any updated price for S60? by zwu

I am looking to buy a S60. had a friend who bought a new 2006 S60 model last summer for $25800 with sport wheels.
and I saw some amazing price like $28000 with premium package.
asked a few local dealers in Miami, FL, the best price so far I have is $27800 for the base model. Not even with metallic paint.
is there anybody know a recent transaction for reference?
does that mean I need to wait till the summer to get a good deal? or maybe i shall consider to buy it in NJ?
thanks in advance.

We paid $31k last July for an '06 with premium, convenience and climate....and AWD. We deliberately waited for the big cash-back clearance incentives. I would say that if you got an '07 with everything you mentioned and AWD, you got a great deal. BTW, the AWD is awesome. We just got a foot of heavy, wet snow and it just goes right through it.

My 2007 for $31K did not have AWD, but included metallic paint, satellite radio prep as well as prem./conv/climate packages. Still think it was pretty good deal for '07. They also gave me a generous trade-in value. Am really enjoying the car1

Just sealed the deal on an 07 S60R full spec minus navigation and satelite radio prep. Paid 37k and change. I'm doing the Volvo Factory pickup and leave in the middle of June to pick it up.

So Upside Down I can't see straight. by sunnyday220

Hello all, I really need some fast help. I am trying to get out of a 2006 Mercedes-Benz C230. Because of a great promotion on my job, I now have 22,000 miles on the car and I bought it new in July 06 and the miles will keep coming. I found several dealers that are offering incentives one of which is Volvo on the S60. After offering $30,000 on the S60, the dealer said he'd only give me $19,000 on my trade. The payoff is $35,000. . Should I just give up and live with my huge Mercedes mistake, or is there someone who can give me advise on this issue. My credit score is 679 -711. Help please

Just bought a 2006 S60 T5 SE by l12

Just got a 2006 S60 T5 SE at what I think it a pretty good price, at least according to Edmunds TMV and what I read here.
 
It's got leather, moonroof, 9 speakers, pretty much all the upgrades but no navi system or heated seats.
 
Great condition but 28,000 miles after just 1 year of ownership.
 
Paid $23K flat in Florida. Taxes came out to about $1800 additional which was covered by my trade-in (old poor condition 97 Nissan Sentra w/ 66,000 miles which needed $1000 in repairs).
 
Really happy with my car so far!
 
Is it a good deal?
 
$23K was the price they told me when I walked on the lot (Sticker price was $27K) so I was skeptical and tried my best to negotiate it down but they just kept saying "This is the rock-bottom, if you want to pay less we should look at the S40s".

Let me get this straight...you have a credit score below 720, and you're driving a new Mercedes? The kind of advice you need won't be found on any car forum. Try www.suzeorman.com

Hi, Kasperghost (and anyone else who knows)...
 
I wanted your advice. I've got a 2006 S60 T5 and according to my trip monitor, I'm averaging 17-19mpg. (The car has 15,000 miles on it - I bought it used from a dealer in May 06 at 7700 miles. The dealer had put it on the road in Dec 05.)
 
I do all city (Los Angeles) driving, not much freeway though. What is your secret?
 
What gasoline are you using? (BTW, I can't get a straight story on whether 87 is bad for the car or not... the manual says use either, the dealer I bought it from was putting 87 in it, and the dealer nearest me who just did a service on it says, only use 91!)
 
Thanks.

As for gas, 87 is certainly not bad for the car. Any higher may give you increased performance in terms of speed, but not better MPG.
 
I have the exact same car as you with 28,000 miles.
 
As for mpg, I get 20 city in a small city with much less traffic and stopping than LA so I'm sure 17-19 is not bad really. All you can do to improve is not use AC, keep windows up (air drag), accelerate slowly, don't go too fast, and keep the tire pressure high.

Ok, what do you all think of this offer...
 
'07 S60 2.5T
Premium Package
Climate Package
 
$23,886.75
 
We are going to be leasing it and with $2k down for about $320 for 36 with a 42% residual which leaves us able to purchase at the end of the term a 3 yr old S60 for around 10k
