Any feedback on buying a New 2005 VS New 2006? Any problems with a 2005 that it should be avoided?
 
Bellingham WA area dealer has a New (125 miles) 2005 S40 T5 AWD as follows-
Audio package-S
Climate Package
Convenience Package
Bi-Xenon Headlights
Power Glass Sunroof
Automatic T-tec upholstery - not leather
 
It is passion red with Quartz beige interior.
 
MSRP=$33,745
Dealer Invoice $31,574
 
Dealer is Asking for $27,950. Have not had any further negotiating.
 
Any thoughts?
 
 Thanks!

Marksnark...lousy deal in my opinion....
 
darcars in Rockville,md are knocking $5,230.00 off all their new 06 S40's regardless of sticker. Your deal is only $500 more for an 05!! not good enough in my opinion.
 
In my opinion, an 05 should be several thousand dollars more off.

I highly recommend Fremont Volvo and their internet sales rep (see previous post on June 9th). A friend just bought an '06 S40 a few days ago from San Leandro, but they were not willing to offer as great a discount as Fremont or Pleasanton.

Did I just miss a huge incentive break in June? All of you guys are saying 4500-5500 off MSRP. Are deals like these still available. Please get back to me, need to decide on a car by the end of the week and getting a deal like those described above would put me in an S40, otherwise not.

Ya, I've done some calling around and it looks to be about $5000 off of MSRP right now....base models for 2.4i manual in non-metallics can easily be had for 19500 in the SF bay area....anybody find anything cheaper? i'm tempted to pick it up since i've already got financing in place but I really just want a base model with a metallic color but those seem rare...

I would like to go to a dealer with a price, though I am not sure how to figure out how to price these. There are many options listed on the Edmunds site, and I am not sure which of these features can be realistically selected?
 
My only requirements:
- Automatic
- navigation
- the leather interior
 
Is it possible to get one with just these options? If not, if I get these options, what other options are likely to come with it?
 
Thanks!

Thats a VERY tough car.
I would be really surprised if you found one.
Nav is the issue.
A leather car is typically going to have the Select pkg if it is a 2.4i or the Premium pkg if it is a T5.

Yup,
Those cars were typically built in Black, Red or White.
