Citroen's have been interesting to me for their dare-to-be-different approach. I think of the "Duck cars" 2CVs with the sound of the two cylinders thumping around villages, the magnified bathroom scales gauges (barrel or cylinder gauges), shifter coming out of the dash that looked like the door release handles on american school buses and the one spoke steering wheels. Ah, the memories! The DS was very innovative and the HY truck was just plain cool looking. The Cactus is catching my eye these days for its aero.
I think the CX has a more grown up business like style to it. How's the ride quality? The approach angle on the chin makes me think it has a lot of lift at speed but I bet its smooth as butter going down the road. The headliner, however, is giving me post traumatic stress after redoing my old Jetta's liner twice.
