Hey oasispirate by captaincrunch

Your thinking along the right lines - well sort of.
 
What are you basing your 23000 off of though? What facts do you have? What if you could really get the car for 22000? First off, try to slow down! I know you really want the car, but relax.
 
Look back at my previous posts in this forum and build the same car and request quotes from nearby dealers (other than this one). See what they respond with. That gives you real, live ammo!
 
Then you know what the market value of the car is ...
 
Make sense? Keep posting any questions - I will help

I made a offer of 23500 today out the door. The dealer said I was way off. Maybe I'll just get quotes from other dealers, ball is in his court though.
 
Anyone buy a similar vehicle what did you pay for?

Well...this probably doesn't help too much since we leased and there are huge finance incentives for leases...but our cap cost on a T5 w/ Premium was about $22,000 and that included a $595 bank fee that I don't think applies for purchases.

Well boy did this deal just change. I got another dealer involved and told the original dealer I was going to go with the other. I genuinely was going to. They had a loaner that had a MSRP of 31,000 and 7500 miles on it. They were going to give it to me for 25800.
 
The other dealer just countered with a 2007 Volvo S40 2.4, Automatic, leather, Climate pkg, and Select package, etc/
 
So now I am getting a vehicle with a MSRP of 29 or 30k for 25200.00
 
I am happy with the deal, hopefully get the vehicle on monday.
 
My advice to everyone is to listen ot these posters, they know what they are talking about. I think it's ironic that I am right at 4k off MSRP.

So wow, the vehicle was suppose to get here on Mon or Tues and it never did. Now the guy is telling me he didn't offer me the Select package (which I call BS on). That was the closing aspect of the deal.
 
I am done with him as a dealer and maybe the S40 as well!

Just drove home a '07 T5 FWD with premium, audio, and climate pkgs, plus xenon, sirius, and keyless. MSRP $34,812, reduced to $26,600 by leasing with US Bank for 3 years $460/month. Electric Silver Metallic, slightly darker than the regular silver.

You guys are destroying the deals I am getting offered I think. What do you guys think I should be paying for 2007 Volvo 2.4 with Select, Climate, and Titanium Grey.
 
I have completely given up on this volvo dealer, the closest other dealer is a hour and a half way, so I am wondering if thats why he isn't as willing to deal it seems.
 
I think I might wait till I move to Raleigh next month to begin car shopping again, more competition there.

Personally, if they are screwing with you, you would probably be better off emailing the other dealerships....even if it's 90 mins away. Just get the deal negotiated and on paper and sent to you before you go. Then you just have to get there and sign. And...like I posted earlier, you can see that we got a 2007 s40 T5 with Premium (which I think has a higher MSRP than the config you want) for $350/month (including tax) on a 36mo/15k mile lease. Upfront cost was $600ish for 1st month, registration, $45 doc fee, and tax.

Sorry, I don't know what is the right price. But let's start a new topic with more detail on the spec, and leave the TTL out since it is different for every state.
 
2007 S40 2.4i
Base : $24,240
styling : $1675 (leather seat)
Select pkg : $1823
Sport pkg : $875
Delivery : $745
-------------------------
Total MSRP : 29358
 
What should be a reasonable price (before TTL)? $23000? $22500? I don't think it should be more than that.
 
Let me share a little bit of my S60 buying experience. The exact spec is a little vague now. But, it was a 2006 S60 (purchased in march 2006 in Texas) With premium package, sport package, I think MSRP was in the 35 to 36k range. Final price was $28,800 + TTL. = $31k plus change. At the time the premium package was a factor incentive, so maybe without the incentive one should expect to pay $1500 more? The point is that Volvo dealers seem to have a lot of room for haggle.
