the seating is the most comfortable i have ever owned
Least favorite feature:
body shake/low front spoiler
Advice to buyer:
if you want to cruise in style look at the c70
Detailed review:
i wanted a convertible with style and the most room available. the c70 fills the bill completly. the other europeans; bmw, saab and vw are all smaller. the others of the same size, toyota and chrysler, do not have the style of the volvo. also i expect the new c70 to be much smaller, considering it is based on the 40/50 platform.
the only problem with the volvo is the body shake on anything other than glass smooth roads. the toyota and the chrysler were no better though.
the front seat comfort is the best of any auto i have owned.
the standard stereo is also very good with swe
dish dynaudio speakers.
this is the first 'premium' auto i have owned.
