ever play poker? My sentiments exactly! I'm an avid poker player and it would be akin to playing 3-card bluff with all your cards showing. Or like Russian roulette with all six chambers loaded. :› |

if this were another card game, we'd have to say 'go fish'. |

I kind of did what you are suggesting. After hearing about the great deal you could get with an X-plan, I called Ford to see if I could enroll my company (we are an indirect supplier). They said no we weren't large enough. I then did a google search on X-plan and found a 4X4 discussion group that was talking a lot about it. One of the debates was if "friends" were eligible for x-plan. A Ford employee said that they were and also said he was willing to sponsor anyone that e-mailed him. I took him up on his offer and he got me a pin number. I took that pin number to Village Volvo in MD and we started our negotiations from there. Actually I would have been quite happy with X-plan pricing but they couldn't find the car I wanted. Since the ruby red AWD car they found had a couple other bells and whistles on it, they threw those in for free. Now I think the wood steering wheel, reverse warning and Xenon headlights are some of the best things on the car. For an even 41K I got an '04 ruby red, AWD, 2.5, Xenon lights, Climate package, Premium sound, third row seating, wood steering wheel, reverse warning, floor mats and Volvo roadside assistance. I was pretty happy with the deal. Orb |

Eschut, Any chance you can provide more information concerning how to connect with the person who provided you with the Pin number? Or maybe how to connect with you more directly for the details. Thanks |

We'd prefer that you not give commercial contact information. Also, you can make your email address visible in your user profile which is preferable to posting your address directly in a posting. tidester, host |

| sounds like your persistence paid off, although there isn't really a lot of room on the invoice vs the msrp. congrats. | |

I have just ordered my 2004 2.5T XC90 AWD with Versatility, Climate, Premium, Rear Parking Assist. MSRP (inc. destination) $43000, Invoice $39893. My dealer gave me $40393 (inc. destination). The salesman said he gave me invoice price plus $1500. But from the data I have I only pay 500 over the invoice. So I don't konw if the base price has been reduced or the dealers have some kind of rebate from Volvo. The salesman even said I can get another 500 back for each car if we (my brother and I) buy two. I live in central Jersey. |

| OK.I am new to this. So, please help me out you X Plan experts. Let us say I negotiate down to $2k off the MSRP and let us assume that, this is the best offer this dealer will make. Can I then pull out my X Plan number and say give me this additional discount too? Assuming the whole Xplan rebate amount is paid to the dealer by Ford/Volvo, there should not be any problem because the dealer is not losing anything. But I want to make sure that indeed is the case. THESE NUMBERS ARE ONLY A SCENARIO THAT I BUILT UP, I AM YET TO GO TO THE DEALER. Thanks for any help from you expert negotiators. | |
