2004 Volvo XC90 T6 - for a friend by icedog97

I need to show my buddy how to use the internet
 
He was at a dealer and looking at a 2004 Volvo XC90 T6 (turbo).
Zip code 15237
62K Miles
Tires about 1/2 worn
Has leather, roof, 3rd row
Paint is in good condition...some minor scratches overall.
Interior is ok to good...he said it looks like it needs a good cleaning.
 
Dealer said he would sell for $14,500
 
I read up on these and the T6 has a transmission (GM 4 speed I think) that has been known to fail. He said the Carfax had no recalls or repairs.
 
I thought it seems like a good deal...but maybe the tranny problems are bigger than I read about?
 
Anyway...thoughts on the value of this vehicle?

Gonna reply to my own post...
 
Just read the "transmission" thread on the XC90...YIKES!!!
 
I guess I can see why they would be selling these for around $14,000.
 
It sounds like it's almost a given that if you have a T6, you are going to need a new transmission.

Wholesale is $11-12k. Doesn't sound like the dealer has done any recon.
Should be able to get it for $13-13500

thanks volvomax...
 
I guess the question is...would you buy it at this price (13-13.5K), given the known tranny issues with the T6? I am guessing I should not "recommend" it???
 
It seems like a lot of car for the money...but a risky proposition.
 
Anybody know where to find units sold/problems reported data? Just curious the percentage of 2004 T6 transmissions that have actually failed...

We have a 2007 Cayman for $33,000...
 
RE: The M3 SMG
 
Yes BMW CPOs stay with the car even if it is traded into a dealer. You don't need to do anything special to make it transfer.
 
All the BMW SMGs I have driven were bad I would stay away from it.
 
I think all the XC90 T6 Transmissions failed.

Tell your buddy to skip it at any price. Get a 2.5T and be far happier.

Or even a V8 if you can find one cheap enough.

Thanks for the information. Where are located with that vehicle? I am looking for a '07 XC90 with preferrably less than 30k miles. Any combo of RES and GPS would be nice but not mandatory. So realistically, I should look to spend around 30k for the car loaded and about 27k without those 2 options?
