    I posted in another thread with this car, but I'll share here also.

    Don't get me wrong, I'm all about performance and can appreciate one fast car whether it's pushing 1cyl or 10, FWD, AWD, or RWD. These are just my observations.

    The car doesn't seem very practical. No true race-bred car really is, but this is a little excessive.

    The soot/build up from the exhaust will cover the rear windshield, and tarnish the paint over time. Not to mention you have to have the car off when getting in/out of the trunk. I'd rather not have hot exhaust gases in my face when accessing my trunk.

    Aside from the gaudy front bumper and the overall aesthetics of the car, with brakes that massive on a seemingly compact car, it's a tad bit overkill. I hope this car has about 550HP and/or weighs 4,000lbs or so otherwise it's just there for the cool factor as opposed to being functional. Brembo calipers would've sufficed and probably costs hundreds less. Not to mention having to drop a few hundred bucks everytime you replace the brake pads.

    Cool looking car with promise of it being sporty, but just a little too "out there" for my tastes.

    Not trying to bash, just an observation and some constructive criticism from one car enthusiast to another.

    IS the C30 coming out in the states or is it just a euro car?

    Last I heard theyve been tossing the idea around, haven't read about a confirmation yet.

    its confirmed that the c30 will be here model year '08
    5 cylinder turbo!
    and about the brakes...
    Continuing its quest for creativity, Evolve engineered and built its own brake system for the C30. The front caliper assembly consists of more than 100 components resulting in a 14-piston billet aluminum work of art. Rear calipers are six piston assemblies. Each piston/cylinder is finned and exposed to 360º of airflow to reduce the tendency for brake fluid to boil during repeated high-speed use. The massive two-piece directionally vaned rotors measure 386mm in front and 362mm in the rear and feature an exclusive Evolve slot pattern. Evolve devised a mechanical/hydraulic parking brake system that uses stock brake handle components to exert hydraulic pressure upon the front calipers. Its two small “master cylinders” are mounted on the front strut tower bar for easy viewing. The parking brake system locks the front wheels allowing the driver to “load” the turbochargers for brutal off the line acceleration.

    looks like the Homer Simpson Mobile! The one with the 37 cupholders. I'm sure it probably has speed though.

    ehhh its not the best looking car in the world but you would definitely be getting some looks if you drove that thing. That is a TIGHT engine bay! anyone know the specs for power/torque? It must make some pretty good power for those huge tires in the back!

    evolve is known for its asthetic extremities, not just its power. so while the car may very well make 500+whp, some of the details just seem a little superficial. imma have to agree with fcman though. it just doesnt do it for me.
