Pros

Great Car! Very fun to drive. Love the fast response and control.

Cons

Not good with newborn.  Fits four but not so confy on back seats and most definitely not a carseat for baby.

C70 Volvo — The car has been one of the best I have owned (G35; MB Kompressor; BMW 3 series). Loved the fast response, MPG, fun convertible, the look and the control of the car. Unfortunately I just had a baby and does not fit my lifestyle any longer.

Do Not Regret My Decision — Extreemly confortable; very easy to operate the convertible hard top; super sound system, great great handling around the curves, I feel secure inside my C-70.... It has a great built quality..no doubt about it accomp[anied by a great market re-sell value with Volvo's reputation...Perhaps need more acceleration power extremly fun to have...I love it

2009 Volvo C70 T5 — This is the best hard top convertible on the market for the price! This car has no flaws! The car turns on a dime and performs beautifully on the open road! This car has a 12 speaker concert hall sound system that rocks all the way! This car is off the charts fun to drive!!

Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.)

Volvo C70--a Ton Of Fun To Drive — My 2009 C70 is a well built and enjoyable car to drive. Heads turn when people see the jigsaw like roof retract into the trunk. The 5 cylinder engine provides very good but not overwhelming acceleration, but other compensations abound like a spacious trunk area for a convertible, dynamic radio and speaker system, nimble handling, and seating for four. Having priced BMWs, Saabs, and various Audi models, I'd have to say this is the best value for the money. Volvos are known for their safety and this C70 is solidly built.

Primary Use: Family transportation
