion a couple of months ago on this board about Muranos racing cl's and i can say with a lot of confidence...that a Murano SE with 6-speed sportshift would be capable of hanging around the 01 & 02 CL-S on the highway...but only on the highway. no contest from a standing start..the CL-S is just faster.

the beauty of the CVT 3.5 in the murano, ESPECIALLY with the sport shift cant be fully appreciated until you get rolling...and the higher the speeds..in my experiences..the more the Murano pulls,the faster it gets... that was something that i never felt with my CL-S. The Murano is really a fun highway car..sokmething much to my surprise when i decided to buy one.


Just my 2cents.... sure do miss the acceleration from the CL-S sometimes!

 

 

btw: i had three other people in my car besides myself two of them slept through the race.... the other one got really pissed because i was racing :boohoo:

 

my Maxima barely make ANY sound.


Definitely It makes me want to change my Maxima's exhaust.
