Cool. daan has one, so there's one point. And if I recall correctly, he had the car dynoed and its power figures actually increased over what they were new. point two.

I've always found them damned attractive.

They sound good too above 3500rpm

And it goes well through Fenland...

*innocent whistle*

Joey D · Oct 19, 2009

Cool. It's a French coupe. I don't really think much of French cars and the gods know I would never want to own one, but they are still pretty cool. Beats me why, it's just you look at them and go "ya that's cool".

DaddyVDUB · Oct 19, 2009

No attraction at all for me.

daan · Oct 19, 2009

I think it's sub-zero. Was going to relegate it to cool because I own one, but decided it was still sub-zero.

Polishes baanhammer for those that vote uncool... :dopey:

Seriously uncool. not a 407 coupe.

the_fatadder · Oct 19, 2009

Not really a fan of these, as a coupe it needs the image as well as the looks & driving ability to make the cool catagory.

This car lacks all 3, its a Peugeot so instantaneously it has a serious amount of uncoolness to overcome. the looks havent aged that well, and its a FWD coupe which is just wrong!

All in all it I've voted uncool, while there isnt anything I really like about it, theres also nothing which really screams seriously uncool.

Giancarlo · Oct 19, 2009

Uncool; it's not the most unique or quality looking car, and it's not sold in the US.

Fixed for you. Peugeot should've got Pininfarina to design the 407 instead of thinking their in-house designers could do a better job...

Designed and built by Pininfarina, although Ferrari were reportedly unhappy with the similarity with the 456. Uses the same leather that Ferrari did, (on Recaro seats). So there's quality there. It's also an 11 year old French/Italian car that still works...

Gotta be worth some amount of cool...

Isn't the 407 the one that looks like a whale?

GTP_Ingram · Oct 19, 2009

Cool car. From the days before Peugeot lost their way styling-wise, and still made good looking cars (106, 306 hatch/cabrio, 406 saloon) and this was the best looking of the lot.

That's the one. Famine can do a really good impression of it.

Lucas · Oct 19, 2009

Looks great. The only thing I don't like about it is that it's FF. Cool.

Azure Flare · Oct 19, 2009

to me, all French cars (except the Renault Sport Clio) are uncool because its from France

A bit prejudice aren't we?

Lucas · Oct 19, 2009

Yeah. I don't really understand what do people have against countries.

Azure Flare · Oct 19, 2009

the French don't like people that aren't french

Good job it's Italian then really, isn't it?

I didn't think it was that confusing.

Really? I know a few French people and they like me.

race'emhard
what?

The 406 Coupe was designed and built by Pininfarina, thus making it Italian....which come to think of it makes the car even cooler than I first thought. It's both French and Italian. I should have voted Sub-Zero it seems.

Tornado · Oct 19, 2009

race'emhard
what?

Think of it as the French equivalent of the Chrysler TC by Maserati. Or, rather, don't.

Danny · Oct 19, 2009

I'm not sure.

It's an intensely pretty car, but DaAn has one.

Hmm...

Encyclopedia · Oct 19, 2009

Cool. Quite pretty.

SRV2LOW4ME · Oct 19, 2009

Un-cool. Its the poor mans Saab. What douche is pretending to be something that is pretending to be a BMW?
