Overview & Reviews

Volvo will offer the C70 Coupe in just one trim level, and the contents of last year's SE model will come with it, including the unique sport grille, 17-inch wheels and tires, power sunroof, leather upholstery, trip computer, auto-dimming rearview mirror and special dash inlays. New standard features for all C70s include Volvo's stability and traction control system (STC), heated front seats and an emergency trunk release. Convertibles also get 17-spoke alloy wheels and ride on Z-rated 205/55R16 Pirelli tires. Genuine wood dash trim replaces the "wood effect" trim in the optional Touring Package for the C70 LPT convertible. Ash Gold is now an exterior color choice, while Turquoise Metallic and Venetian Red Metallic have been discontinued.

• Luxurious interior, plenty of safety and comfort features, smooth ride, turbocharged engines.

  C70 Convertible -- great car, great fun - 2002 Volvo C70
  By gfl - May 27 - 2:00 am

  Although not the ideal car for carrying stuff around town -- the C70 convertible is great at what it was designed for -- touring around in style. This car rides great top up or down and has more than enough performance to get yourself into trouble easily. In its class, this is the only usable 4 seat convertible out there - the Saab and MB have less room in back (and front)

  Whod a thought a Volvo - 2002 Volvo C70
  By Raymond Wylie - January 9 - 10:00 am

  I told my wife to look for her dream convertible, thinking she would go for a BMW. I was out of town and she called and said she found a beautiful white C70. This is the most beautiful car, in my opinion, on the market. I cant say enough about the comfort, handling, power and top down fun. Just a few bugs. Battery went completely dead while in the garage after a few months. The radio/CD failed and had to be replaced. The tires are low profile- high performance and tend to start cupping. Rotate often and have an alignment performed often. Service is first class. Never had a problem.

  Love this ride! - 2002 Volvo C70
  By ckckC70 - October 21 - 2:00 am

  Its just a joy to drive. Incredibly comfortable seats, great sound system, good controls. There is an irritating lag in acceleration from a stop, which Im told is typical of turbo engines.

  what a coupe !!!!!!!!!! - 2002 Volvo C70
  By dchase - January 12 - 10:00 am

  I just bought my C70 in January (about 4 months ago). I am an avid coupe driver, having owned BMW, Mercedes, and Jaguar, all in coupe variants. The C70 is a power house. 236 hp, awesome brakes, tight steering, and a killer sound system to boot! I traveled a little out of the way to get the car from Volvo of Fort Washington, one of the best dealerships I have ever experienced, and a very compassionate and fair sales person named Dory Chaefsky. This car is amazing, and definitely worth looking into !!!!!!!!

  My C. - 2002 Volvo C70
  By Jasta - January 12 - 2:00 am

  Very reliable, as Volvos are known for, but exceedingly pleasureable to drive when compared to other sport cars. My C is also very roomy, especially compared to the Jag I was thinking of buying. Lots of shoulder room and very comfortable. For the same price, one must squeeze themselves into a BMW or Benz of lesser beauty, performance, and comfort.

  Life Saver - 2002 Volvo C70
  By Byron - May 31 - 4:20 pm

  Engine was sound and performed exceptional, however she was put down in June of 2008. I my wife & two kids traveled the 405 south bound in the carpool lane. A diesel trucks tire traveling north bound became dislodged (rim included). Now airborne crossed several lanes headed for opposing traffic with exact aim at my windshield. Not being able to move left or right I pushed the accelerator praying the tire would miss the car. No luck! Striking the roof of the car and crashing into the cabin before bouncing off. Insurance company declared the car a total loss. My wife, two kids, and I walked away without a scratch. With superb safety/build qualities 4 souls were saved by Volvo

  Would buy again! - 2002 Volvo C70
  By Liz - March 6 - 11:23 pm

  Spacious, comfortable convertible. Best convertible to accommodate tall driver and has the most room in back seat for passengers vs others. Power top fabulous. Well placed controls. This car is in addition to my Corvette when we needed room for three. Sporty, yet functional. Reasonable gas economy. Good mechanically. Very reliable. Dealers supply loaner. Very fair pricing for a fun car! Only recommend HT convertible with the higher HP and would even like more power, of course!

  "La Negrita" - 2002 Volvo C70
  By Gilgamesh - May 14 - 2:00 am

  This is my second Volvo (the S40 2000 was my first) and I love this black beauty! I enjoy the tight handling and the superior excelation (a little turbo- lag would have prefered a super- charger). The looks and comments I get on her are amazing. Everytime I go into Manhattan and park her the attendants always ask how she drives and that it is the best looking coupe on the planet. Needless to say its a "chick-magnet" and thats a good thing! My sound system is the high end version and Ive added XM Satelite Radion to the mix!

  When my wife lets me drive her C70... - 2002 Volvo C70
  By rpgorman1@aol.com - April 14 - 10:00 am

  When my wife lets me drive her C70 it can be day when I ejoy driving again. This is a great car. When yuo hit the turbo hold on. My usual commuter car is a 2000 BMW 528i but in comparison the Bimmer is just taking the family car to work. The C70 is just plain fun to drive.
