  C30: rare, wonderful, comfortable, and so attractive - 2013 Volvo C30
  By coloradocarnut - September 27 - 9:59 pm

  This is really a lovely car. We purchased the last 13 new in July14. Auto trans, T-5. Did TONS of research beforehand. We are a Toyota/Honda family, so European is a departure, with trepidation. We have the Premier Plus package, not R-Design. Thus far, the car is beyond expectations; a joy to drive, beautiful to look at, and well made. Its QUIET inside, very powerful, and so different. You wont see them often, which is nice too. Its not a high performance hatch, and thats good, because we didnt want that. For those w/o kids, and a different hauling vehicle, this is a great commuter that spoils with luxury, is safe, and gives you confidence. No problems so far.

  Style and Substance - 2013 Volvo C30
  By djd123 - August 15 - 1:46 am

  Have owned for 3 weeks now, and the smiles keep coming. This car is very well put together, looks great, handles well, and has plenty of power on tap when you need it. It is very comfortable as a daily commuter, even with the stiffer R-Design suspension. As other reviews across the web have stated, the steering is a bit numb and the manual shift action a bit rubbery compared to other sport coupes/"hot hatches", but it makes up for it with how well the overall package fits together. This is a car that somehow seems greater than the sum of its parts. Hard to explain.
