I just bought a 2004 AWD XC90 at Volvo of Tacoma(WA) in Fife WA.I had a choice of 7 dealers in the area and I just had a hunch that they would have the best selection of 04's and because of location offer the best price.As it turned out they were down to 1 2004, it was Black sapphire and fully loaded with every option except the 18"
wheels.
 
The msrp was 46,895 which is where the sticker price was aprox.invoice was 43,241 ,TMV was 43,460.He took off 1700 for the versatility pkg.
taking it down to 41,541, an added 500.00 for total of 42,041(1200 below TMV).
 
I did add running boards for 875.I got talked into (by my wife) the total chip guard protection
899.00 and the paint and interior protection 595.
I was offered the extended warranty from 4 yrs to 7 yrs for an additional 1995.00 but passed, and passed on the stolen car protection systems.

I ordered it like you would from a dealership. I picked model, color, interior, option packages, etc. Once it was on a ship I could track it by port city. Worked out real nice. Some dealerships may be able to do as well or better on in stock '04s. You may want to check both, especially if you are not tied to a specifically configured XC90.

A midwestern newspaper would like to talk with someone who, in the past month, bought a luxury vehicle (other than a Lexus) for which minimal incentives were available. Please reply to jfallonedmunds.com by Friday, October 8, 2004 with your daytime contact info and a few words about your purchase decision.

Hi! Wanted to thank you for the info and I ordered my XC90 through a local dealership last night. When I told them I was going thru the Military sales program, then he told me I could do the same thing w/ the dealership. They just need a POA from my husband and a military ID. It only took 30-45 min and the process was the same, except I had to put a $2000 deposit down and then pay the balance 30 days before delivery. No destination charge and saved a couple thousand off the base price. It also takes about 12 weeks for delivery but it's worthing saving a couple of thousand. I'm still waiting for a military sales person in Kuwait to respond to my email 5 days ago. Thanks again. I've learn alot of great info from these forums. J

Congratulations. Which model did you get? We are trying to decide whether to forego a 2004 tax deduction in favor of getting an XC90 V8 in March.

thanks! 2.5 AWD ruby red w/ all the bells & whistles. I liked the gas mileage better than T6 and couldn't really tell the difference in handling and acceleration. J

I agree with your assessment of the 2.5 vs. T6. I would be deciding between the V8 6-speed and the 2.5 5-speed, but have completely ruled out the T6 4-speed.
 
Just curious, did they give you any break in price on "all the bells and whistles" or are you paying full MSRP for the options? If so, you've still got a good deal, but I noticed the options are marked up quite a bit more than the base price of the car. When I priced out a loaded 2.5, I came up with a total of $9,765 in options that have an invoice price of $8,396. That's a $1,330 markup, whereas, in the U.S., the base car itself is only marked up about $2,300 ($36,615 MSRP vs. invoice of $34,611). At least one dealer I talked to said they might be able to negotiate "a little discount" on the options on an Overseas Delivery purchase.
 
Congrats again, sounds like you've got a great car to look forward to.

With this kind of waiting period - go with Overseas delivery at $39,625 (as described)- will save over $1500 more + you will get two round trip tickets to Europe and a free night in Gothenburg.
