Congrats on the new car.  I really like the looks of the Volvo C30...they did a nice job on it and it stands out in its own quiet little way.  Looks great!  Take some pictures of the interior sometime! :)

How do you find the interior?  I remember the interior of the T5 at the autoshow was brilliant, but I was a little let down in comparison with the interior of the regular car...  I saw them a year apart, though, so I might be misremembering one or the other now.  :)

Otherwise, great choice.  The C30 is a really neat little car, and I don't see many on the road.  :thumbup:

Excellent. The T tech upholstery is quite comfortable. I'm going to be going to the valley today, so I can report back on long term comfort, but with Volvo being known as having some of the best seats in the biz, I think it's safe to say I won't be disappointed.

Congrats BB!  Great to see you.

Don't forget to include pics of the 240.  I love those things.

I love them too.

I'll see about posting some 240 pics before she goes.

i really like the distinctive look of the c30.   i think volvo has been known as home of the safe wagon so long that people can't see the c30 as cool.    it's all marketing bs.   nice car!

Very nice indeed and congratulations! I saw one on the 407 last night on my way back from a dinner date with a fellow CTC member.

Great looking cars!  Did you get some bodywork done on the passenger side rear quarter panel of the CL?  The paint looks off from the door and front.  Could be reflection.... not sure.

Thanks!

The CL was in an accident and that door had to be replaced. It was my uncle's car at the time and he got it done at a small private shop. And wouldn't you know it, they found something close to the actual colour, but not the actual colour. My uncle didn't notice it until about 3 weeks later, but by that time the small shop had gone out of business.... go figure ::)
