Should I sell my 2007 XC90 for $2,600?

A mid-size luxury crossover SUV, the Volvo XC90 made its debut in 2002 at the Detroit Motor Show. Recognized for its safety, practicality, and comfort, the XC90 is a popular vehicle around the world. The XC90 proved to be very popular, and very good for Volvo's sales numbers, since its introduction in model year 2003 (North America). P2 platform.

It's such a weird year for buying and selling I wouldn't make any conclusions trying to find price points in this climate

Trying to sell fast in this Climate will mean taking a beating on price.

$4500 will separate and cull the people trying to buy your car on the cheap. Lots of clear, well lit pictures showing off how clean it is will attract fish and repel squids

Offer up and Facebook market place are the bottom feeders of the market, so you won’t find people looking for good runners shopping there. It’s easy to think it’s simple to reach a target market because of technology and apps but in facts it’s harder

Damn, I charge people $650 an hour to tell companies that using bigger words , don’t tell anyone please.



..don’t forget to put an ad here in Classifieds!

List out what you refurbed , good pics of exterior, interior , and under hood.

I agree with you 100%. I currently have it posted on cars.com as well. I hate that most of these sites limit how many photos one can post. I agree with you regarding the “bottom feeders” on mainstream social media platforms. Thank you for your advice. I was driving my Volvo around today and I was thinking how much I love this car and Volvo engines are million mile engines. I don’t think I will sell it for anything less than $4,500. I have put so much money into this car—if it comes down to it—I will just keep it and give to my sister when she visits me so she has a car to drive around.

Be careful, that’s how you end up with 11 Volvos in your driveway.

Okay but seriously can we talk about being addicted to Volvo cars? I mean is it a true phenomenon? Because I have a Volvo addiction. LOL!

The thing that’s really hindering me from selling mine I think is the high mileage which is such a shame because the car is so-well-taken-care-of!
We are looking for another XC90 for my wife, her 2004 XC90 T6 with a fairly "New Transmission " replaced by Ramsey Volvo, new Sachs struts, new front end, new brakes, new tires, new water pump, new T stat w/brass t pipe fitting for Tstat housing, ect....was totalled. Only had 130k on the odometer. I would give you 3k for it considering the maintenance and repairs you have put into to her. I'm guessing you have the 4.4liter Yamaha engine with the 6speed A/T. I'm in New York.
