    Would it do 190mph if it was FWD?
    But that cabin though. I can see why you thought that.

    So, I'm guessing it's like the ferrari 550, where the engine is actually sitting on the front wheels, but there's shit loads of empty space in the front end giving it a huge overhang.

    Modern and older French cars look kinda the same as other car companies from the outside.

    some are good, like a ds3 racing. Citroen_DS3_Racing_001.jpg and some are bad like a Peugeot 1007. peugeot1007-6034163566029448215.jpg so I can't decide.

    Yeah, Opel is waaaay better. The only thing old ones do is rust, and modern ones are just rebadged GM clones..
    I haven't seen a 90s Kadett/Omega in ages: all gone to the scrapyard. And the remaining ones double in value if you fill them up with petrol.

    French car made after ~1997...?
    No thanks.
    Before? Nice! Sure. For the most part...
    From the view of someone who actually works on this stuff from time to time i know how pathetic they are, they are on intention built to be confusing thus generally suck.
    Late model french cars are hideous pieces of shit, all of them.

    About the chiron, doesn't count, i doubt there was a single french person involved in the development. Its just a bugatti badge for the history and power of the name, nothing else, its all german.

    The same thing Heineken beer does. Pretty much nothing besides the general region of the world they come from.

    Everyone is always so enthusiastic about Heineken beer, but here in the Netherlands -home of Heineken- it's one of the shittiest beers around.
    I can't imagine what Budweiser would taste like then.

    Tbh, I had a Budweiser last week in an American restaurant over here in Heerlen. And it tasted just fine. Nothing fancy, just like Heineken, Amstel, ...

    To remain on topic: Currently thinking of slamming some 15" Speedline rims and the GTI trim on my 205. Will look much sportier + these are original Peugeot parts so I'm not making it a trashy car. Win-win.
