I agree with KaBlookie that there are definitely some styling cues from the RC concepts in the design, especially in the rear. The rear flank of the car and the roofline resemble that of the 406 coupé, which I really like. The front is still a tad too long for my liking, but the vents just in front of the front wheels diminish that effect as opposed to the 407 berline. All in all I think it's a very good looking car, but slightly less than its predecessor, which is bound to become a classic like the 506 is nowadays.

Thanks for the pics guys. The Front is better than that of the 407 sedan, but it still has a distinctly "catfish" look to it. The car overall is quite nice, though the 406 was still a far more beautiful car.

Not bad, but the designers had an awful job on their hands trying to better the 406C.

They failed
