The 2008 Rouge SL

Man I am surprised! The 2008 Nissan Rouge has resurfaced with a new hot package. But unfortunately, I don’t have the complete details about this great looking premium SUV, just a piece of the whole lot of specifications about the ride. I’m sure every car geek will fall for the brand new face of the 2008 Rouge and the great stuff it has to offer - especially those cool brake dust shields. 

Anyway, according to my source, the Auto Channel, this is the bottomline:

Nissan’s new rogue crossover sport utility is loaded with great features and decent performance. As a competitor with the Toyota RAV4 and Honda CR-V, it can hold its own in performance, comfort and feature content. The fact that it looks like a mini-Murano doesn’t hurt, either.
