Even though OkCars shared one of my posts on Oppo already, I'm considering this to be my first post.

I live in Fort Collins, Colorado and I am a Volvo fanatic! There are many cars I like and would consider buying, but I could not live with myself if I bought anything but a Volvo. I drive a Volvo C30. After I got it, my Mom drove it a few times and loved it, so I convinced her to get a C30 Polestar Limited Edition (#230)!

I know almost everything there is to know about modern Volvos, so much so my local dealership is offering me a job for the summer (I already have one so....).

I watch every Formula 1 race live (go Lotus and Grosjean!) and hope to work for one of the teams some day, but that's nearly impossible.

I'm also working on getting my private pilot's license right now, and am interested in airplanes and flying as well.

Color is almost the same, just a little darker. It's my sister's. Somehow, it's a limited edition too.

I have recommended C30s to people on here several times, and finally somebody who actually bought one! And another!

I saw a blue C30 Polestar with a manual the other day. I lost my shit.

There was an auto and a manual at the dealer when we got it (this is the auto). This one had been sitting for a couple of months, so they had it $5,000 cheaper than MSRP. The deal was too good to pass.

And they are depreciating like crazy right now. :/

Very good value at their current price.

Nice! First post. Im glad you didn't mention Pastor Maldonado when cheering for Lotus.
I also watch all races, but qualifying as well, and some practices.

I only occasionally cheer for Maldonado because the money he brings helps build a better car for Romain. :)

I'm glad somebody out there besides me loves the C30! They're great little cars. The Polestar is awesome. Welcome to Oppo!
