  This Car Relaxes Me - 2009 Volvo C70
  By miabchdave - March 30 - 10:33 am

  This car will make you want to cruise, listen to good music, and enjoy the scenery. I find it very comfy. The trunk room and rear seats have no other competition in the hard top convertible space. The interior storage is definitely adequate. Those three main reasons are why I went with the C70 over the BMW 328i hardtop even though the lease on the BMW worked out to be $10 cheaper a month. Its simply a more usable car... its even rated to tow! The car does have some oddities that need to be addressed, though. See below.

  Beautiful Car Inside and Out - 2009 Volvo C70
  By Magic BlueOne - March 22 - 11:00 am

  First off, I enjoy just looking at my C70, it is a beautiful car. Its handling, breaking and acceleration are all capable, so for my intended purpose of top down cruising it is a pleasure. For the reality as a daily driven commuter work horse the Northeast its proved both comfortable and reliable, and the hard top is a necessity. Its a sedan when I need it, a convertible when I want it. Nice job Volvo.

  Way behind the Technology - 2009 Volvo C70
  By Steve - August 7 - 11:00 am

  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, wont 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, Im going to see if I can trade it if I can do it without losing too much money

  Professional Convertible - 2009 Volvo C70
  By PJ - November 5 - 9:43 am

  As a VW driver for years, I talked myself out of another VW when my last lease expired. I do like my C70 and find it stylish, but I miss the zip of my 4cylinder turbo charged VW Passat.I test drove an Eos in my search for a new car, and bowed out due to unsteady feeling of that car. In retrospect, Id have given this purchase more thought....

  c 70 weak frame and roof - 2009 Volvo C70

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

  Head Turning Convertible - 2009 Volvo C70
  By Gilbert Rivera - March 10 - 12:20 pm

  As a life-long Honda lover this is my first Volvo. The fit and quality sold me on the vehicle. Love the top fold- down, and the trunk space for a convertible. Best feature: DynAudio stereo, great sound and bass. The car turns heads with the top is down. Got 24K miles on the car and no problems. Two gripes: 1. Pirelli tires a (18 in. wheels) dont last beyond 30K miles (cost $300 a pop). 2. Navigation system stinks. An address has to be manually entered. No voice activated features (like my Honda). For a premium brand this is a surprise.
