The best car overall in this class is the Lexus consumer reports determined that for their last article. The second best car was the Volvo C70. Its a well built, safe car but isnt meant to be driven like a race car and doesnt have all the bells and whistles.
I absolutely love my flamenco red C70. Clean lines, gorgeous new front, and did I mention Volvo SAFETY? Look at a cut away of the C70, then drive with confidence that you and your sweetie will SURVIVE just about ANY crash. ROPS anyone???
I compared G37, C70, 335i, SLK 320 and 350C when I intent to purchase a car. C70 was out in 1 hour after I did research. I mean seriously, people wouldn't look at your car twice if you have Volvo C70. I bought 350C later on because I think this car fits me better.
I personally like the design. I don't know why this guy gives the crap opinion about it. Car shape design depends on personal taste so don't judge on someone's design about your personal taste. It's not professional.
Lexus can out run BMW any time. Volvo is a good car but after 5 yrs. It's a piece of shit. Had three LEXUS, love them all and wouldn't trade them for European car.
Ok kids, I use to mystery shop and I shopped Lexus. The sales dude slipped and told me (On Camera) Lexus is just Toyota with standard Leather and a first Aid kit. The IS C (beautiful as it is) is just the Toyota Solars (Ever wonder why it's no longer sold as a Toyota? HInt. Hint. Wink Wink Nudge Nudge.
I would lean more toward Volvo myself. I have owned both and keep going back to Volvo. Quality and reliability have always been better for me with Volvo; when I had my GS 450 it left me stranded twice in the four years I had it. My XC70 and S60 have always been dependable and never given me any headaches. The Volvo dealer on the other hand… Could take some lessons on customer service from Lexus – Lexus was always hands down better at dealing with problems.
the new volvo is more attractive! But it's problem is it needs a 6 speed auto and a new engine. Is that blue leather in the lexus? blehhhh ugly and it looks horrific from the back! the lexus has the right engine (well at least in IS350) its just not that sporty!
This guy is a complete idiot. First off, his presentation is horrible and he constantly keeps using the same adjectives to describe both of the vehicles. In addition, the BMW 3-series, Lexus IS C, Volvo C70, and Infiniti G37 Convertible are all in the same class, that explains why they were all featured in a comparison test by Motor Trend. Volvo doesn't even come close in it's dynamics, features, quality, and technology compared to Lexus. Get a job your actually good at bud.
mate , have driven both . Lexus = the most boring cars ever made. yep , they might drive ok but as a machine they are nothing , there is nothing to them in terms of humans. Volvo appeals to humans.... we are humans .... Lexus are like the Japs = amazing techno but thats it. Lexus = mind numbed humans.
sorry , Lexus are just embarressing....just had to say that.....the only thing going for them is the back massage thing on the 80 grand car on the rear seats. They are techno but empty cars....how any human can get involved with them is odd.....
I think he got a point: Lexus is the worst in the MT comparison of these cars if you are talking about dynamics if you take it against the BMW is right for being in the same class but BMW is the real athlete of the class and Lexus is the Teachers pet why? why? just drive them! and Why you say Volvo has no quality? I would compare latest Volvos to Audis and well Audi is really good stuff and in safety Volvo is benchmark. Focus on important stuff not just soft touch dash
does anyone actually consider volvo as a serious competitor in the luxury car market anymore? horrible review by the way, it seems as if he has no idea what he's talking bout.
I got the new ISC 350 last week.. Damn the fucking price is too high around 57 thousand out of the door.. fuck my pocket is burning... I enjoy the interior and lot of high tech option.
I like lexus... the IS models are cool. BUT that interior on the IS C is really bad. Blue seats? Who is looking for blue seats in a car? Why no reviewer ever comments on that is beyond me. Blue... really?
here is how the vehicles in its class mark...
1.Volvo C70 and Infiniti G37
2.BMW 3 series
3.Lexus IS C and Audi A5
Most of them were redesigned during 2009-2012
