I know, I know... But I'm starting to like their cars. Their styling has been ok for a few years already, and this one looks nice too. Volvo quality also isn't bad. The major problem for me is that it's FWD, so unfortunately IMO it will never be as exciting to drive as a 3series. But really, Volvo's image has changed for me, it's okay to buy a Volvo nowadays.

Wow I like it. I like wedge designs and this one is pleasing to my eye. The interior is cool also. My question is if it is worth the premium over the Mazda 3, which shares the same platform.
