2012 Volvo C70 Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2013	2dr Hardtop conv. turbocharged 227hp 2.5L I5 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD	Great front seats, very comfortable. Minimal wind buffeting with the top down. Volvo offered an accessory wind blocker with this model but it's not necessary. Interior trim on the arm rests could be softer. My elbow gets sore resting on the hard plastic. I keep a small fleece pad in the car to solve this little issue. see full Volvo C70 review
