It lets you hear what the three-pot engine thrashed from the outside when pushed moderately hard on the Nürburgring… until it stutters to a halt on the side of the track due to an unknown malfunction.

The Citroen C6 probably was the most unique-looking and striking European sedan of recent memory.
