This Year's Model Updates:

Volvo introduces a high-pressure turbo (HPT) convertible and makes minor equipment changes to all C70s for 2000.

Pros:
  • Roomy inside, sexy outside, Volvo safe under the skin. Turbo provides enough power to satisfy.
Cons:
  • Poorly conceived easy-entry power feature for front seats. Tacked-on look of Dolby center-dash speaker.

  • Over 100,000 Miles - 2000 Volvo C70
    By -

    I bought this car used in 2002 with 24000 miles. At the end of 2004 I have 120,000 miles. The only problem I have had with this car is the the electronic throttle has gone bad twice. Other than that I still love this car. I dont really have any complaints other than the electronic throttle.

  • I love this car! - 2000 Volvo C70

    I bought this car because it is unique and is one of the most beautiful cars on the road. I have had no significant problems with it and the few minor ones (window switch, lamps) were fixed promptly by the dealer.

  • Awesome car - 2000 Volvo C70

    Never had a material issue with the car and I drive it hard. Awesome performance. Full feature set at $10,000 less than the expensive add-on approach of BMW or Mercedes.

    It was b/w Volvo and BMW. Many more BMWs than Volvos on the road and I now know why. More defects and recalls than any car ever owned. Dealer unable to fix problems - particularly the roof. Depreciates like a rock. At least mine was a lease. Dont be foolish - a worst buy choice.

  • Great car for 2 - 2000 Volvo C70
    By -

    Great car, big enough to put the kids in the back seat, but as any two door car a hassle to let them in and out of. VERY QUIET, no more noise than a sedan or coupe. With the top up, it feels like a coupe.

  • HOT & UNIQUE! - 2000 Volvo C70
    By -

    Tired of seeing yourself in every driveway and on every highway? Want a car thats luxurious and hot at the same time? Well, this is it!! Had the car for 3 years and its been GREAT! A much better value vs the CLK, which was $10k more at the time I bought the C70. Volvo blew it when they stopped making the coupe, but I guess that will make it even more unique and desirable in years to come!

  • Dont ever buy a volvo!!!! - 2000 Volvo C70
    By -

    The worst car I have ever bought! the door panels came off a week after I bought it, the door locks stopped working and I had to buy new ones and those still didnt fix the problem, the rear window caved in for a second time, every single light on the dash has indicated something wrong with the car, the transmission is giving out and now the check engine light is on and there is a rocking motion that wont go away. VERY hard to turn, almost like I am driving a bus, and the rocking motion is just like that of a yellow bus starting to move. When I go for a short distance on city streets it starts smoking. This car is so scary to drive and very frustrating. Never again will I ever buy a volvo.

  • C70, Love it - 2000 Volvo C70
    By -

    I had my doubts about this car when I was first looking, but I took the plunge and bought it and have love every moment of driving it. This is my first non-american car and I dont know if I will ever go back. I put on a huge number of miles every week and in the three months I have had this used car there has not been a single problem.

  • Another Happy Customer - 2000 Volvo C70
    By -

    I extremely pleased with my 2000 Volvo C70! It has been extremely reliable, and fun to drive. It still gets many compliments even though this model has been on the road now 4 years or so. I have approx 49,000 miles on the odometer and I am the only owner. It has been in the heat of the desert and in the snow with chains! I still have 50% wear left with my original brakes! Super comfortable on some of my long road trips also! Hope that helps........
