No it doesn't wink.gif

So far they have the same wheels on, the base model euro wheels, but in every C70 spy pic they've had those. That's what makes it looks like an 04, but the front, the headrests, the shoulderline and rear are not 2004, that's for sure.

That's what I was thinking, probably just the wheels.

The one person who doesn't own a C70 is the first to know anything about the new ones. Irony?

The reason we might think it looks like a Sebring is obviously the wheels. I mean come on, they're the same dayum wheels. tongue.gif

Actually I think the new volvo convertible isn't even going to be called a C70. I saw in Car and Driver, probably a few months ago that the new one will the called the C50. I believe it's going to share the same platform as the 2004.5-present S40. From the pics I saw in C&D, it's very similar to the S40. Not sure if it's going to share the same engine options though. It would be nice (but it'll never happen) if they dropped the new 8 cylinder from the XC90 in that thing...it would be a total S4 cabrio chaser tongue.gif

oops my bad, it may be called the C40. I had it in my head for some reason that it was going to be called the C50...probably cause of the new V50 wagon.

C40 makes more sense. Maybe a C40 coupe also?
