I got to ride in a silver 1979 Volvo Bertone in the mid-90’s. The car was owned by a friend of a friend. I recall being greatly jealous because she did not realize how nice of a car she was driving. It was just a “hand-me-down” from her father.

For the Discriminating Investor, the Price of Gold is the Same as the Price of Silver.
The Bertone Coupe is a limited production 2+2 personal luxury-class touring car, now available in two rich, metallic finishes. And while neither is more valuable than the other, both embrace an automobile created for individuals who can appreciate — and afford — classic Italian craftsmanship and quality Swedish engineering.
The Bertone Coupe is masterfully assembled under the exacting eye of Nuccio Bertone. Inside, you encounter the smell and feel of soft, selected hides of furniture-grade black or beige Italian leather — painstakingly handstitched on every seat.
Of course, the pleasure you receive from the Bertone Coupe comes from more than what you see and touch. When you drive it, you will experience the quick response of a light-alloy, fuel-injected V-6 engine. And a suspension that enhances your sense of complete control, personal safety and comfort.
As is the case with gold and silver, however, the quantities of these remarkable automobiles will be limited. So in order to fully appreciate their beauty, it would be wise to contact your Volvo dealership quickly. Because no matter which Bertone Coupe you acquire, you’ll find its value well worth the price.
