Volvo C30 Real Gas Mileage: Cons

2009 2dr Hatch turbocharged 227hp 2.5L I5
6-speed manual FWD		 It is not as good as I would like. see full Volvo C30 review
2008 2dr Hatch turbocharged 227hp 2.5L I5

2008 2dr Hatch turbocharged 227hp 2.5L I5
6-speed manual FWD		 Ill admit that when I drove the C30 I was driving fast. I rented it for a weekend to see if I wanted to buy it or not. And I went thru an entire tank in less than 200 miles. see full Volvo C30 review
