  • My new C30

    S'pose I should have posted photos 6 weeks ago when I got it (my Halloween baby). I'm slow, what can I say.

    Can't wait for Spring. Will be lowering it further and mounting some sweet rimz.

    Awesome, I really like these cars.

    The new center console is a lot nicer than the older style (the one in my car) and I want that steering wheel so bad! I wish it would have been standard with the sport package in 06.

        Turbo 5's yes, the C30's are only FWD, the S40 and V50 are available in AWD.

          T5 yup. 230ish hp and lb-ft. Not AWD though. Thus far I have yet to detect any real torque steer, though, which is nice. And yeahm I love the center console. The interior feels so spacious and light and minimal due to the center stack being so thin, and there's ambient lighting in behind it too.

              Nice i like those! Still getting use to how they look from behind though. I think with the windows tinted it would look awesome. Nice new ride!

                These are old photos and I have tinted the windows, since. Looks great.

                    Awesome car, have been seeing a few more around town, I think they are great and also excited about the now confirmed 5 door!

                        They are a blast to drive, I dont like driving with the windows down. You get real bad wind noise because the rear windows don't open. Fun though thats for sure. When you do a power shift from 1st to 2nd...don't worry about the clunk, thats just your upper motor mount hating you.

                            I don't really care what it is! It just really doesn't do it for me.

                              Just giving you a hard time .

                              If we weren't planning on trading it in I would seriously consider putting lowering springs on the V50 but I guess I bought the jetta to sink my money in to.
