I'd appreciate your feedback about the following price I got to buy a 2007 AWD 3.2 XC90 from Volvo Dealership in Massachusetts: $41,609 out the door, I believe there are incentives involved in the reduced price but dealer was not very forthcoming. MSRP $47,195 OPTIONS AWD Magic Blue Metallic Climate Package Versatility Package Premium Package Navigation System Thanks for your help, first time looking at Volvo so I am not that knowledgeable "dealing" with the Sales approach

Replying to: harleynut (Mar 06, 2007 10:18 am) I built my car 3 times in KBB.com so that I could send bid requests to 9 dealers in total (6 outside my local zip). Once I received responses from the internet managers I began direct email and phone calls with each internet sales manager. The phone helps as it let's the dealership know that you are serious about the purchase and that they are competing for your business. Be nice but let them know that it all comes down to pricing. Here is an example of my first email to each internet manager once they responded to my KBB inquiry: ********************************************************** We're looking to complete the purchase within 3-10 days. I spoke with the wife tonight and here is what she is looking for: *Exterior - Ice White *Interior - Off Black (1st) or Sandstone Beige (2) Must Have Options: *MC177-Premium Package *MC178-Versatility Package *MC176-Convenience Package *800100-DVD Dual Screen Rear Seat Entertainment Nice to Have Options: *Wood Steering Wheel We're indifferent to the other options so please don't let it limit your search by excluding them. Please let me know the following when you respond: 1) Vehicle details (color, options, etc.) 2) MSRP Price 3) Invoice Price 4) Your OTD Price (assume 7.75% for taxes) 3) Do you have it in-stock? 4) ETA if not in-stock? ********************************************************** This information is key to make sure you do an apples-to-apples comparison with the vehicle quotes you receive back from the dealerships. I came up with a spreadsheet to help me compare vehicles with different options. Let me know if you'd like to use it for your analysis. The internet managers will probably ask you how their bid compares to other. Let them know your best price and ask them to beat or match it. They may ask you which dealerships they are competing against but I did not share this information. The reason one dealership asked was because they do not like to compete with a sister dealership (same owner)...in this case I asked who was the sister dealership and shared that one particular bid. Once you make the purchase.....don't let them sell you anything else, extended warranties, gap insurance, etc....fight the temptation. I got an extended warranty through my GEICO insurance, it kicks in between 50,000 to 100,000. It's a fraction of the cost and is pay as you go versus everything up front. Hope this helps and good luck!!

I'm getting the following quotes from several dealers in Atlanta: 2007 XC-90 V-8 AWD. Packages: Touring, Convenience, Climate Loaner Car - 6,000 miles MSRP: $50,610 Invoice: $47,368 Listing: $40,610 Is this a good deal and what are the odds of getting them in the $37,000 range?

Replying to: cfkii (Mar 23, 2007 7:14 pm) Lease or purchase however, there is no way that a loaner would sell for $37,000 |

Hello, Would appreciate any input on a lease deal that we have pending: 2007 Volvo XC90 V8 with Touring Pkg, Climate Pkg, Convenience Pkg, Navigation System, Dual Screen Rear Seat Entertainment, Bi-Xenon Headlights, Wood Steering Wheel. MSRP $49,315 Internet Sale Price $42,755 Lease quotes: 24 mo/12,000 mi - $564 per month with $3,000 down 36 mo/12,000 mi - $639 per month with $3,000 down Also, I have heard from a few dealers that it is hard to get the V8, and one said that you can't custom order them anymore - is this true? Thanks for any input you have!
