Costco first no exceptions.
Costco had build prices at the website, but dealer adds Tax Title License.
Leased to get extra cash but will convert to purchase.
This is for real go to costco then go to the dealer they refer you too.
Ours: Ken Garff Volvo South Town Mitch Cameron
He's located in Draper Utah
500 cash card comes from costco after you complete purchase and then fill out survey.
Good luck everybody!
NOTHING in the car biz is a freebie.
If you are buying you get the A plan price, plus the cost of the DVD palyer minus the $3100 DVD incentive, minus the $1000 Costco incentive.
Costco mails you the $500 card.
The $400 APR bonus is available if you finance thru VFNA.
However, VFNA's rates are about 2 points above a good banks, so that $400 doesn't do you a whole lot of good.
With The Costco plan, I understand the invoice pricing, the $3K dealer cash back, the $1K Costco cash back, and the $500 survey rebate card.
Are you also saying that we can either get the DVD option (dealer installed I believe), or the invoice value for it, as a further discount on the deal???
This would be great news, indeed. I spoke with the Costco (really Affinity Auto Program) rep yesterday, and plan on sitting down with the dealer this evening. The rep wasn't sure about the DVD incentive, especially with a 5 seat XC90.
Can you confirm, one way or the other? Thanks, in advance.
You will be charged the cost of installing the DVD system, which cost the dealer @ $1800 to install.
The regular incentive on an XC90 is $2500
the DVD incentive is $3100.
So, the DVD costs you @ $1800 minus the $3100.
The $1000 Costco incentive is deducted either way.
If you buy a 5 seat XC90, your price is invoice minus $2500 minus $1000
If you buy a 5 seat XC90 w/ a dealer installed DVD, your price is invoice,plus the cost of the dvd install minus $3100 minus $1000
That's basically exactly what my dealer told me several hours ago.
Invoice, less $2,500 from Volvo; less $1,000 from Costco; less a $500 gift card from Costco for answering a survey; plus only $600 to have the dealer install the DVD entertainment system.
Still much better than X-Plan pricing. Thanks everyone, including Edmunds!
So, getting it for $39,961 is a very good deal.
Since you are essentially invoice minus the incentive I'd be frustrated with you too.
basically what i did was that i did extensive research on my own and with the help of edmunds.com. i had about 3 different dealerships get me quotes for exactly what i wanted -- nothing more, nothing less.
this migh help you -- and then compare the 3 -- see what each will do -- if they will match the 'lowest' offer, etc.
this is what i did -- and this is the first time that i have ever bought a car on my own.
to make a long story short -- i'm not sure what what the versatility package runs you, or if you have the 3rd row of seats --
the 3rd row alone adds about 2K to the car.
i bought:
XC90 - 5 passenger
black / beige leather interior
sirius satelite radio
premium package
wood steering wheel..
i ended up paying 35,900 (+ TTL -- which the total came out to about 38,500 i believe. they also gave me 4K for my trade -in -- only because i had gotten this quote from another dealership -- they only were going to give me 2,500)
i think the trick it to just compare among several dealerships offering the same product - there are deals to be made.
for example -- my local volvo dealership wanted to sell me the car for $8K more! i'm talking the identical vehicle that i bought at another dealership!
hope this helps..:)
Maybe volvo r bought a service loaner,which has additiional money on it.
Maybe he did a 4 yr lease,which has different money on it.
If you are delaing w/ the same dealership, then the numbers are gonna be the same.
Location doesn't matter.
Good Luck.

Also, I am considering getting this without Nav, what is the feedback regarding the Nav system.
Thank you,

BTW, both Costco and my dealer say the Volvo to dealer cash back on a purchase is $3,100. If it's a new 2007, the Volvo to dealer cash back is $4,000.
Thanks volvo_r, for all your information, which has been spot on.
Remember guys, the dealer does't have to give you any of the Volvo to dealer incentive, unless you are in the Costco Plan or the Ford X-Plan. Oh, and salesman sometimes aren't well informed, and some of them will fib.
There is a bigger incentive for doing a bank lease.
It appears that the bank lease money works with the DVD money.
However, most leasing co's have penalty clauses built in if you terminate the lease early.
So, you may end up giving back alot of that intial savings.
I have a 2005 xc90 t6awd- 48000miles- my plan is to sell it or dealer trade for a new xc90 under the costco plan-
I am going to do a 24month single payment lease-
what is the best way to do this- what price should the car be capped at?
I spoke to Costco and my local dealer and they both stated the Dual DVD system is FREE this month as a promo. Im not sure if the installation is free though. I was also told that on top of the 1000 and 500 from costco, the 3000 marketing support is being pushed by costco onto the dealer to honor the full amount to all costco customers.
I also have 875 cash rebate on volvos from their safari game from this past spring/summer.
So to me - walking away with a 2008 with the same packages i had plus a dvd system for the same cost per month is a no brainer.
On my 2006, i only paid TTL which was 3k. This time around, I may be able to roll the cost into the payment and walk away with zero down.
Id be interested to know what the lease payment would be on a 36K sales price - 24 months with 15k miles on 2008s.
If you elect to get the Rear ent package, they give you the following deal:
- A plan pricing plus 1600 bucks
- Minus 3100 cash from volvo
- Minus 1000 cash from costco
- 500 dollar costco card
If you elect to not get the rear ent package, your deal is:
- A plan pricing
- Minus 2500 cash from volvo
- Minus 1000 cash from costco
- 500 dollar costco card
The second deal is 1000 bucks cheaper - so analyze that over the life of your payments.
Dude, that was totally uncalled for.
Well, the person you spoke to was exactly correct, so what's your issue?
My wording came out wrong previously - my apologies. I was trying to state that what i posted previously was from a bad source.
My fault on mixing the communications.
Sorry for the confusion.
how did things pan out for you with the Costco deal? where you able to use your brother's info?
xc90 6cyl, AWD, Prem, Vers, Climate and RES w/ standard paint
$39.5K + $500 gift card.
That is with all the discounts and incentives. Although others claim to have gotten free DVD, costco and the dealer say it is not possible with the discount. My main concern is $500 extra which the dealer claims is Volvo advertising fee. When I calculate invoice - $1000 -$3000 I get $39k. Does anyone think this is legit and are others being charged that fee? I am in northern va. Thanks.
My dealer did quote 895 for acq fee which i felt was high.
I am on the market of XC90, and the best offer I got from the dealer so far is:
XC90 3.20 A ASR 7PASS AUTOMATIC
Climate, Premium, Versatality Packages
MSRP $44,725.00
SELLING PRICE $37,650.48
Taxes $1887.52
Tag, Title & Reg. $362.00
Total OTD $39,900.00
Is this a good deal? Any suggestion is highly appreciated.
One more question, he did not mention the freight fee in the quote. Does OTD price include that fee?
Thanks much!
If the charge is on the invoice,its legit.
the ad charge for the Southwest market is $250, and its printed on the invoice.
Costco is aware of these charges. The reason it doesn't appear on their car configurator is that the charge varies from region to region.
I understand the incentive for the dealer to get rid of what they currently have. But we tend to keep our cars for as long as they run so we don't want to compromise on the features and color if we have to deal with it for the next few years.
So my question is, how hard it is to get the dealer to say "ok, we don't have what you want, let's try to find it at others or order it." ? How much impact will that have on the price?
Thanks.
Do a search for the Volvo dealers within, say 100 miles depending on your locale, and fax them all the exact specs you want. After some bluster, my local dealer found out I was serious, and magically became all too willing to do a special order.
Someone will order it for you, and you need a firm order on record by December 31st to qualify for the fixed price Costco Program.
Good luck!
You either have to take what is in stock, or order a car.
The Costco incentive will work on an ordered car.
??????
To quote the program "You can order your XC90 from your neighborhood Volvo dealership and enjoy a custom savings package created for members who want to stay closer to home".
My ordered XC90 is scheduled to arrive the second week of January, and I got the Costco deal. Many dealerships don't understand the Costco program, and try very hard to discourage special orders.
Caveat emptor.
MSRP: 47,525
Cap Cost: 39,188
Residual: 63%
MF: .0010
Sales tax: 6.25%
24-month lease
I was quoted $585 as the monthly payment with $767 down (1st month payment plus fees). I was told that this MSRP included the Rear Entertainment System but they would be "giving that money back on the end side" since it is part of the promotion this month. I don't know where that money is coming back because everything listed here is what I was quoted---no refund at signing or anything else mentioned about the entertainment system "refund."
I was also told that the Costco program is costing this dealer losses of over $2000 on these cars, etc. The ranting against Costco rubbed me wrong and along with other red flags, I opted to "think it over."
Using calculators online, I am coming up---using these figures---that the monthly payment should be closer to $500. When I originally mentioned this to the salesman, I was told that he didn't know why their figures are higher but that it is a "great deal that you shouldn't pass up."
I am waiting for my Costco rep to call me back to discuss other possible dealers in the area. Meanwhile, any help will be appreciated. I would like to know if the monthly payment quoted adds up.

# months for the West Coast, closer to 2 months for the East.
Personally, I would throw you out of the building for that remark.
Costco is auditing these deals very closely,your dealer may not be aware of that.
The car must be sold on the A plan program, so no rate or price bumps are allowed.
One of the frustrations is that I get quotes on sticky notes and verbal assurance of what's included. They want me to "pick the car" before they "might" let me see the breakdown.
After the deal is done we have to send them the invoice, buyers order, lease agreement if it is a lease and lease numbers screen.
All numbers must be at A plan.
If they don't like what they see,they can forgo giving us the $1000 Costco incentive.
a month. Paid destination charge as a cap reduction. total to dealer when picking up is 2,000 which includes; destination charge, first month payment, license fee, etc.
You can get any costco deal delivered after the 1st of the year BUT they cannot lock in money factor.. Mine is 0.000360

To be fair, the quotes I got seemed ok for what were installed. Thing is, the wife also wants some accessories (park assist CAMERA, bluetooth and mats). Are they part of the A Plan Costco deal or separate? I have feeling that they are separate (hence might get killed on price) but Costco rep told me I should get a discount.
Also FWIW, we are looking to purchase.
