It's never easy saying goodbye; we here at Freedom Volvo know it, and so does Volvo. The Scandinavian automaker recently announced production of the Volvo C70 would be coming to an end in 2013, but that doesn't mean they're about to let it go out with a fizzle. Rather, they're aiming for a bang, and they plan to achieve it with the final edition Volvo C70 Inscription.

"The Inscription is based on our human-centric Designed Around You philosophy, offering those who love convertibles and coupes a beautifully detailed version with a lot of kerb appeal," says Doug Speck, Senior Vice President Marketing, Sales and Customer Service at the Volvo Car Corporation.

Volvo C70 Inscription Vital Stats

-    230-horsepower, 2.5-liter, turbocharged, 5-cylinder engine
-    Painted grille
-    18-inch, chrome wheels
-    Special 'Inscription' badging
-    Sovereign Hide upholstery

Exterior color options for the Volvo C70 Inscription include Black Stone, Black Sapphire, and Ice White. Meanwhile, available interior color choices are Off Black and Calcite. This gives drivers a level of customization that fits with the vehicle's overall quality. In other words, there's quite a bit of it.

As for what comes next... There have been conflicting reports. One claims that the automaker is working on a new convertible coupe to replace the C70, while another brings forth the new Volvo Concept You as a possible follow-up model. Either way, we can't wait to see what Volvo has in mind, and you can bet that we'll be keeping you informed every step of the way.
