Meet the whiter side of the Nissan Murano Z51. Created by Autech Japan, the special edition "Mode-Bianco" puts the color "Bianco" on the Nissan Murano Z51. What's that you ask? White lights, white interior, Bose Sound System, and a choice of 20-inch or 18-inch rims all colored white. This special model is available only in Japan this February 9.

Nissan Murano Z51 Facelift

What an unbelievable stroke of unluckiness among Filipino owners of the Nissan Murano Z51, launched in the Philippine market last year, because this Kanagawa-based car maker has pulled the wraps of the Nissan Murano Z51's minor change, and we are disappointed that Japan now has the latest revision of the Nissan Murano Z51 just like from Europe and in the North America.

The Nissan Murano Z51 was launched in Japan since September 2008 and it was the crossover that gave birth to the Nissan Premium Factory range, a range consisting the finest luxury Nissan models such as the Fairlady Z Z34, Fuga Y51, Skyline V36, and the Elgrand E52. The Murano Z51 is now mildly redesigned to appeal the wealthy buyers who are experiencing more than just LA-Z-BOY recliners and bottomless iced teas. This crossover is at the center of its business-class stage because of its sports car-like performance and luxury car-like conveniences.

The Nissan Murano Z51's face-lift features a redesigned grille, aggressive headlamps, new aggressive front bumper, and sporty rear lamps that provides exceptional elegance for the Z51's minor facelift.

Nothing's different about the interior because the Nissan Murano Z51 face-lift remains the interior but there is a slight change on the fine vision meters. The Nissan Murano Z51 offers BOSE Sound System for top-class sound quality executives love to listen to. It offers a dual sunroof for a breezing atmosphere while an executive tries to read a book in a middle of a heavy traffic. A Mild Flow System is equipped for enhanced air-conditioning inside the Murano Z51. This is somewhat good to cool down while taking a trip through EDSA.

The Nissan Murano Z51 offers two distinctive engine types to choose from; a flagship VQ35DE (3.5L V6) engine, which produces a power output of 260PS/6000rpm and the fuel economy of 9.3km/L (4WD), and the entry level QR25DE (2.5L) engine, which produces 170PS of power output and the fuel economy of 11.6km/L (2WD). This crossover is equipped with Nissan's innovative XTRONIC CVT for maximized fuel economy when you need it. An available XTRONIC CVT-M6 is added on the Murano Z51 for sporty performance. The Nissan Murano Z51 comes with the ALL-MODE 4x4-i (Yaw Moment Control) for all-round cruising on any road conditions.

My thoughts about the Murano:
Ms. Elizabeth Lee, senior vice president of Universal Motors Corporation, you made a wrong move about the Murano Z51. What you bring last year is the old, pre-face-lift model, now in Japan, since January 20, 2011, what they did is the facelifted Murano Z51 is out and scheduled for Japanese sale this early February. Please do something about that Murano Z51! This Murano Z51 we had in the Philippines is old now and we need the face-lifted version, just like the Japanese have, now!

I hope Elizabeth Lee, the senior vice president of UMC, will take my memo and realizing it was a bad move and bad timing that we were far from the schedule about the Murano Z51's launch and I just hope that the latest face-lift of the Murano Z51 will appeal more buyers than the Lexus RX 350.
