It doesn't matter what the dealer of your choice says. You've got the quote from Knoxville. What did the third dealer say? If there isn't a third dealer simply tell your dealer on Saturday that you'd like to do business with him, you'd like the red better anyway, but that you can't in good conscience just pay more for the car. I mean anyone can see that - it's just common sense.
 
If you get a third dealer in the mix - you may get the price even lower before you go on Saturday. Where are you getting the money - do you have your own financing? It makes it easier if you do, but not essential. And don't forget you need quotes on the value of your trades! Get crackin'!

It's ****crunch**** time capt crunch! *lol*
I printed out the Trade in values from edmonds will that do?
I don't think I have time to get in person trade values since most major dealers are an hour away. I mentioned the trades after the 2nd dealer quoted me the 27k price. He was pleased with my 1996 Chev Cavalier having only 67k miles on it but was hesitant when I mentioned the 2003 Chevy 3500 Express Cargo Van with 262k miles on it. He felt we would do better selling it on our own but we live in such a small rural area I don't think it will happen. We really want rid of it. Therefore I am afraid what Dealer #1 will say about it. *sigh*... so stressfull. We even put it in the local bargain finder (with no calls).

I wonder what Volvo Credit's rates are. I emailed Dealer #1 to ask. Is the rate based on credit? I can get local bank financing but unsure of the amount needed. What do you suggest? I am to be at the dealer at noon and the bank closes at noon. WWYD?

Got it~ by jessreds40

Got my 2007 Passion Red Volvo on Saturday. Took me 3 hrs to leave the dealership. They worked with me well and gave us fair trade in for our two autos. They gave me slightly higher than what edmunds.com showed so I was pleased. I got the price down to where I wanted it. However my monthly payment was increased because I purchased extended warranty (72mo/100k miles). Overall I am please and estatic with my purchase. I love it! Just got through washing and polishing it this evening. My neighbors eyeballed it as they went by my drive!! The dealership took my picture with it while holding a Volvo For Life banner! They are suppose to email it to me! Thank you to CaptiainCrunch for all your advice and encouragement. I was focused and we done the deal!
Hope to have bragging photos up soon.

I have a quote from a dealer need advice! by oasispirate

First car buying experience where I am the negotiator. The dealer's initial quote on 2007 Volvo S40 2.4 Titanium Grey w/Beige T Tech.
 
Automatic Trans
Met Paint
Climate Package (which I don't really want, but this is the most basic model has found that can get at the moment)
 
The MSRP is 27,335. He is giving me a quote of 24,860 and out the door with Taxes and tags 25972.00.
 
I was thinking of a countering with a offer of 23000.00 and not going any higher than 23500. Is this reasonable?
