My Take: Sadly, last month’s Volvo numbers remain for the month of November. Not even Costco Auto’s promotion can save it from being a great deal, unless you decide to buy. Buying isn’t a bad thing, but I also know that you didn’t scour the internet to end up in a leasing website and have it’s owner tell you to buy. I’m just telling it like it is though. When lease rates stink and you won’t settle for anything else, you have to see what kind of deal you can get on a purchase instead. Not all is lost though, the S80 isn’t too bad of a deal and could qualify for a “Lease-to-Buy” if the sale price is right. Then you can add on the $500 Costco card for extra savings.
This month’s Volvo numbers are courtesy of North Point Volvo. If you are in or near the Alpharetta, GA area and looking for a Volvo, please give them a call.

Does money factor vary by state? Assuming the same applicant, meaning the same credit tier.
Charles, I believe Volvo’s numbers are nationwide and it does require top tier credit. It isn’t unusual to have dealers pad the MF to make profit, but most of the time you can talk them down.
