 Peugeot's "Passionate" 907 Coupé Concept   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
The 907 is a two-seater coupé, combining a large capacity engine within a classical shape reminiscent of the mid '60s Ferrari 275 GTB rather than classic French coupés from Bugatti, Delahaye and Talbot-Lago.
The wheelbase of the 907 coupé is 2.50 m, its length 4.37 m, its width 1.88 m, while its height culminates at 1.21 m — smaller than modern V12 coupés such as the Ferrari 575M, but lower, longer and wider than the classic 275 GTB.

 Peugeot 907 : News & Reports : Motoring : Web Wombat
With the 907 concept, Peugeot will gauge the public's reaction to such a vehicle, and if found to be favourable, the chances of the vehicle being built will increase - but this by no means guarantees its production.
The roof and front windscreen form a single glazed area, while retro-themed side vents are situated in the front wings and rear quarter panels, and a retractable rear spoiler is incorporated in the tailgate, as is a chunky air diffuser.
All told, the 907 concept measures 1.88 metres wide and 4.37 metres long, while a 1.21 metre height ensures that it cuts through the wind at high speed.

The stunning 907 concept has few antecedents, according to the loosely translated French dialogue we heard on the floor of the Paris Expo.
In fact Peugeot says this concept is only the second vehicle to wear the number 9 - the racing 905 of the early 1990s being the other.

Expressing Peugeot’s new alignment with sport, the 20Cup is an innovative concept, both « fun » and dynamic: suggesting an elegant synthesis between two worlds – that of the motor car by its front aspect and that of the motorcycle by its single rear wheel.
A new engine, the fruit of cooperation between the PSA Peugeot Citroën and BMW Group, is introduced by Peugeot for the first time at the prototype stage on this concept car: this turbo-charged 4-cylinder petrol engine with direct injection has sixteen valves and two overhead camshafts and is packed with ultra-modern technical features.

The Peugeot 907 is a GT coupé, 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.
As in the time of the great coachbuilders, this coupé embodies one of the finest engineering dreams of combining a large capacity engine within a classical shape, achieving a genuine synergy of advanced technology and motoring tradition.

It may seem strange, given that the company has no significant history of sports cars, that Peugeot's headline-grabbing concept, the 907, is a spectacularly muscular and extremely potent two-seater GT coupe, with big power and big personality.
And make no mistake—nose styling apart, this is another Peugeot with a lot of Ferrari style about it.
The 907 bristles with technology and styling touches, too—from a mainly carbon fiber shell to a glazed panel in the hood that reveals twelve polished engine inlets.

When Peugeot invited me to be the first journalist to drive its phenomenallooking 907 concept car, this was not what I had in mind.
When Peugeot says it's powered by a 493-hp V-12, it doesn't mean that would be the approximate output of the engine were it not a model made out of wood; it means it's got 493 hp and 435 lb-ft of torque.
I'm not ashamed to admit that my somewhat unorthodox introduction to the 907 meant I was a little cowed by the time I took the wheel.

In all, it feels like the basis for a great GT racer, and how wonderful it would be to see a brace of 6-litre V12 907s at Le Mans this year, battling it out with the two 6-litre, V12 Aston DBR9s.
For all its exalted specification, the 907 is just a concept car and, once the Peugeot PR machine has milked every last drop of coverage it can get from it, it will head for Peugeot's Sochaux museum and spend the rest of its life as an exhibit.
Besides, had Peugeot shown me to it at the Paul Ricard test track rather than on the roads around it, perhaps it would have been going even faster when we lost control.

The rest of the car has a decidedly Italian flavor to it, with nice detailing around the twin side pipes and louvers behind the front wheels and rear sail panels.
It only matters if Peugeot is planning an imminent return to the U.S. On either count, it's unlikely.
