I live in Lawton, OK and looking to buy in OKC and dealer is asking sticker price and no less.
Plus it has a Turbocharged AND supercharged 4 cyl engine which I'm a little nervous about.
Just curious on anyone's buying and driving experience of this car. My new wife and I were impressed by the test drive and quality.

Just bought one for the wife (no pics). It's a great ride (the car, & yes, the wife too - again, no pics). I tried putting two dealers against each other w/no success. Thru wouldn't come down at all. The sales person tells me AFTER I buy it that they've had people pay more than sticker price b/c supply is low.

My sister has one and loves it. I drove it to Florida once and really enjoyed it.

Not sure about the new ones but previous models were pieces of crap. They had a lot of mechanical issues, were expensive to work on and the resale value was not good.

The new body style is very nice inside and out... We are looking at them, m class Mercedes, and Yukon

I appreciate the info. Looks like they are charging sticker in OKC. Looks like my new wife (no pics either) will be going in against another potential buyer on the one we want. We are willing to walk away. We are considering the Lexus RX, BMW X5 and the mercedes GLE. The volvo has all beat even at the sticker price...it's an impressive vehicle. I kinda like the Acura MDX but I can't get her to buy into that.

We like the Tahoe/Yukon as well. I can't believe how expensive they've gotten.

Lexus has never let me down. Don't buy a BMW(BMTroubleyou), Mercedes or Volvo if you plan on keeping it past the warranty period.

A friend of mine had one and said the same thing. He said it was worst can he ever owned and would never buy another Volvo as long as he lived.

My wife test drove one yesterday and fell in love with it. However after a good bit of Internet research she is skeptical that it is a completely new makeover and that it will end up having all the issues that come along with that.
I would be interested to see what some folks who have the 16 model say about it

They have been on back order so you're not going to get anything off the sticker

I've had a Volvo for years. I'm on my second Volvo. I've never had an issue with them. I've only done scheduled maintenance. The new engines are indeed interesting. It's all the EPA regulations while trying to maintain horsepower. I've got the 5cyl turbo. I think it's got 265 HP. what's the 4cyl have?

Acura has so much potential but their designs are blah.

What's (hp) the 4 cylinder have?

XC90 is the only Volvo that I've heard to stay away from.
They've recently redesigned them and the new models are very hot sellers. Hopefully they are less problematic than their predecessor.

I just picked up an xc60 and during my research learned a bit about the xc90.
2016 xc90 is all new and apparently a massive success. Car and driver suv of the year, #1 luxury suv on us news rankings, and car of the year on some lesser known sites. I looked at an xc90 R-type and it's a beautiful car inside and out.
I ended up with an xc60 because I wanted a smaller suv and I got a ridiculous lease on a dealer lender car.
