It is a sweet deal. Go to local Volvo dealer. Order Car. Tell them you want to pick it up at ANY of the european locations (my boss chose the factory in Sweden). Immediate 7% discount on price of car. Vovlo pays round trip airfare to European pick up location of your choice. Pluse 3 nights hotel (4 star) tour of factory if you opt for Sweden. The will help you plan a driving tour fo the area for as long as you wish. Drop car off at any european location when done. Volvo pays to ship the care to your local dealer. It shows up in 3 weeks.
Ta Da.
BMW does something similar. The Rev. Lawgrad keeps talking about getting a BMW in that fashion. It sounds fun, as does the Volvo deal.
That sounds like fun. I think I'll buy a Volvo next time.
I bought my Beemer over the internet. They didn't tell me about any trip to Germany. All I got was a trip to Kinston.

It's a good morning. The OP is happy. He made it through his MRI without going burzerk! (Claustrophobia big time!)
