I think it is, and it has to be one of the best performing as well.....
I love the Cabrio, but they don't have it here in Canada, infact, we got no Peugeot at all...

I love the 206 styling too, but, alas, it is pitifully slow. I read in my EUROPEAN (got it on vacation) Top Gear that it does 0-60 in 12.1 seconds. There may be a mope powerful version, but it can't be enough to make it really quick. I think that could be fixed, though, look at Grunholm, he won the WRC championship last year with a 206.
I also like the cabrio, it is much better than those firefly or cavalier convertables.

8 seconds is slow!!! I want mine to go in the 6's at least. Asw with everything, a 4-second car would be possible, with the $$$$.

Gosh I love the 206. I wish they'd start selling those here in the States. Have you seen the rally-spec 206's? They have like a tiptronic shifter behind the steering wheel. It's a small flat ring that coes around the back of the steering wheel itself. Pull towards you to shift up, and push to shift down. Cool!

Hehe  Pug 206 was the best selling car here last year. Love the styling (as well as the styling of the whole Pug 1997 lineup until they made it too sophisticated). There are also quite a few 206 cc - s here. Love them. My girlfriend also adores them!

Unfortunately, the 206 wouldnt sell well, as it is too small for huge-assed americans. Thats just the way it is. It sucks, but its true

In NZ we have the 206, it is a good seller, although the Toyota Echo, Renault Clio and Holden Barina seem to keep it from getting the title of top-selling supermini, I think it is a shame that we don't see ones like that one in the picture over here, but the GTi and CC(Convertable) look sporty enough so its not all bad
I myslef have a 607
