Maybe you will can get 1-2mpg more as the car breaks-in after a few thousand miles.
Please refrain from using terms that you as a dealer use on a consumer site, as in 'delivery', since it easily identifies you as a dealer and nullifies your desire to inflate the prices on this site.
Congrats!
If your reply was directed at my posting and you assume that because I used the word "delivery" I am dealer or work for one (and therefore my motives for posting here are suspect), you are clearly ignorant and closed-minded. I have taken "delivery" of many cars in my 30+ years of driving - all as a consumer, and have never worked in the car business in any capacity. I don't know what caused to reach that conclusion and then take the time to pen that post, but apparently you need to increase the breadth of your own vocabulary and ability to READ what others want you to learn from what they share here as opposed to assuming subtrifuge and assailing common folk who simply want to share their experiences here.

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.
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".
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.
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.
'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
How does the $ 500 over invoice seem?
I also tend to baby my turbo on these kinds of trips. I try to stay below the magic 2700 RPM barrier or ease past it. The only time I start ripping on my turbo is when the engine has been running for at least 20-30 minutes. Having the manual allows for very low shifts.
Gas- Premium.
Your car has adjustable cams, knock sensors, etc. that manage fuel ignition to the nth degree. Fuel is a choice because the car compensates. You will lose power with lower octane ratings though because they atomize less quickly and less fuel is burned per stroke, therefore the engine "detunes" itself. Octane rating is how quickly the gas evaporates- nothing to do with power. (I am sure the power loss is miniscule though)
My wife grannies her truck around and it specifically states premium only- yet it has been running on regular for several years just fine.
Were all services done?
Don't know that this was much help.
What's you color and options- don't you love the way it drives!
Good luck.
MSRP: 35400
Invoice (per dealership) 31500
Dealer Incentives 4500
Invoice from Edmunds 30495
So according to the worksheet i subtract 4500 from the invoice 30495 & have a figure of 25995. This is the amount I should pay? Are they going to laugh me off the lot when I offer that amount?

- MSRP: $35,725
- Cap cost (negotiated deal): $25,425
- Residual value: $12,488
- Money factor: .00191
- Term: 48 months/12,000 miles
- Total due at delivery: $629 (first payment, doc, title)
- Monthly payment (includes tax): $379.72
- Ohio tax (6.25%) and bank fee was worked into the lease
Basically I got the car for $100 over invoice. And then there was $8000 of customer cash from Volvo if leasing through third-party bank (US Bank in my case).
Using consumer reports data that include incentives #'s I should start negotiating at $28172. Am I missing something?

The best price before tax I can get is 28.5k. But the dealer said this offer is only valid by next Monday. Is this a good deal? In addition, will the price of volvo 07 model decease a lot in July? Thanks a lot!

I remember seeing a post a few weeks ago, I dont remember if it was in the Volvo boards or maybe Ford. It had a link that showed you how much above or below invoice particular car makers are selling. I remember Volvo being something like .5% below.
Does anyone remember that link or site?
Newly Minted Deal:
2800 Cash
S60 2008 2.5Turbo AWD
Blue (the light blue); Tan Interior
Premium Package
Lease 400 per month
Buy out 17550 after 36 month Lease
We looked, drove and priced pre-owned S60s, both 04 (23K miles for 23K) and an 05 and decided that the deal listed above was the best value. The dealer said we could only choose between the light blue (tan interior) or the maple (black interior). We chose the light blue (tan interior with grey and brown trim). I think it is a standard type of color and trim not sure.
We signed this evening (Saturday night). My question is, "Did we secure a fair if not a better than fair deal?" My only concern after the fact is whether or not we could have leased a dark blue with black interior for same lease price (from another dealership).
Thoughts?
