So it seems like the only downside to OSD is waiting a month or two before you actually get your car back in the states. So let me ask this question. . .
 
If you currently have a car that you want to trade in, how does that work? Do you have to trade it in at the time you leave to Sweden, or do you keep it until your car arrives in the U.S.?
 
Basically, I can't really afford to be carless for 8 weeks.

Free Premium Package on the S40? by czm3136

I've read a couple of other messages regarding the premium package being offered for free on the 2004.5 S40 for July and August.
 
- Can anyone confirm?
- Is it only offered if you finance/lease through Volvo Finance or is it offered by another bank?
 
This may have an impact on my decision to go with the S40 instead of the TSX........

The free Premium Package (basically the Invoice price on this) is available through the end of August on the 2004.5 models only - At least that was what I was told. I just bought the 2004.5 T5 (Passion Red, prem pkg, prem audio, bi-xenon) for $100 over the Invoice price last weekend with this offer. I don't think you get any special financing deal if you take the free Premium package? I got my financing elsewhere. I bought it at the same dealership in CA that "WayBeyond" mentioned in his post last month.

Wow, congrats on your purchase. $100 over invoice is really good....when I was first looking at the T5, I didn't think I'd be able to get one at a reasonable price. They were quoting we crazy lease numbers almost near the mid 4's and that was including paying some of the fees upfront! And Edmunds listed that people in my area were paying around $1500 over invoice, which is pretty steep.
 
Now with an incentive like this one and the new money factors that are currently out on the leases, the price quotes seem to be a little better. But you're right, I wonder if taking the free premium package means the financing is through a company other than Volvo (who has an attractive money factor). The reason I would like to go with Volvo Finance is because we already lease one car through them and will be eligible for another $1000 off.
 
They seem to get you somehow, but I'll be happy with my $1000 off and whatever other haggling I can do. Your $100 over invoice has inspired me. Thanks!

my new S40 by bpwrightwv

I just got my new 2004.5 S40 with 2.4i,
flint gray metallic, prem pkg, climate pkg
and convenience pkg for $25k.
Though they never mentioned it during the negotiations (all through email, and I knew this to be the case b/c of other posters here) the premium pkg was 'free' and I did sign a form acknowledging it was 'free'. I got 2.9% up to 48 months through Volvo finance. There are a lot of buttons and settings that I still need to figure out, but I'm happy with the deal I got and look forward (hopefully) to a good Volvo experience.
Thanks to all who've posted here and the other S40 board.

Went to Fairfax Volvo today and bought a new 2004.5 s40 T5...
 
Silver metallic
Premium Package
Climate Package
Bi-xenon headlights
 
Total - 27000 (not incl tax, tags, title and destination - which came to around 28600) financed for 36 months 1.9
 
Had to spend basically the whole day and put up a fight to get the dealer to drop down to the price above.

I don't know if this will help you but I bought a 2005 S40 T5 AWD for $28.000. The car is equipped with the premium package, 6 disc cd changer (not premium sound), heated seats and metallic paint. I ordered the car for delivery in europe through Volvo OSD but, I work in europe for a U.S. based company. When you check the OSD price list compared with state side MSRP you will save.

Volvo Orange County (CA) was good to us. Our 2004.5 T5 with sport, premium, 6-disc premium sound, about everything except navi or climate was 27,200. Dont know if I could have gotten in for less, but I was happy with the price.
 
I've purchased and leased before, and this time was the easiest, and as a bonus the sales guy was not creepy. And I dont work there
