"Owner opinion"
Pros: Head turner, comfortable cruiser, good road milage
Cons: ergonomic mismatches
Summary: I believe that I can address this car as I have now owned one for 9 months and have more than 16000 miles. It's a fun drive, but as noted it's not a barnburner. Highway milage is near 30 mpg at true highway speeds, closer to 22 in town. The car is truely comfortable on the road and just a pleasure to drive.
It's easy to note that there are several hard top convertibles out there that are less expensive, but then they aren't a Volvo. Compare any similar model and the Volvo would probably be a bit more expensive. The fit and finish is excellent.
I would not want to compare to other cars since I don't have any direct experience. Is the C70 perfect, of course not, but then every car is a compromise of one sort or another. Each person makes their own decision based on personal likes, dislikes and of course the price.
But the most fun of all is when you raise or lower the top in public, people stop and stare, then they nod their approval.
