Peugeot 907 Concept       Day to day dreams create different desires that fade or disappear as dawn breaks. 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 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.                                            Specifications       Engine                                      6 liter V12        HP    500 BHP       Displacement     6000 cc (366 cu in.)       Torque    --       Weight lbs (kg)    3085 (1400)       Acceleration 0-62  mph        --       Top speed    --       Driveline    Rear Wheel Drive        Price (approx)    -- The Peugeot 907 is a two-seater coupé, modern but also classic.
