I had a Volvo convertible for only a short amount of time because it drove like a truck. The steering was so stiff that I had trouble just navigating into a parking spot. The suspension was so stiff that I felt as if I were getting whiplash every time I went over a pothole. I mean, it was an upper-body workout just to park the darn thing. Very embarrassing. It looked great, but I hated the way it drove. And it was so noisy -- no one could hear me on my cell phone when I was in Atlanta traffic. Every time an 18-wheeler went by, there was a deafening noise.

Other than Volvo convertibles for the midlife-crisis generation, daughter says that the only women who drive Volvos are lesbians, and as Bridget Jones would say, daughter isn't interested in "batting for the other side.":funn:
EDIT: Don't mean to offend any Volvo owners. That's daughter's opinion. Actually I have had more than one Volvo; only one was a convertible. :blush:

I bought a 2008 Honda Civic 2 months ago, and I LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!!!!
It gets 43 miles to the gallon and plenty roomy for my 6'3 frame.
I got the lx model which is the pretty basic one but the ex has more options and its still under 20.
There fun to drive, extremely efficient, and incredibly safe.
Happy hunting!
