Replying to: au94 (Aug 26, 2005 8:11 pm) never mind the incentives, we got an 06 T5 w/auto and premium pkg Saturday from Volvo Gwinnett Place in Duluth, GA. OTD was 27800. Dealership was great, no hassles, no tricks, no pressure. Just a fair price on the Volvo and a fair price on our trade (thanks to Terry on this one). Love the car! Color looks great and man is it fast. Can't wait to get in broken in and really let it stretch it's legs. Thanks to everyone whos posts here. It really helped to have some real world benchmarks when we went to the dealership.

The S40 and the Mazda 3 are the same car underneath actually. The wife chose the 3 over the S40 because of the rediculously high headrests. The 3's are a bit smaller, so she bought it. The S40 was a bit more expensive also. She paid about $16.8 for the 3 S sedan and the cheapest Volvo with just automatic was $20,995 before t, t & l. Did see a white S40 on the drive home tonight and it was a really sharp looking car. We're just cousins with the S40...and I think we're both part of the Ford family i think.   The Sandman

Looking into getting a 06 S40 2.4i / select / sports / leather / auto. Has anyone had any experience in current OTD price this this configuration? Dealer is taling ~$100 over invoice. Comments? Suggestions?

Did you drive both the Mazda 3 and Volvo s40? The s40 really isn't crossed shopped with the Mazda and although they share underpinnings, they feel quite different. The Mazda handles sharper but feels considerably lighter, rides differently, doesn't have the 4 grades of steel as the Volvo, doesn't have the whiplash protection, and numerous other aspects that make Volvos Volvos, not to mention different engines and brakes. The Mazda is a fine value, and a fun to drive car for sure, but it really is quite a different car than the Volvo outside of general size and some shared components.
#380 of 689 S40 Pricing Questions by cllaw Sep 11, 2005 (12:06 pm)
Hi all   I'm a newbies here so please forgive me if I put down something funny.   I got a quote from my dealer with S40i with option listed below 1: Select Packages 2: Climate Packages 3: Metallic paint 4: Automatic transmission.   The MSRP is $28,750 and the dealer quote to me is $26,480. The dealer is located in Brooklyn, New York City. There are only 3 Volvo dealers in the town and one of them give me a crazy price so I won't go back there.   I'm looking into enter a 2 years lease with 10,000 miles per year. Do you think any dealer willing to do a 2 years lease? I check around and most of the dealer out there offer 3 years lease only? I will appreciate if any one can give me a hand on it.   Regards   Alex the rookie
#381 of 689 Any info on this???????? by batman702 Sep 15, 2005 (7:00 pm)
I was listening to the radio here in las vegas, and a volvo commercial comes on. It has something to do with the new pricing on the volvos, there is a $3000 incentive right now? and they will double it on the remaining 05's. Has anyone heard of this? is it regional? I can't find anything about it online or on the dealers website. Any info would be good, thanks.                                          Ready to buy a s40 t5 in vegas.
#382 of 689 Hi there... by corkylou26 Sep 20, 2005 (6:22 pm)
is there any complaints about the s40? Any problems? I think it's a sharp looking car. I'm debating over a saab9-3 or a S40 Replies to this message: au94 (Sep 21, 2005 6:09 am)

Replying to: corkylou26 (Sep 20, 2005 6:22 pm) We've had a T5, auto with premium pkg for about a month now and love it. The car is quite powerful with the turbo. Very comfortable as well. Only "complaint" I have is that the space between the brake and gas pedals is tight for me. Does not bother my wife however, which works as this is her car. Read the other posts in the forum and make you decision. I did not see anything that scared me off the car. We also considered the 9-3 (scared of reliability), CTS (too expensive) and TSX (too common). One of the things we like best about the car is that it is not too common, at least in our area. BMW's, Lexi, Infiniti and Acura at almost every intersection, but not many S40's. Same could be said for the Saab, but again reliability and resale scared me. We'll see how the Volvo fares.
#384 of 689 93 vs s40 by dhanley Sep 23, 2005 (2:05 pm)
My opinion on that was that in 2005, the 9-3 was better at the low end, more power, AWD, leather, stability control all in the base car, but the volvo was better at the high end when equipped with the t5, awd, etc.   dave Replies to this message: brightness04 (Oct 05, 2005 8:37 pm)

Replying to: dhanley (Sep 23, 2005 2:05 pm) You were probably thinking of 9-2 vs. S40, not 9-3 vs. S40. 9-3 is a lot more luxurious than 9-2, but no AWD, yet.
