#120 of 139 Current deals on S60? by kwarnold Mar 02, 2008 (6:07 pm)
Hi everyone, My lease on my current car is up next month and I am looking for a nice "sporty" sedan to replace it. I had read on here that there were some BIG deals being made on S60's. Is that still the case?   I will almost undoubtedly lease again. 15K miles per year, 3-4 years (max). There were some early comments about discounts on Volvo leases of $5,000 to 7,000 if I remember correctly. (Should have re-read the posts before posting this one!)   My local dealer has a car that I have not seen yet, but their web site shows an MSRP of $27,200 so I am assuming it is optioned close to what I am looking for.   Can anyone share with me what I might expect the capitalized cost of the car to be on a lease? (Hope I said that correctly - basically "what SHOULD a car like this approximately cost?")   I want something below $400 per month and I am willing to put up a couple of dollars (not much, since it is a lease) in order to make things work.   Any insights on what I can expect or should target are GREATLY appreciated!   Thanks, Keith

#124 of 139 Volvo Sales Down Over 50% by observer22 Oct 25, 2008 (2:04 am)
Was surprised to read in an article about the overall economy that Volvo's sales are down over 50% currently. Since the sales numbers were never all that great to begin with, a 50% drop is amazingly bad. Future resale may be headed towards Saab/ Mitsubishi/Suzuki territory. With Toyota offering zero percent interest rates on Camry and most of its models, it is very difficult to justify buying a Volvo. Certainly it is a time to slowly and carefully consider your automotive options and decisions.
#125 of 139 2005 S60 2.5T by YEMandy Jan 17, 2009 (5:23 pm)
I test drove a 2005 Volvo S60 2.5T today at a local dealership. It has 48,000 miles and seems to be in great condition with having only 1 owner. They are asking $16,209. This would be my first Volvo and I really enjoyed the test drives today. Does this seem like a good deal, opinions? Thanks!

Replying to: YEMandy (Jan 17, 2009 5:23 pm) It seems high to me... I bought a 2007 S60 2.5T with Premium/Leather with 30K miles in December. The dealer wanted $21K, I negotiated it down to $18K without too much effort. And the '07 and newer has more features, including the turn signals on the mirror and MP3 aux jack.

Replying to: djminfll (Feb 12, 2009 5:37 am) Warning for anyone buying an S60 new....they lose their value more quickly than many of their competitors. Some sites have it as a best buy as a used car for that very reason. We bought a 2006 loaded S60 AWD in late 2006 (07's were out); sticker was $39.2K and we paid $31.5K - good deal, right? It was a great car and very reliable ( cannot knock the car), but..... A month ago the best we could get anywhere on a trade-in was $11K with 66K miles and the car was spotless. The dealer put it on the lot at $16K and had to drop the price to $13K to get a nibble. The salesman told me they got $12,750 for it. That guy got a great deal!!! Buy a used one and let someone else (like me) take the loss. Replies to this message: stkntraffic (Apr 15, 2009 1:36 am)

Replying to: pats1 (Apr 14, 2009 5:59 pm) In all fairness any 3 yr old car with 66K miles isn't going to be worth much.
