But no new 240. lol.

To quote the late great Michael Jackson, all I wanna say is they don't really care about us.

this is the demographic being targeted & it's just embarrassing.

Insider sources close to the project say the 2011 Murano convertible will be produced in limited numbers, and will be targeted at empty-nesters who need room to carry the grandkids, but still want something fun. But the kids will need to pack light, as the current Murano offers just 31.6 cubic feet of cargo capacity, and the convertible mechanism will certainly cut into that space.

Ah, there we go, actual, current pictures. (notice the lack of the roll hoop) The link referenced in the first post is a year old and someone's photoshop interpretation.

Obviously, a very niche product, but it also doesn't cost much to develop (versus, say, a new s-chassis). They will probably only sell a few thousand a year, but it will be enough to pay for the development costs and allow the Nissan brand to move upmarket.

edit: I also just noticed that it is a 2-door, not a 4-door like the photoshop.
