"I've spent siginificant amounts of my life in a 1991 Explorer, 1996 Dodge Neon (death trap) 2007 Fusion and a 2006 XC-70. The C30 I purchased in Feb of 2013, is the best ride and performance I've had. It handles well enough and is nimble enough for just that little push over the edge in traffic, it goes to 11. The low end torque is amazing and peaks from 1500-5000 rpm, that 's an incredible range of top-end torque and makes the C30 quick. I pushed it to 120mph on a long straight and had no issues with stability on the front end. Performance and handling are very well balanced. The interior is minimalist, but clean and well organized, very intuitive. There is plenty of room in the cargo area for everyday use and short to medium trips, not sure what every one knocks it for in that regard. If you're hauling a horse trailer or boat, chances are you aren't in the same catgeory as the C30, so why is it blasted for not having enough space? The seats fold down and our 9 month old 84lb. puppy is happy in the back. My only complaint is the OEM tires. They are pretty much worthless on the ice and snow. If you can get a 2012 used with Volvo "piece of mind" maint. package, it's a steal. Great car Volvo, sad to see it go but glad mine is only one of 2700+ in the U.S. I will keep this car as long as I can, hope to it pass the 1mil mark someday. Couldn't be happier with the purchase. I gave reliability only one star as I haven't enough time to find out if any issues."

"This is a great car. Have the C-30 R Design. Kids 9 and 8 alove the back bucket seats. The design is such that they can turn and look out the back window. 65lb Lab fit easily in the hatch area and likes it more than the X-5. I added the polestar and the car is so much fun to drive. BNicer than others I tested all which were more expensive, BMW 128, 135, Mini, Infiniti G35 and Audi A-3."
