Signed: Volvo V60 T8 Polestar $495/mo + tax. 1st mo, 10 MSD & $805 DAS, 36/10

There is no point asking who the dealer is because there are so few out there. 5% is solid - every dealer I spoke to was at MSRP.

Drive fast in good health.

You would be wrong! Sent you a PM.

That’s not how the calculator works.

I didn’t do zero drive-off so I couldn’t do it that way. By adding the fees to the sale and taking them out of the fees section it’s effectively gross cap before incentives. It tied out exactly to my Excel formulas and lease agreement. Maybe I got lucky?

It’ll add up correctly, sure, but it results in a calculator that misrepresents the deal; you end up getting something that says you got 2.5% pre-incentive, which is an invalid data point for others to compare.

Next time, put the fees where they’re supposed to be and adjusted the down payment amount to match the DAS amount. There’s a big write up in the calculator FAQ on how to do this. That keeps all the fee and discount information accurate for deal comparison. Remember that when posting a calculator link, it is as much a tool for calculating payments as it is a medium for communicating deal details.

Thanks for explaining. I updated the original post with the corrected calculator link.

Love the car, and the deal.

I’m curious about the healthcare worker discount. It looks like Volvo offers it through their “Affinity” program. Currently it says 5% off + $500 lease credit. Is that the program you used? Is that how you got the discount off the top? I’m a bit confused because I understand that program doesn’t allow negotiating.

No. It definitely wasn’t that. This isn’t replicable, healthcare, Costco, and availability are basically poofed.

Sorry ‘replicable without great effort or outstanding conditions’.

Does seem they’re not around. Even XC60s.

The best Volvo deals were in May and June, in regions where all incentives could be stacked (eg midwest). And if you had your heart set on a V60 T8, I see two left i the entire US (assuming you like white).

S60s are. At least one, with $7K matte paint :slight_smile:

How’s it drive compared to the normal S60? My local dealers don’t stock them :frowning:

No idea. Why even bother if I won’t get one?

Hope you like the car. These are nice looking cars in wagon.

Looking through the forums it seems most people leasing T8s are paying $700 at least. We’ve a few months left on our volvo and I want a T8 (even an S60) but can’t find any deals in my brief search.

No they’re not…look harder.

No, you look harder :wink:

He didn’t say he can’t find the cars, not the same as deals.

Here are some recent ones.

$671/mo but only 7500 miles

$655 including drive-off, 10k miles on an S90 well optioned. This one actually is not bad

$683 including drive-off

So I stand corrected. They are almost all $650+, not $700+.

Have you considered looking at broker listings of people suggesting you can do a lot better to see their prices that are a lot better?

Finally found ‘em. Looks like in January Volvo was giving away t8 s60’s. Everything resets for February but Based on what I can see not being a dealer Volvo hasn’t changed their incentives or Aplan for this month. I’ve got aplan, loyalty, state EV credit. :grinning:

So yes, there were some t8s for a good $200/mo less than my last post :lying_face:

I’m glad that is settled
