Comfortable, stylish, has the wow factor when you put the top down
Least favorite feature:
18' Mirzam rims crack and go oval under normal driving conditions.
Advice to buyer:
Don't buy it with the 18' mirzam rims. You will have to replace them at your own expense.
Detailed review:
Would not buy the 2006 C70 again. I have had all 4 18' Mirzam rims go out of round and 2 crack under normal driving conditions. In the course of more research I have found other 2006 C70 owners who have had to replace all 4 18' Mirzam rims twice. It's a pretty car and it handles well but unless you've got money to burn to replace rims and tires under normal driving consditions it isn't worth it or the hassle. So much for safety. They are not covered under warranty. It isn't a pleasure to drive since I have to try and avoid every little crack, dip and bump in the road everytime I drive the car.
