Peugeot 407 Coupé !!!

Superb ! The current 406 Coupé Pininfarina won't be ashamed of this new 407 !!!! I love it. It'll appear in mid-2004.

Me like....:)

If it was not a french car I'd buy it! :eek:

hein ???! What do you have against French cars ?

You can for instance look at the german made TÜV report.. Most french cars have poor quality! This is a fact.

Poor quality ? :D sure ! ... could you stop saying dumb things like that please ?
My parents got many Citroën Peugeot and Renault (CX, XM, BX, 504, 406, 306, Espace, etc.) and have less problems than on other cars like Opel, Volvo or Mercedes ! And they keep their cars about 3 years and 150 000 km (100 000 miles).
Plus, today, french cars are almost as reliable as german or japanese cars. And when there are problems, it's because French cars have an advanced technology (multiplexing, etc.), they try some things before Mercedes, BMW, VW, Toyota or of course GM or Ford....

If you see some figures, the most relible cars in France are 1st : the Peugeot 406, 2d : the Mercedes C Class, 3rd : the Citroën Xantia (at the technical control of 2001).
And if French cars were so bad, do you think 1 car over 4 in Europe would be French ?

Even Italian cars are today more reliable. And, surely, much more than American ones.

Thats what happens when you diss the French :D:D:D:D:D:D LOL good points though Michael- my Renault Laguna, Renault and Peugeot 6O7 never gave me any problems and the Renaults got to 120,000 and 175,000 km's respectively. Of ourse people will be skeptical- but they don't know what they are missing out on


:D :D

That 407 isn't bad looking. OTOH, does it really need a grille opening that large?

Jim : lol ! ;)

tigermiata : the front won't be exactly the same, it'll surely be more discreet, as the current 406 Coupé (picture).

:eek: sweet

AWESOM car and i like most of the french cars the only problem is that that some of the cars don't have good aceclaration like the renault megan and Kango.

It depends on the engine... as on every car.
For the Mégane, if you choose the 2.0 Turbo 200 hp, trust me, the accelaration will be good !! ;)
And for the Kangoo, indeed it's not a sport car, but it's a Kangoo, I mean a "multispace" derivated from an industrial vehicle (as a VW Caravelle e.g).
And for this new 407 Coupé, it'll be available with a new V6 3.0 245 hp and a petrol V6 HDi 180 hp.... so, it's almost (there's alas not a overpowered version like the M3) as good as a 3 Series Coupé.

V6 3.0 245 hp ?, wow thats probebly much faster then the 206:)

Indeed, but the 206 RC with 180 hp is fast too. ;)

oo i like :p

The 4O6 Coupe was just one of those cars I didn't want to see redesigned :p so it's relieving to see that Peugeot didn't fuck it up :D

That's an interesting way of putting it! Yeah the new car looks nice but the grill is too big, I'm sure it won't look like that in real life. The HDi and V6 models will be interesting!

but the 406 coupé will be redisigned....

it will be a face lift with the front of the 407...:bloated:

The front will just have new bumpers and there will be new wheels on the car, that's a little restyling.

I much much much prefer the 406 Coupe. Something tells me the 407 isnt styled by Pininfarina?

Man thats tight

The new 407 Coupé will be styled by the Peugeot Design Center. I find it very nice too.

Peugeot should be available in the U.S:mad:

it will ;) ... but don't expect it before 2007 :(

The 406 Coupé will be restlyled before its retirment in 2005 and the coming for the 407 Coupé.

Little modifications inside :

outside :

yup;) it is:)

here's a pic of the future 407. Not a very good photo (little) but, you can imagine better ;)

Dont like the angle of the front lights

You don't like the lights ?!!!! Oh ! ....well, you're English, that's not surprising :D ;) ;) ;)

I may live in england, but who said im english :thefinger


on a serious note, are you telling me the 407 coupe's front looks as good as the 406 coupe??

.... almost yes. That's different, we must wait to see it in real on the road I think. But I think that the 407 is wonderfull ! ;) French Taste, you're English, you like Pudding, Gelly and Guinness.... you don't know what it means :D :D :D :evillol:

:sorry: :smooch:

You people=:screwy:



:thefinger

hehe... somebody needs to bring humour to AF, you should be thankful we do!

:D :D :D

It' s very nice car, but this front- similar to 307 ( I don't like it).
It would be more interesting in live.
In the matter of quality- I'm not sure that german car are better (especially Opel). My only problems with 406 coupe are the electrical parts. The engine and all machanical side are good.
In my opinion the best cars are made in Japan!

Hi, i know you're new here so welcome to AF. I should however point out that it is against AF rules to revive a dead thread, i.e. one that has been inactive for 3 months.

Happy posting
