hehe... its not 'no taste' its differing taste i think the new one looks o.k. and if it were RWD... it would be well chilled, no doubt. the old one, it just doesnt do it for me; i know its a great car at what it does... mabey the combination of its looks, and absurd practicality is what kills it to me.

in any case... when i checked the cool wall, and refreshed 4 times, each time it was only in the uncool section so i had no need to cheat

Unlike the C5 this one has a bit of personality, its style is quite original and we can't really blame them for that. But still, it's way too expensive (starting price around 45.000 € or whatever ... too much for a Citroën, even as an A6/E Class "rival")
I sat in one of them at the Frankfurt car show, the interior looks better than their standard quality but some parts look really cheap and will not last forever

The front looks good to me and it's different (something that french cars have forgotten those years, especially Citroëns) so it gets a cool(-)

A step in the right direction for citroen, given all the rest of their cars look like crap.

Not enough to make cool.

See what happens when I see the car on the street, because the pics could create some confusion to me; in addition im not very updated with its features and specifications, so ill wait to the magazine tests and to see it in the street, and see whats my opinion about the car; however....once citroen sorts out the original cars in a satisfactory way such as citroen CX, DS, XM, GS, SM,.....im confident that the car will be cool.....naturally it will be much better sorted in terms of design and taste than the renault vel satis or the BMW series 7

Cool. Design stands out, fits well with Citroëns heritage. Much better than any random 7-series or other bland german ubersedans....

I love big, luxurious Citroens like the XM, SM, etc. These things come packed with technology even the dealers don't understand and are years ahead of their time, so they still feel modern two decades later. It gets a cool vote from me, only because it's not quite as over the top as the original DS.
