Hey guys, just stopping in to show off the C30 2.0 T5. I meet up with a bunch of focus fanatics during a cruise:

My car was the Orange Cougar

Anyways, the C30 finally got in yesterday at the North Scottsdale Volvo. We can't pick it up until Monday (awaiting paperwork) but my wife and I went down today to check it out. The car was ordered back in May of 2007, it's now mid-February 2008 :) Better pictures will follow as these are at the lot.

Enjoy...

Is there any word as to whether or not Focus ST engine parts will still bolt on? Say, for instance, the Wolf upgrades and such?

Congrats!

Hey, when you pick her up, could you help a brother out and measure the rear wiper? I'm dying to know if it'll fit a MKI Focus hatch (it looks damn big, though). Thanks!

I love that car it looks great with the factory body kit and I see you went with the sick 18's

The v1.0 is soft, but I drove a v2.0 and it is about on par with my SVT.

You wouldn't need them. There are plenty of T5 turbo performance parts available here. Volvo has been using the T5 in the S40 for a while now.
