The first quarter of 2012 will see the introduction of the Volvo C70 with the Inscription package. The Polestar-modified hardtop droptop carries a $ 3,900 premium above the four-seater’s $ 40,450 MSRP and is “exclusive to the North Video: This BMW 1M makes 550 hp thanks to American muscle [w/video]” href=”http://www.noveanna.net/video-this-bmw-1m-makes-550-hp-thanks-to-american-muscle-wvideo/”>American market,” although exclusivity in this case appears to mean we get 500 of the car’s 2,000-unit global volume.

Those 39 Benjamins will get you 250 horsepower and 273 pound-feet (a gain of 23 hp and 37 lb-ft); aluminum sport pedals; new leather for the seats, dash and some trim; plus 18-inch wheels, a spoiler, and a black grille. Ice White and Black Sapphire Metallic will be your only color choices. Have a closer look at the swanky Swede in the gallery of high-res photos, and there’s a press release after the jump.
