I had to suggest this, I just had to. This is part of what really sparked my interest in Volvos. This awesome, blue machine definitely must be in Gran Turismo!

Funny thing about this car, I think I saw one of these at the Hartford Auto Show when I still lived in CT. Ah, that auto show is one of the reasons why I kinda miss CT. Also, I never got around with adding more things to this thread until now simply due to me forgetting that I made it. That's one of the cons of making a lot of suggestions I suppose.

The second video is a regular R Design, the second OP pic is of the Polestar C30 concept thing (the 400hp one) and a regular R Design, and the car is actually FWD.

Seriously?!

...DARN IT! I had it originally listed FWD, but someone then corrected me by saying it's 4WD. So, I basically changed something when there was no need. I hate it when I do that! :banghead:
Of course, I should have guessed that maybe he thought I was referring to the concept car. *sigh*
Screw it, I'm updating this thread anyway.
 
I honestly don't see what's boring about the current C30 in GT6. It's the R-Design, which is the hot version of the previous Gen C30. It's Volvo's Focus ST essentially and I don't see anything wrong with that.

EDIT: I'm wrong about the generations, this C30 I'm posting is actually a facelift, not another generations. There's only one generation of the C30.
