It's not so much that the Nissan Murano returned to the market in 2009 completely redesigned, it's that it's so much improved, it's bound to rise in class in style and consumer preference rankings.

The redesign retained its attractive qualities while making some key improvements to keep this sporty crossover more than competitive with the top-selling crossovers like the Honda CRV, Toyota RAV4, Ford Escape and Toyota Highlander. The Murano is sporty in its handling, but with its highly responsive powertrain, it's a smooth ride.

While the cargo space behind the second row is smaller that some rivals and some rear visibility is compromised, the improvements more than make up for its drawbacks. An upgraded, luxury-feel cabin and key mechanical refinements further its appeal.

You can take a 2009 Nissan Murano home for between $28,500 and $32,800.
