I have always owned a Volvo and when the C70 made it debut, I traded in a S70 for it. I purchased it in March 1999 and have had few (barely any) problems with it. One minor issue was resolved with the suspension after a visit to the dealership. The car handles great, has more than enough power and gets plenty of stares from other drivers. I have definitely enjoyed owning this one.
A fun car to own and drive

I am the second owner; bought it when it was about 1 1/2 years old. Any problems I've encountered have been minor and taken care of by the dealer under warranty. The car is a blast to drive and you can actually carry passengers in the back seat.
Love love love this car

The timeless design is simply gorgeous yet it's subtle, elegant. Apparently featured in some Saint movie that I didn't watch. Super comfy chairs & very soft suspension took some getting used to (can't feel the rd, imo) but then... It's like riding on a cloud! Overall, an enjoyable drive. The best part: I've the optional sound system w/ like 400 something watts. I've yet to encounter another stock sound that's even close! Amazing bass that u can actually hear. Overall very full but clean sound... An audiophile's dream come true. So, I practically drove this to the ground. 2 major accidents. Yet my only problem (& I hear it's common), is that the dash got loose so when I hit bumps, the bottom of windshield smacks the dash. I stuffed it w/ a bunch of foam, seems to help some. But that's the only problem.... This is a solid car! & Could've, would've continued driving if it weren't for my alcoholic loser ex losing it. 😫 Oh my 1 other complaint is the power seating is SOOOO slow. Other pros tho: elegant interior feels spacious considering the car size; lux features r std... i.e. heated front seats (butt warmer), daytime running lights was cutting edge for that time, fog lights that's both highly functional & good looking; surprisingly roomy back seats & trunk; also appreciate the golf club hole in the trunk (the time when I locked my keys in the trunk, that was a lifesaver.) Last... Extremely rare! I loved that unlike my current car that I c everywhere, I spot a C70 like once or 2x a yr. Yep... I desperately tried to but was unable to replace this.

this is one awesome car, it is very fast and safe, very fun to drive to. Just needs rear wheel drive, to increase safety.
Don't waste your money!

I married into this car. Wife explained she liked the style, the seats are very comfortable, and she got a good deal on it. I agree with her, however, this car has been to the shop way too much. Things like, light switch, power seats, strut mounts, sunvisors, abs system, oil leak. I can't even list them all. Allow me to sum it up: I think Volvo engineered a good car but assembled it with lousy parts.
