Also while shopping, one dealership would not let me test drive on the interstate at first. Their reasoning was that the cars were so popular they did not want to put extra mileage on them. After letting them know that I would not buy the car if I had no idea how it would feel (esp acceleration) they did let me drive it again. Of course by then I'd already decided not to buy the car from them if I did choose the XC90, and it turns out they were one of the ones they felt they could get more than MSRP anyway   Congrats on your purchase. That's a great deal. The XC90's are hotter in some parts of the U.S. than in others. I believe they are still going for MSRP in my area.   Regards to the dealership that told you they didn't like putting extra mileage on them due to their popularity: All I can say is my dealership had 2 XC90's (one 2.5T and one T6) that were for demo purposes only. They let us drive them hard and allowed us to put them through some rigorous cornering and stopping maneuvers. You didn't end up buying from those guys, did you?

No, I did not buy from the dealership who at first wouldn't let me have what I consider a reasonable, typical test drive. It would have been a dream to have found a dealership that had a demo.   I feel very happy to have gotten the 1700 off. It was a Volvo promotion being held in TX, FL, and GA that had to be on a premium, versatility, FWD, 2.5T before Dec. 31, 2003. What surprised me was that very few dealerships in my area were honoring this promotion. One dealership told me the car had to be no more/no less than what was described. One would honor the promotion, let me order the car with whatever additional features I wanted, but didn't have any coming in before the end of the year. Every dealership was kinda shocked that Volvo was having the promotion since they weren't having any problems selling the cars without it.   I found out about the promotion because I'd been shopping for the V70 and ended up on Volvo's mailing list so we got a tri-fold advertisement about the XC90 promotion. Sorry I don't have any wonderful tactics to offer you on how to finagle dealerships to back off MSRP.

I have ordered my XC90 through the X Plan (delivery sometime in February). Where can I go to show the dealer this additional $500 off (assuming they don't show me)?
#69 of 1832 $500 off by jblaze13 Jan 11, 2004 (7:23 pm)
All you need to do is ask them about it. If they aren't aware, they have a system set up where they can find out. I work for Ford and I had absolutely no idea. Usually they send an email or something notifying us. I found out from a dealer who was trying to get me to purchase an XC90 that wasn't equipped the way I wanted. When I called the store I'm picking mine up from, the salesman (manager) told me "Oh yeah, I was going to surprise you!" It's not even on the Ford AXZ website yet, so I haven't seen it written. However, I had my dealer right it on the buy order.
