The Envious Peugeot 907
January 24th, 2007
Day to day dreams create different desires that fade or disappear. Sometimes, they leave a strong impression but often, only a memory remains of the dream, nestled deep in one’s sub-conscious. Stylists, engineers and designers from different generations, all have these dreams. They, however, can turn their dreams into reality; they can express their dreams through their designs.
As a group, they enthusiastically swap ideas, discuss concepts and agree on the particular ideas. The Peugeot 907 is the result of such a dream. It is a GT coupe, created with reference to the past, the present and the future. This is the archetypal touring car, discreet, but processing a sculpted and elegant shape, luxurious on account of the choice of materials it incorporates, and also extremely sporty as a result of its styling and its unrivalled engineering credentials.
