Volvo C30

[Primalzer]

Well finally got rid of the Fusion, was a great car overall, just lacking in the "fun" department. Stepped up to a 2011 Volvo C30 R-Design 6-speed manual, got it with 5900 miles. Has every option except GPS. So far I love the car, I have always loved the styling but I know it's a love it or hate it design.

Good shit. I like volvos. Buddy had a S60 T5 that was a great car to him for a long time with very little maintenance.

Congrats on the purchase!

 

[Yaj Yak]

I dig these. are they relatively quick?

 

[Mook]

I dont think ive ever even seen one on the road...not sure I like the rear but its different and I dig that. Congrats!

 

[Bru]

Those are fun. Nice buy

 

[Mr Baytchos]

love the r design models. Also isn't this the same motor as the focus st in Europe?

 

[Primalzer]

Yeah this is basically the same chassis, same motor (same output too), same transmission as the previous gen Euro Focus ST

I love the C30. Good deal man

 

[Bob Kazamakis]

There's always that silver one out front of that sports car place on 14 in palatine. I always when I see it

 

[Primalzer]

Yeah I've been seeing that a lot lately, before I got mine I was going to go in and ask how much he wanted for it, considering it had dealer plates.

 

[EmersonHart13]

I think I have only seen one or two in my WHOLE life.

 

[Outlaw]

I see them all the time? Idk, must be a Barrington thing...

 

[C.Evans]

The rear is a little weird looking with the set of tits it has for tailights. But I dig it!

I actually dig the all glass hatch.

I've seen a few of these, and love the R models, saw them at the Volvo Bemis dealer in Sycamore, and have had a hard on since for them. I love R hatches... Volvo's interiors are nice, as well! Nice buy!

 

[RICH17]

[wolfe]

I love these. One of the most comfortable cars I've ever sat in
