The
Peugeot 406 V6 Coupe was a beautifully styled, adequately powered
touring sports car. To this day it remains one of Peugeot's
most attractive models, easily eclipsing the 407 Coupe in the
looks department.
The front wheel drive layout and slightly soft suspension show
that the 406 V6 Coupe isn't meant as a true sports car. Instead
it is best thought of as an easily affordable grand touring
sports car.
The gorgeous styling of the car is thanks to Pininfarina - the
same guys who style Ferrari's cars. Peugeot is obviously pretty
proud of this fact and the car wears prominent Pininfarina badges
just forward of the rear wheels.
The 3.0 litre V6 of the Peugeot 406 V6 Coupe develops a healthy
194 horsepower. This gives the car a top speed in excess of
140 mph and a 0-60 mph time under 8 seconds.
