Replying to: erics6 (May 27, 2009 9:34 pm) I saw the new Competition Yellow yesterday (went to buy some rubber mats for mine) and it looked even better in person. It's only on 2009 models, though, and not on the hard top models. Bummer. |

Location: New York, NY 2004 Volvo S80 2.9 FWD 45,000 miles Silver exterior/black leather interior Alloys, sunroof, leather (typically equipped S80) Condition: Medium dent on fender (deer accident) and small to medium dent on front valence (hit a high curb)- Nothing wrong mechanically however, all cosmetic Interior: Cupholder in front broken Tires: 2 years old Brakes just replaced, but emit noticeable screech when hard braking Regular maintenance done I know I'm going to lose some in the trade value, but i don't want to go through the hassle of getting any of the mentioned issues fixed. I hope to get around $8000 or maybe slightly more. Possible? It is a trade in at a Volvo dealer (if this makes any difference) and i plan to buy a new XC90. Thanks.

Regular maintenance done. No damage.. Clean Car title Private Owner. Asking for 5k firm. Should I buy? Do you think its a fair price... I was expecting to give around 4.5k Is maintenance for 10 year old car high? First car so little over cautious...

Replying to: volvomax (May 30, 2009 8:45 am) Most dealers have started around $5K, best offers I have received after negotiation are 6500 (cheaper new car price) and 6750 (more expensive new car price). I would be happy with $7K and a reasonable discount on a new car. I am looking at a 2009 Civic LX-S Automatic. Right now, my best combined offer is $16885 for the new car with the $6500 trade-in. What do you think?
