I was down to the wire at 5pm on the 31st and felt like I had to pull the trigger while the programs were still available (even though I was worried I may have left a little meat on the bone)… but, if it’s blessed by @vhooloo, then I certainly feel good about it!
Right, great deal. So this deal at 0.72% ($390/mo with tax on a $54K car) is a “deal of the moment!!!”, but S90 at 0.73% ($439/mo with tax on a $60K car) is “No need to jump on it”? I guess only because S90 deal did not fit under $400/mo like you predicted it would LOL
I play hard ball . that 0.01% is the difference between deal of the moment and don’t jump on it
Yes I am biased towards round numbers and those where the leading digit is 1 less than what others are getting
I drove the S90. It’s certainly a nice car, and potentially even more “luxurious” and featured on the inside than the XF. But at that price, you are getting a FWD S90. I just can’t take serious, or spend $400/mo, on any luxury car that is FWD with 250hp. Especially when you can get a RWD with 340hp for the same price.
Unless he takes public transit. I drive 9 minutes to a park and ride and take a bus or train to work in NYC. So miles may not be a whole indicator. I drive less than 5 k miles a year if my wife didn’t take my car on Saturdays and errands on Sundays and at night. When I look to lease a car for myself next December, I’m going to be looking for 7500 miles or less as long as I stay at my current job.
Again - you got a great deal. But I was comparing a $60k Volvo to a $54k Jag and both have comparable payments of .72-.73% of MSRP. Plus Volvo is AWD 316HP vs RWD 340HP Jag.
Sure, I’ll agree with that. If you were to compare just %'s to %'s, and actual monthly payments weren’t a factor, I would probably have chosen a .73% $60k AWD Volvo over a .72% $54k RWD Jaguar. But that extra $50/mo pays for my kids diapers, and I still get to drive a Jag.
Absolutely. When you talk about $$ payments then $50/mo is a lot. And if your budget is under $400, then your deal is a no brainer. But I was making a point for @vhooloo’s post in a Volvo thread where he wasn’t as excited even though the deals are similar in terms of % of MSRP.
