Picked up the new whip on thursday

The LED DRLs

The keyless entry door button

The trunk

Interior

Behind the radio/hvac controls aka waterfall

Center console storage and USB access

Fold out/up dash nav with center speaker

The T5 motor

The active bending HID projection headlights with washers

The 18's

We have owned a few other luxury cars like lincolns and cadillacs, but this car is by far nicer... it is so much more refined and the attention to small details is great. The active bending (they turn when you steer around the corner) headlights are great. The LED DRLs are super visable during the daytime driving and the switching is all automatic. We simply love this car.

Nice ride, Gas.

I really love the Volvo interiors.

I'm not sure about the pop-up Nav but rest looks really sleek.

Friday I ordered LEDs for the interior lights, and the reverse lights. I don't want to go overboard so I will keep it restricted to just the white LEDs.

Saturday it saw my tint guy... same tint as the Fiesta (20% rears/35% front doors/10% windshield strip).

And the 2 cars look good together...

Thanks and I wasn't sure either, but without it, the dash looks very very plain. Further, it seems to work well.

Nice car. Really awesome.

C30 is a sick ass car

That just looks like a lot of fun.

I really like it. The rear end is cool.

Does the gas pedal seem overly close to the brake, or is it just the camera angle???

New cars are always fun. I'm still in the honeymoon phase with mine. Just had the 3k service last week.

Very nice. That waterfall dash is unique.
