f1anatic Posted October 31, 2010 Share Posted October 31, 2010 give it to me with twin turbo V8 AWD. But it is entirely too long and too wide. 5.3m long, 2m wide & 1.4m high. NO. It will handle like crap once you factor in the weight (2000 kg or close to that). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sydtron Posted October 31, 2010 Share Posted October 31, 2010 Citroen will always live under the shadow of the DS. That car was something out of a designer's dream, beyond even a concept car in terms of innovation. Until one of their cars are powered by a perpetual motion machine driving a hoverjet and it's made entirely out of unobtanium while still being reasonably priced they'll never come out from under it. The Metropolis is an incredible looking car, but every time I see it I think it's still nowhere near as nice as a DS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sactojesse Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 Citroen will always live under the shadow of the DS. Agreed. When I think of Citroen, I think of: 1) 2CV, 2) DS, 3) SM, and 4) Traction Avant. The 2CV may be what pops into my mind first when I think of Citroen, but the DS is IMO the high water mark design-wise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
