2008 Volvo C70 (continued)
|
|
|
Summary
The Volvo C70 is gorgeous. It's fun and convenient, and its safety is unbeatable. The engine, transmission and suspension are proven to be smooth and reliable, and deliver even better performance for 2008. The price for this four-seat hardtop convertible is a bargain.
