2018 Volvo S90 — cheap project has enough margin to fix and resell?

Walk if they won't put it on a buyer’s order. I would not wire money until I've seen the 2018 Volvo S90 and the title situation in person or via a trusted PPI. Then the comparison gets honest. This is from a 2018 Volvo S90 in Nationwide with 144,500 miles. Run the total, not the monthly, before you commit. Doc fee is the line I'm watching.

Compare apples to apples or you'll get spun. Ask for out-the-door on the 2018 Volvo S90 with fees, add-ons, and rate on separate lines. Do that before you talk monthly again. Verbal 'we'll take care of it' is not a plan. PPI guy I use is booked until next week, so I'm waiting.

I'd want competing paper, not competing stories. GAP, paint, and nitrogen are optional until you run the 2018 Volvo S90 numbers without them. If they balk, that's your answer. If you share a photo of the worksheet, easier to sanity-check. I'll post OTD once I have two apples-to-apples sheets.

Had a similar mess a couple years ago and that's what finally sorted it. Make the next action something you can finish this week. Not wiring anything in the meantime.

Hard-won lesson from my last deal: Call your insurer in Nationwide before you fall in love with the 2018 Volvo S90. Do that before you talk monthly again. On “cheap project has enough margin to fix,” that was the fork that mattered for me. Verbal 'we'll take care of it' is not a plan. I screenshotted the quote for later.

Update from me: I finally have sale price, fees, and trade on separate lines for the 2018 Volvo S90. Sleeping on the number either way.
