The T5 was a HUGE price increase and I can't justify spending more on a monthly car payment then my 3 year old townhouse.....
We needed something rather ASAP..... this will be perfect.
Anyway, finalized most of the details this morning. I guess I am selling my car privately (almost 99.9% sure, just awaiting a phone call before noon here and will have the bank draft in hand during lunch).
Yeah the EVOLVE Volvo is HUGE bucks, it ain't cheap and we're not 'rich' although we're very financially solid. Personally I'd rather go to Mexico twice a year and have the 2.4 instead of going once a year to Mexico, etc. We love our holidaying......
I'm happy, we know we've made the right choice. We've been looking into the Volvo for well over a year now and have also compared it to BMW, ACURA, INFINITY, etc and weighed in all the options, figures, etc. This one worked out perfectly for us for this time in our life.
There wasn't a T5 on the lot at the time, so we'd have been waiting for months and months for it to come in, also increasing the cost due to ordering or shipping from another area. For the T5 we compared it to, we're looking at over $13,000 difference just for 50 HP, sorry but that's a bit much......
Should have the new car tomorrow, got a used 2005 S40 for the time being which in itself is a gorgeous car.
