I hate when I want to post a car and it has already been suggested, with a crappy OP.

The Peugeot 407 Silhouette concept from the 2004 Geneva Motor Show was a styling exercise by Peugeot to show the customising possibilities of the new Peugeot 407. With an extreme body kit and imposing graphics the 407 Silhouette concept car displayed a three-part carbon fibre body structure, comprising the hood, passenger compartment and engine. The lightweight body sits on a tubular chassis. The Silhouette's front and rear fenders are extended and incorporate race style venting.

The 407 Silhouette concept car is modified with a rear running board, vents, front air scoops and additional headlights.

The 407 Silhouette's exterior light gray metallic paint is quiet and unimposing, this is in stark contrast to the wide white stripe running over the length of the concept. On each rear quarter panel, a lion’s head, reminiscent of the make’s history, highlights the curve of the rear fender.

The very tuner atmosphere of the interior reveals a wealth of materials highlighted by a dashboard of red and black leather with controls, central glossy panel and two bucket seats in red leather and 3D black mesh. The wheel features a color screen indicating the temperature and ideal route which it plots from map information it receives by satellite and precisely coordinates it with the car’s position.

The 407 Silhouette concept car is equipped with a V6 petrol engine generating 320 hp, located in a rear-central position, mated to a 6 speed sequential transmission.

Concept cars are often more intriguing than most road models built by same manufacturer. If you manage to find the one without ugly visuals, you've got the winner.

If I'm not mistaken, the engine powering the 407 Concept is the same V6 found on other French cars (Clio V6, Laguna, etc.), so I assume the car would be prone to oversteer considering the weight of the engine.

According to a forum member, the car weighs 950 kg.
