Thanks jk! Good to know you can at least access the back even by hurdling. That didn't seem to be an option when I first saw them.
 
Enjoy your new ride and the relative calm before the new baby arrives!

--Montclair Volvo is going out of business--
 
Really? We've been been repeat customers there until just last month. We were looking for a used XC90 but all the ones they had were a bit overpriced and they would not come down enough in price. I had offered what I felt was a fair price based on information gathered here, but they would not budge. We ended up buying a CPO MDX from the DCH Acura store down the road. Ironically, I just looked at the website and still saw the exact XC90 we were haggling over listed for almost what I had offered them originally.
 
We still have our S70 that is my daily driver, but it'll still be a few years before we are ready to replace that. I guess then I'll have to look elsewhere.

Volvo Return by fluid15

Last Friday I returned our Leased '07 XC90 3.2 AWD. I was happy with the Sales guys I worked with and the Dealer (Powell Volvo - Scottsdale) was fine overall. We were discussing the current state of SUV sales, pricing, MF, etc. and their current MF was very competitive at something like 0.0001 but the Residuals were Horrendous at 49% for 24 months!!! Why would anyone want to a new ~ $50k vehicle when it's value drops in half in 2 years? Much better to just buy a slightly used one, which is which we did - we bought an X3 with 20k miles and still have a full year of warranty. It's not as big as the XC90 but we didn't need the extra room as we only have 1 kid. My wife loved the XC90 styling since she laid eyes on it but after driving the X3 for the first time she is can't believe the difference, it truly is night and day. Not sure what we'll do when we need a bigger vehicle but for now the X3 will work out perfect for her. I was never a fan of the X3 styling but it really drives great - the steering, handling and engine are very good.

Did he actually quote a .0001 MF with a 49% residual? Actually thats not bad considering that I recently got a quote of 46% residual with a .0202 MF on a V8 - 2008 version. Walked away because the rate was so high. Was this a Volvo Finance deal?

He opened up his book of current deals and when we looked at the MF we thought "wait a minute ... that's pretty good" but then the residual was 49% and it made sense on why the payments wouldn't match what I had 2 yrs ago.
 
Yes, it was Volvo Financial, I think he made a comment that they were the only ones willing to write leases on the XC90's right now because everyone is losing money on them. I was told my return is going straight to Volvo Financial because they can't sell it for a profit on their lot. If you have the time, contact their internet departement. That's who I went through when I negotiated my deal and was very happy dealing with them because they were straight shooters.

... BTW, I'm on their mailing list and just recieved one stating that all 2008 Volvos are going for Invoice minus Volvo incentives. Sounds like they REALLY want them gone!

Volvo xc90 Lease by floridamom1

Just leased a 2008 XC90 3.2 with 7 passenger / blis / 48 months/48k miles - $2000 down (includes all costs & first payment) and $441/month. Residual is $12,948 MSRP was $45k. I hope I got a good deal.....especially because after driving a 2004 Cadillac SRX for three years, I really dont like my new volvo AT ALL! Seats seem hard and uncomfortable, car seems sluggish compared to the caddy, and I miss many of the little features my cadillac had. Who ever heard of a $45000 car that doesnt "beep" when you lock the doors with the remote? Guess it's a bad decision I will have to live with for the next 47 months!!

You are going to get used to it and gonna love it. I hate that beep from other cars. Need to be low profile. Volvo is safety, nuff said.

It has a lot of nice little cubby holes in front & rear that is convenient; my wife liked the "user-friendliness" of the design but like you - she did not like the seats!

You will love the seats on a long drive - driven 10 or 11 hours straight with no fatigue whatsoever. Wish they were a little more supportive on the sides and the cushion could be a little firmer on the seat as you tend to sink a little bit too much. Try driving a Mercedes for the same time and distance and you'll really know what uncomfortable really is. Seats are really way too firm and the leather doesn't give.
 
What was the cap cost on your volvo and what was the money factor?
