Some people who have not seen the Peugeot-406 Coupe may say that this is only a two-door modification of the famous 406 model, but this is completely wrong. Two cars have only the same platform, while the rest of the details are very different.
The coupe, despite the presence of only 2 doors, is longer than his brother Peugeot 406. Feedback from drivers who had the opportunity to ride on two models said that they were completely different cars. This time, the Italians, who are long-standing partners of Peugeot , took up the design of the coupe . They managed to achieve an amazing effect. The new model can compete with the grandees, to which the sedan version was like before the moon. Even the designers themselves admitted that they did not expect such an effect from the new model. Interestingly, the Italians, in a reminder of where the car was developed, left an autograph of their atelier in Italy.
But you can admire not only the exterior, but also the interior of the Peugeot 406. Reviews of happy owners about the feelings inside the cabin are equally positive. Sergio Pininfarin paid much attention to the ergonomics of the driver and passengers. All details inside the cabin are made logically and intelligently.
All that is needed is at hand with the driver. I would like to single out this moment, because when transferring to the old model, you understand that there are a lot of imperfect details in it. It seems that everything is out of place.
And even the fact that the car has only 2 doors does not spoil the whole picture. This can not even be called a disadvantage. Climbing into the rear seats is very simple.
The driver's seat is made in good faith, because it accounts for the main load. Manufacturers turned to the reparo company Sear, which produces very high-quality products. This option is perfect for the perfect Peugeot 406 Coupe.
The front panel has not changed much compared to the sedan. The load was slightly reduced by the elements of the central panel, the dashboard became more concise. But at the same time there are details that add a missing touch of sport - a chrome-plated stroke of the instrument scales and an aluminum gearshift lever, decorated with a leather knob. Few people may not like to drive such a Peugeot 406. Owner reviews about this car are simply admired, and this is not an exaggeration.
All these praises fade when you start to press the gas pedal. It seems that you have been driving a Peugeot 406 Coupe all your life. Riding in it is fascinating from the very first seconds of movement. Excellent dynamics, handling, comfort - you get real pleasure from the car. I want to get to the rally and try what he is capable of. This is the car you want to drive. He is 100% in the power of the driver, succumbing to all his whims. Quickly changes its position on the road. One gets the feeling that you are driving the perfect car, when at a speed of 140 km / h you can perform almost any maneuver on the road. It’s very boring to drag on a car with such potential along busy roads. The most difficult thing is to switch to another model after such a pleasant ride on the Peugeot 406. Reviews of the owners of this wonderful car can easily confirm this.
