The looks are great, inside and out. Ride is comfortable, especially the highway driving I do. Handling is a little mushy. The car is quiet as a hardtop, top up, not bad, top down. Seats are incredibly comfortable and definitely recommend the sovereign leather. Technology is embarrassing. The Navigation is like a built is Garmin. The phone is HORRID; very few phones are compatible, and any time I have tried to upgrade phone software, won't sync to the phone book. The other problems are the gas pedal is 1-2 inches lower than the brake pedal, which is awkward, and the Climate Control is weak. After 6 months, I'm going to see if I can trade it if I can do it without losing too much money

While not up to the performance of a BMW, this car is smooth as silk. Acceleration and handling in normal driving are very good. The hardtop works amazingly well. It is quiet with the top down. You can actually listen to music with the top down at 70 MPH or have a conversation. The seats are supportive and comfortable even for my husband at 6'2" and 230LBS. The car looks great with the top up and fantastic with the top down. No fooling around with a cloth top or boot. Sound system is quite good and I just have the standard one. I can listen to music with top down just fine. This is not a car for a sports car enthusiast, but for me going to the golf course and work it is just great.

A newer old car

From my 04 c70 to my 09 c70 it's day and night not just from soft top to hard but an entirely different animal. Interior seems more stylish. The old one had more bells and whistles but the hard top was the draw. I have put a brand new top on my 04. But a sagging headliner on the 09 did not deter me from a trade. a 1 hour fix, its perfect now. A few scratches a dent or two does not take away from the stellar styling. I never seem to be alone as the car seems to garner attention wherever I go. Smooth, heavy, stylish, comfortable, reliable, safe are the words it inspires. It seems to outweigh the 04 but it's leaps and bounds more stylish. 108k miles I stole the car at the price I got it for. (saggy Headliners scare people off thankfully) a toy for sunny days it must compete with my cruiser and my 2018 mb glc300 if the sun is shining it wins almost every time. It's a nice sunny day cruiser. I've been after it for years. I was proud of my benz, but in my drop top c70 I've finally arrived.

Good experience driving top down but not when the top is up. It generates too much rattles from plastic panel door and roof
bravo, Volvo

Purchased my black C70 in August. My initial impressions are great. I wasn't expecting Vette performance, so acceleration/ handling are adequate. No shudders/creeks in the body top up or down. Exterior design is beautiful- by far the most attractive Volvo. Interior also designed well-- drivers seat is comfortable and very adjustable. Chose standard sound system and I am pleasantly suprised by the acoustics. Both the iPod and Bluetooth interface are awesome. Some of the interior bits and surfaces could be of a higher quality (dash, wheel, door trim). The key is cumbersome, and I wish I'd opted for keyless with this car. Overall, I love the versatility and design.
