Thinking of coppin' ford focus st + question of volvo i seen

[Klyk21]

Dunno brehs, the st been calling my name lately. Jay leno did a review of it love the interior and its small yet powerful and gets decent mpg (30+ mpg) for right at 20k for 2013 model. I saw this volvo hatchback on the road the other day and have no idea what model it was. All i know its newer model and hatchback. Anyone know the car?

EXTREMELY FUN TO DRIVE. I DON'T LIKE THEM FOR LONG DRIVES BECAUSE I'M FAT. BUT THAT IS A PERSONAL ISSUE. PRETTY RESPONSIVE. DON'T KNOW HOW RELIABLE THE ENGINE IS THOUGH.

EDIT: MY BAD. I THOUGHT YOU WERE TALKING ABOUT THE FIESTA ST. HAVEN'T DRIVEN THE FOCUS.

You get a lot for your money, compared to an import.
A 2013 Subaru Impreza WRX with a turbo'ed flat-4 would cost more and is less fuel efficient.
The downside is that the Ford would lose more in depreciation than the Subaru through the years.

That's the Volvo C30.

best FWD out right now, scratch that, best sports compact for under 20,000 barely used.

dope car.

/thread.

I wish I had the cash for this. Power-to-weight ratio is a little bit better than an early 90s Acura Integra GS-R. Think about it.
The ST (driven by a professional) did a 0-to-60 in 5.6 seconds. Stock, no mods.

Called my insurance company and they saying that its going to be 1700 over a 6 month span to insure this beast .2013 10k miles. May wait or just cop a bike instead. I just need speed and mpg

not bad, that's not too much less than what I pay for my Veyron Super Sport insurance.

Damn this car is calling my name. Saw a st1 (2013)for under 20k and another st3 for just over. How much would you guys recommend for down payment? Im thinking 5k

I am def intrigued by this and the Fiesta ST. Moreso the Fiesta ST. Z is kinda stupid on gas and the no back seat thing is killing me. I would love to make my Z a track car and have one of these for a daily driver. W/a chip this thing will probably give my Z the business Lot of reviews say these cars don't drive like FWD either

yea i got a plan now. At this point, its either gon be a gsxr or an st. Gsxr is cheaper but im def going to test drive that st before purchase. About to downgrade my suv to a honda civic and make that my daily whip and then splurge on a fun 2nd car/bike.

If u havent ridden before a GSXR is a bad first bike. I dont know if youve ridden before. Other than that

Nope, never ridden. Going to take the training course hopefully by years end. When you say bad, im assuming you mean bad ass.

No I mean bad like

Get a lil 250-500, get your feet wet for a year, then move to the big boys. I started on a 650 and that was too much. 3 yrs later its too slow and I'm ready to move on, but I'm a much better rider than when I started.
