Another Hot Hatch From Europe: Meet Volvo's Sexy Looking C30 http://www.autoblog.com/2006/07/19/v...-shots-leaked/
What can I say except that this sucker is hot. The C30 is much better looking than BMWs E87 1er, a bit crisper looking than VWs Mark V Golf/Rabbit and close to the Audi A3 in terms of panache, power (provided the 260hp turbo inline 5 and 6 speed manual gearbox show up on the options list) and style. I like it. The front is typical Volvo which these days is not that bad. I would have like a few creases here and a couple sharp edges there but as we all know Volvo is still about "safety first." The rear though. WOW. Very unique and interesting design that ends up working very well in this application. I like.
