      i agree the 1-series hatchback overall looks better than the c30, but its mainly because the back of the volvo is

        The rear reminds me of a Gremlin.

            So true. I could probably get used to it, but I wouldn't buy one.


            BTW - As long as Joe makes it back in town Sunday I will be able to get the tranny for you.

                I haven't test drove one but the turbo'd one will walk a 03 acura 3.2TL. I found that one out first hand.

                  I dont like the back end of the 3 door 135, it looks too VAN-ish. The c30 back looks more like a fastback and thats sexy. But i agree the door is a bit too throw back to another hatch they did in the 70's, the p1800, it looks almost like the same door.


                  I actually dont mind the 5 door 135 compared to the 3 door though.

                    my friend had a yellow 1800ES (no "P" that was a designation for the earlier cars)

                    It was a pretty cool car, if you didn't mind going slow. Talk about built to last. It handled pretty well after he tweaked it with ipd stuff and he eventually swapped a mustang 5 speed into it.

                      I like the C30, but it needs different tail lights. Ones off a regular volvo sedan, get rid of the reflector running up to the roof.

                              The back looks pretty good in person - a guy drives one at my gym.

                                I love the c30 but I've had a long time love interest in the Audi A3 hatch. Heres the 2010 design....
