@patina.research France is going through it right now, so I thought this would be a good time to highlight something the French do exceptionally well, or at least used to: build incredible cars. Take the Peugeot 907 concept, for example. It could have been Peugeot’s answer to the Mercedes SLR, Aston Martin Vanquish, and Ferrari 612. And you gotta admit, the 907 looked cooler than all of them, especially with those exposed ITB trumpets. Powered by a 6.0L V12 producing 500 hp and 620 Nm of torque, it weighed just 1,400 kg, could hit 100 km/h in 3.7 seconds, and had a claimed top speed of 300 km/h. Sadly, Peugeot only built one prototype and completely fumbled what might be the coolest car they ever made.
