Volvo C70 first two thousand miles - 2007 Volvo C70
By tim2it - November 23 - 6:40 pmGot one of those 6000 imported C70 2007 babies, and Im really enjoying it. It is Magic Blue Pearl with white interior. Best, most intuitive interior I have ever owned. I think it is called ergonomics. I also get people stopping me all the time to admire the car. Auto trans is a lagger at the light, but acceptable for people who dont care to shift. There is a pull to the right during accelerated lane changes at higher speeds, but again, it is OK if you know it is part of the turbo right twist phenom. I took it to Yosemite and over 9,000 feet mountain passes and the car was fantastic. Overall, it is a great ride, and a nice, safe drive. Lets hope I can get parts as it ages.

First ever Volvo - 2007 Volvo C70
By Carolyn - November 24 - 8:26 amI have never had a volvo. I had a mercedes and this compares to my mercedes, only with a convertible. I have had no problems with the car at all and she is so much fun to drive, I get compliments just about ever where I go! I will have another one and wonder why I waited so long!

Grand wedding over, marriage begins - 2007 Volvo C70
By Paulvo - July 16 - 10:43 amI thought I was getting a sporty, luxurious convertible; after 2500 miles, its just a reliable Swedish 4- seater hardtop convertible; Sporty- car is too heavy & the suspension is like my old mans 92 Buick Park Avenue; acceleration- good; cornering not tight; steering- too loose; also, it looks sporty for a Volvo, but come on, consider your baseline; Luxury- nice overall amenities, but theres room for improvement (see comments below; also, no sunglass case, for $48K?!); Convertible- definitely an attractive European hardtop convertible with a unique 4 seater feature (it wont be for long BMWs version launches in 07); no buyers remorse (yet), but Im not sure I would repeat my choice

Volvo C70 - 2007 Volvo C70
By GB - May 11 - 1:56 amI have only had the vehicle for 7 weeks however I am very satisfied with the performance of the vehicle. The only downside thus far is the gas mileage. I have only been getting about 18 MPG in the city.

Most mileage is to the dealer - 2007 Volvo C70
By momsfirst - April 23 - 2:26 pmLove to drive my C70, unfortunately, the majority of it seems to be the 50 miles one way to the dealer for the Check Engine light repair. Six times in 7 weeks, less than 5,000 miles on the car. Have a 16 hour road trip in two weeks, wish I had a right arm rest. The center console is positioned for a height of about 6, not my 56"

06 Black on Black C70 - 2007 Volvo C70
By doubletap - July 16 - 7:53 amIts my wifes car, but I get to play with it on weekends. Wow what a car, for the price we paid its worth it. We have a 97 Maxima which has great acceleration, but the C70 takes off like a bat out of hell. The feel is great, have to watch from ending up in someones rearend. The car surprises you as you press on the gas. The car seems to be therapeutic, just get in the car and start driving, and you feel the problems just get left behind. The car is so enjoyable to drive.
