Re: Volvo C30 is hot!!

Overall very distinctive, I like it a lot. It is different from the usual Euro hatchback suspects.

Re: Volvo C30 is hot!!

Hmm, I must say I really don`t like this new Volvo! seems to me ever since Ford captured a piece of their pie the Volvo design department has been going down hill and so has the reliability.

Rumer has it that VW wants to bring back the Scirocco which was really hot in the 80s. This might give the Volvo a run for it`s money!

The VW, I believe will be one hot item.

Sometimes there is a big difference between looking at a picture of a car and having it standing infront of you in real life. I had no love for the first when the pictures of the production car was posted but was star struck when I saw a C30 T5 with sports package in real life.
The car is unique and the Scirocco with its proper four seats can only be the direkt competitor.

Here are a few pictures from Paris:







.........and the arch nemisis:



Very hot.

You have a point there Luwalira (I seem to be the only one who spells your name here btw but the style of the Volvo reminds me of the Ford Focus compact way too much!! I don`t believe a real-life experience would help my convictions!

The Scirocco concept is nice though, I can`t wait to see the final product.
