This is a great running car. Not much room in the back seats when the front seats are pushed all the way back. Seats are some of the most comfortable ever. No complaints. Look forward to spring when ew can drive with the top down. Above all, it has the feel of a "safe" car. 02/11/17 Still a great car. Had to have rod extenders put on the back exile because back tires wear unevenly. Should remedy that issue. Expensive to maintain but then it's a volvo.

After one month, this is my favorite Volvo in initial quality and design. I have owned a 850 GLT and currently own an S80. The C70 is quieter at interstate speeds than my S80 and my wife and I feel like we are in a snug, safe, comfortable cocoon when driving. It's just plain fun to drive and we also like the head-turning effect.

Headliner dropped

I just got my 2011 c70 t5 I also have an 2006. I'm a convertible fan,I'm hoping the 2011 keeps well as far as staying dependable. I noticed most reviews people went to the dealership. I've always taken my 06 to a master MECHANIC that specializes in foreign cars like Volvo,BMW,and Mercedes. He has kept the car on the road and for nowhere near the price of the dealership's. The 11 top headliner has fallen and it's my fault the previous owner had it garage kept,but it's now in this Ga heat with the windows up so that an easy fix thanks to YouTube. I'm not ready to throw in the towel on Volvo just yet.

Unbelievable issue with 2011 c70 with 6,000 origin

I bought the C70 new in 2011. It has always been garage kept.I have another vehicle I use during the winter and any kind of bad weather.I recently had my annual inspection done at my Volvo dealer,Stillman of West Chester PA. Usually the only service that's usually done at the inspection is an oil change because of the low mileage. This time I was told I had rust under the car that make my ASC/Anti-skid system in-operable keeping in mind the car has 6,081 original miles. The cost to fix this issue is over $ 700.00. How in God's name is it possible a garage kept car with 6,0811 miles can possible develop a rust issue. I wrote to Volvo and their response was simply "your car is no longer under warranty. So much for Volvo customer care after the sale.
