Replying to: volvobuff (Jul 06, 2008 4:44 pm)  but significantly less tall than 6'...  I also asked the dealer about a larger rear view mirror-he said he had never been asked that and had no idea if Volvo even offered one... This is the same dealer who is trying to talk me into an S80 as " cheaper than an s40 lease". Somehow I don't think his numbers will add up...

Replying to: volvomax (Jul 09, 2008 9:41 am) two questions: 1) If i lease then want to buy out the lease before it ends, how is the purchase price calculated? 2) Why is MSRP used to calculate depreciation-and not the sell price, which we all struggle to negotiate! I think I may have to move this post over to the s80 lease questions-But thanks for the input!!

Replying to: s60leaser (Jul 11, 2008 6:29 am) Typically, remaining payments plus residual. 2) Why is MSRP used to calculate depreciation-and not the sell price, which we all struggle to negotiate! That's actually in your favor, so don't argue. For example, you negotiate a $40k car with a 50% residual to $35k. With the residual based on MSRP, you are paying $15k depreciation. If the 50% residual was based on purchase price, it would be $17,500, leaving you paying $17,500, or $2500 more than the first scenario.

Replying to: s60leaser (Jul 11, 2008 9:42 am) Doing it your way, you would pay more interest. As well as having a higher payment. Both of which would increase your buyout costs. |

| Didn't see any exactly appropriate place to post this so here goes- Have a 95 Volvo 940. When you are running above 45 MPH and for extended distances the AC is so cold it freezes you out,. At slow speeds or with stop and start, it becomes just sort of tepid. However, after you have run it 30 minutes or so it seems to stay cold and be OK even if you shut if off for an hour or so- say drs. appt. Seems like it must be pressure or relay related but that's just a guess. Anyone have any ideas? | |
