I think I might be a lesbian...

… because I really like the new Volvo C30. If it is offered in awd soon I just may have to consider it. I love hatches.

Volvo’s are getting hawwwt!

I just might buy one as my next car.

Looks hot but reliability is def. a concern. It would be a great car to pick up 2 years old since volvos have shitty resale.

any idea on how powerful it may be?

227 hp and under 3000 lbs according to volvo’s website. They are apparently at dealerships already.

price?

price is up to you

I test drove one here in NYC. It wasn’t the AWD, I think it was the 2.5T 6spd.

Meh, it’s ok - needs a lot more umph. Shifter was vague.

Is it available in awd? I might have missed it but it only looked to be fwd on volvo’s site.

I only test drove the FWD… i can’t even imagine if it was AWD…

I love it except for the 2 tone paint scheme.

I just priced one out with decent options on their website…$32g’s.

wow looks more expensive.

they did a test in car and driver comparing it to the gti and mini cooper s…it scored last…i guess it’s not the performance car it’s hyped up to be… and fwd…gay

but other than that the car is danm hot! I love the ass end

The car weighs 3200lbs., is FWD, has 218hp and runs 14.9 in the 1/4 mile by motor trend. Needs to be refined from what i’ve heard but i don’t see reliability being a problem since it’s a volvo, i know your thinking ford, but even if reliability proves to be a problem there is that thing that comes with cars that have registrations that say 2008, what’s it called … oh yeah, a warranty, who worries about a 2008 being reliable. Beat the shit out of it till the warranty is up then sell it.

I love these.

I really like them but I just wish they had an AWD version.

me too but I guess they won’t ever make one because it would take away trunk space or something gay?
I don’t know how subaru or any other awd manufacture does it then?

i likes. i thoroughly enjoy the c70. :tup:
