Volvo is more of a crossover rather than car. And it looks a bit to bland. Only thing that makes it look good is the wide rims.

The Volvo C30 is actually a very attractive car in person. One of those that immediately stands out if you see it parked at a dealership as you drive by. Also, Volvo is releasing the "R" series for the C30, so heres a picture of that. Pretty nice looking if you ask me, even without the super wide rims.



EDIT:: Take into consideration, that the Volvo's of today have come SO far as far as aesthetics are concerned. Compare the above picture to this:



Kinda forgot to talk about the Scirocco..I think it's a decent looking automobile, but the space between the rear wheel and the rear window is way too wide, and makes me think of older styled hybrid cars (the ones with the covers over the wheels). You can see what I mean mostly in the third link posted by the OP. Word?

Speaking of volvos of today. My girlfriend has the 2007 s40 T5 and its fun as hell. Almost as fun to drive as our little go carts and a lot faster. She even lets me drive it sometimes. lol

Also, the sciroccco is growing on me but I still like the c30 better.

It's OK. I'm not sure why it would be ti inspired. As long as it's FWD, I'm not interested.

By the way, all the pictures posted of the scirocco are concepts, here is the actual production car. And one of the nurburgring 24hr version for good measure.

this robo-racer rice bucket look-a-like may as well have a VTEC or Type R badge up front...
crap, in my opinion.
