Volvo C30 vs. Sauber C30

[edit]

We all know that the Ford F-150 vs. Ferrari F150 became such a big piece of news. However, the similar row between Volvo and Sauber (yes, Volvo are looking into it but are not thirsting for media attention) is barely mentioned. Is it worthy of being mentioned here that the Volvo C30 shares its name with the Sauber and a name-change might possibly come out of that too? --Chrill (talk) 03:17, 16 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Update: The following links [1] [2] discuss the issue, albeit both in Swedish. The second link is a reliable sports source, EuroSport. Worth mentioning is that the Volvo C30 is actually used in racing, both in the STCC and the WTCC touring cars championships. --Chrill (talk) 03:20, 16 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Likely worth inclusion in the article if there's any action taken or stories in the more mainstream (English) motorsport media. Probably a very different case; the '30' is part of a natural sequential progression where '150' was but a number and far from any convention Ferrari has used before. Could be interesting... and "interesting" usually leads to better Wikipedia pages, hm? Tstorm(talk) 06:37, 16 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
