Dude you've missed a lot of cool options when you talked for this car. The head lights are turning when you are turning the wheel. There is a sport mode for the suspension if you don't want to roll so much. When you gain speed the car automatically become more stable and the wheel - more direct. There is also sport mode for the transmission and a snow mode for it too. All the seats are heated including those on the back with a separate control for each one. I'm personally own the model from 2011 twin turbo V6 3.0 liter diesel with 240 hp. and the heads-up display can show the speed and navigation information together. It has also 10 gb hard disk for music storage and of course very good sound system with 12 speakers. And for the airbags, they are 8 in total and also covered backseat passengers. There are also other things like backseats cupholders, interior lights including such for the floor also. And the external lights you wander about are just for emphasis of car silhouette at night. But you are an American we can forgive you. 😄

I remember Jeremy Clarkson complained that the C6 wasn't weird enough, for a big Citroen. He said things like, "it's front wheel drive, when it should be side-wheel drive"

I love Citroens so much! Yes, they are weird and quirky, but in a charming way. They have so much character. They have personality. They were so advanced but in a subtle way.

Living in Europe, I love how Doug takes cars that are everywhere here - our everyday cars - and tells us how quirky and strange they are. I guess those terms are relative!

Citröen C6: "I'm the quirkiest guy around" Renault Avantime: "Hold my champagne"

As a Citroën C5 owner I can attest: Citroën has the best solutions for problems that do not exist.

I am french and I have this car. This car is the most comfortable car in the world (she has some awards for that, for real !). This car was not à big success, but in the future she will take à good value. 👍 I paid my car about 8% of it's original price (in good condition)

Doug, I own one of these. Along with a S 55, a 740 2000, and a Audi S8. The C6 is the smoothest to drive. It’s quite, cheap to run, it floats. The Head Up display DOES show speed and nav at the same time. Mines travelled 270,000 ks and is still a pleasure to drive.

Adding to what Doug already said (as a C6 and Vel Satis owner): - top tier versions had electrically reclined rear seats - xenon lamps move along with the steering wheel, enhancing visibility in the corners - hood has explosive materials near the hinges and in case of hitting a pedestrian they lift the hood few inches, providing a softer hit for the pedestrian - pneumatic suspension had a camera below the front bumper and it was helping determining how to damp a certain pothole. Additionally, the computers controlling the front axle were sending signals to the rear axle, so even if the front passengers felt a bump, rear seat occupants were even more insulated from any road imperfections Also, Doug - this weird rear window really helps with rain :)

When it comes to Quirks Citroen is hands down the winner ever time.

I bought it, because I loved the styling... Unless you drive with for a while, you won't understand the car... BTW - you could have speed and navigation on the head-up display... You could turn on sporty suspension for better handling...It was much more stable, just the huge weight was kind of issue in tight curves. The back spoiler was needed for high speeds stability... Tested the maximum on German highways - 242 km/h... Very impressive and still stable (with sporty suspension turned on)... Still pretty quiet, only wind noise from the frameless doors. Loved its 10 GB internal hard drive to load all my music there... BTW it was the first car in Europe to get homologation for daytime running lights (next to the front blinkers)... And for the tail lights - if you'd seen them in the dark, you'd know how efficient they were... Of course judging it in studio lights of museum doesn't show much... I know it is your style of videos, but maybe taking the car more seriously would show your fellow Americans that luxury car doesn't have to be boring comparing to its peers of that time, yet it can be functional and really make fun to drive... And yes, many cars from those days had pleeenty of buttons for all their features, because digital was not yet the thing...

One thing that Doug failed to mention about the Citroen C6 is that the wheel arches don’t protrude into the rear seats. Instead, the wheel arches are adjacent to the trunk; which I think it’s a clever design because it gives the rear passengers a more spacious, and less intrusive cabin. Also not mentioned, is that in some Citroens the steering wheel instantly centers itself each time after a left or right turn. But perhaps that particular 2006 Citroen C6 had a conventional steering.

Doug, you forgot to talk about some features, like the "active front hood" that the C6 has. This car has a special hood hinges with a pyrotechnic charge that in case you hit a pedestrian, rises the rear part of the hood to minimise the injuries to the pedestrian. This C6 also has directional xenon headlights, wich turns with the front wheels when you are cornering It also has frameless windows with laminated glass in all four doors

Citröen really lives up to its slogan, "Creative technology".

The ‘don’t power wash’ sticker - is not to stop people washing the engine, it’s to highlight the fuse box which you definitely should not shoot water into.

A lot of France is extremely dark with a lot of countryside and mountain areas. Keep in mind, while Paris is massive, most major cities in France simply aren't that big as American ones. So having a cluster of screens that can be dimmed or turned off except for the most necessary information helps a driver see better in the night in these areas as the light isn't brightly reflecting in their eyes and preventing from seeing through the windshield as well. It's like a silent safety feature.

Please do more non-German, non-British, non-Italian European cars!!!

As a french guy, I've been waiting to see this review coming out ever since I saw a snippet of it at the very beginning of one of your other videos, months ago during the Caaars And Biiids advertising thing. 😁 I'm sooo thrilled you've finally released this very awaited C6 review! As you said, the Citroën C6 is a very quirky car (even for us) and certainly one of the strangest of French cars! French makers were never able to compete with the Germans on the upper market segments, and the C6 is one of the biggest failures in the history of the French car industry. Only about 23.400 units were made during the entire production run, which is an insanely low figure. Shamingly so. The Renault Vel Satis was another huge failure on the same segment, and both models were on sale during (roughly) the same period of time. Both were good cars, but too weird to attract E-Class and 5 Series buyers. Of course, the brand names also did come into play, as Citroën, Peugeot and Renault are just mainstream manufacturers, far from the hype and the strong reputation of Mercedes, BMW and Audi. But still, you missed quite a few interesting features on the C6, and some things you've said are wrong. First, the wood trim is real wood. Then, the climate vents can be closed by just turning their wheel all the way down, which makes them go flush with the dashboard and kind of disappear (or blend in, if you will). Those other wheels you've turned on the sides of the center screen, they control the upper vents designed to redirect the airflow towards the windshield, allowing for a softer air conditioning experience (not to be mistaken for the windshield defroster, which is yet another thing). Then, the head up display can indeed display the speed, the navigation directions and some other informations, all at the same time. The higher trim levels were equipped with all-around double glazing for even better sound deadening, and with directional bi-Xenon headlights. Those higher trim levels could also come with optional electrically adjustable and heating rear seats (but then you would lose the folding capability). Did you notice that the "infotainment" system is the same as those you would find in a Fiat, an Alfa Romeo or a Maserati? That's because PSA and Fiat Group had a partnership at that time (they built minivans and commercials in common). And you also missed out quite a few important things in the suspension department. The 4 cylinder models came with an already sophisticated system, but the 6 cylinder models had all the bells and whistles in terms of suspension : the Hydractive with AMVAR (AMortissement VARiable = adaptive damping). This last generation of hydropneumatic suspension system is the most advanced Citroën has ever made, and it allowed for both high level comfort and excellent handling, although, of course, the C6 was no sports car by any means. It was "la pièce de résistance", truly a very refined suspension and a key feature of this car. But it was expensive to build, expensive to maintain, and Citroën no longer makes it. The C6 is the last big sedan Citroën has built in the true "Citroën fashion" with all its weirdness (and poor reliability), and even here in France, we don't get to see one all that often. But C6s in good condition, with low mileage and with the petrol V6 engine, are becoming more and more sought after, and their market value tends to go up! Some say that this car is a future collector! I almost bought myself one, but then... nah! I rather went for an E-Class, which is my daily driver and never lets me down. Anyway, thank you Doug for this great video! I can tell by the smile on your face, that you had a great time reviewing this very unusual car.

This car could come out today as a new model and still look modern and amazing

That audio control behind the steering wheel is very common for french cars, Peugeot and Renault also have it. It's actually very comfortable and easy to use once you get used to it. My dad had a C5 for 13 years and it also had a lot of the c6s features. I found the adjustable height of the suspension to be very cool altough if you raised the height, the car would automatically go back down if you drove above 50 kph. Also the dashboard was huge, it had like 8 dials and instruments. It also had a lot of equipment for a car from the early 00's like automatic wipers, rain sensors, automatic ac, a colled glove box... most of the stuff we can today get only as extra option and in top trim packages.

I think Doug missed a few features out. The C6 was the only car that combined Peugeot's AMVAR system with Citroen's Hydroactive system. The dampers AND suspension was adjustable, over 50 times per second. The wallowy ride is what gives it comfort... but if Doug pushed the "Sport" button, the dampers AND suspension would stiffen to give it far more cornering prowess... courtesy of it's all aluminium front double wishbones and multilink rear... with all aluminium subframes. This is to simplify the suspension, it's far more complex, the hydropenumatic system can actually reduce body roll massively when in sport mode and also helps you change a wheel too! Other notable facts is the car has cornering headlights, which swivel when taking bends. All the glass is double glazed to reduce road noise. The infotainment system will automatically dial the authorities and give the position in the event of a crash, which it even has a battery backup system! Of course, if you pop a simcard into it, then you have a full onboard phone too. HVAC system has individual automatic vent control for passenger and driver, which works superbly. There's far more but all I can think of right now. How doug drived it without pushing the sport button... is beyond me... this is a french car, the sport button actually makes it sporty, unlike modern german cars which just makes the exhaust louder!

The last true Citroën 😍

Accelleration low 8 sec 0-60, Doug gives it a 1 !!!, This car is 100% better than anything made in the US in its time. The cabin is one of the nicest places to be this side of an S-class while traveling across Europe. Doug just didn't get it.

I don't understand how this car is "weird", it has place for things in the doors, behind a nice little wood circle, thats better than any normal car, even by nowadays standards

With regards to handling, German magazine auto motor und sport did a comparison with the BMW 5 series, and the C6 was actually so much quicker on the test track that they felt the need to write an op-ed on how this is not a real Citroën any more what with all the sportiness. I've been owning a C6 for 11 years, bought new, and this car continues to amaze me. It's not built for traffic light duels, it's one of the best cars for long Autobahn or highway journeys. It does 240 kph, and at 160 kph my wife can still adjust her make-up, that's how good the suspension is. The styling is somewhat art deco with a theme of straight lines and half-circles plus citations from former styling icons in the Citroën family, like the DS, the CX, and the SM. I think it's gorgeous. It's a car built for the Citroën enthusiast, of which unfortunately there weren't enough. It does not have the aggression cars of that market segment usually display, it has elegance and understatement.

Doug: "Look how weird and quirky and French this is!" Me, a French person: "For a Citroen, this is quite a normal car. I would have loved a few more quirks." I really hope that Doug also reviews the Citroen Ami and GS that can be seen in the background!

It is the empress of the road, I own it for 12 years, covered big distances without backbone ache and with no dizziness after driving for 6 hours in a row. Just overhauled it and I would not exchange it for my wife's newest S90. It is still a head turner. Wow wow 👌

I had a 1991 Citroën XM. It had a fun feature. You could diagnose the car using the radio. It worked like this: You had to tune the radio to a channel called Radio XM. And then start to drive, use the brakes, turn this way and that way and do all sorts of things. And the radio would tell you if things were working or not. It was like listening to a modem, sort of. And when you for example accellerated the sound would change. I think that the radio diagnose was connected to some magnetic valves or what it is in the hydropneumatic system which controlled the steering, gearbox, brakes and suspension. And you could listen to the radio to hear if those thing gave the right sound or not indicating if it worked as it should or had errors. Anyway it was very fascinating and very quirky. Probably very useful and very innovative in those times before computer diagnosis was invented. Citroëns are by the way wonderful cars! I now own my third Citroën.

I've never heard a more funky seat belt chime in my life. Had me grooving.

The highest setting on Citroën hydropneumatic suspension also means you have zero suspension. It becomes rock hard at that level. About reliability: Citroëns suspension was actually quite good. They held together way better the just about any air suspension out there. My twin brother is a Citroën nerd.

I had one for two years. Flawed but also perfect at the same time. Hates twisty roads but loves the open road. Great seats, especially the back seats. Hydractive suspension is even more comfy than modern air suspension. Most comfortable car I ever drove in, love this car.

I think it's a great, great looking car. Too bad they don't sell these in Canada anymore. Great review Doug. Keep up your great work.

There's a lot of similarities between this car's styling and this new age of electric sedans. It was truly ahead of its time.

I owned one of these in rural England and Doug, you do this version of the Hydropneumatic Activa III Suspension a real disservice. It had the ability to dynamically stiffen the suspension and roll bars to improve cornering over versions of the suspension seen in previous models such as the CX, BX and XM. Couple of quirks you missed: Swivelling headlights with the steering. The suspension makes it easy to change the (massive and expensive) tyres. Full height on the suspension, insert jack, couple of turns and the wheel is off the ground.

I was a big fan of the old Citroën XM, which was very futuristic for its time, and the C6 is a worthy successor.

Cracks me up that in a country that dreamt up Plymouth Prowlers,AMC Pacers,and 50's land whales(that indeed resembles finfish)this gets called "weird looking from the outside".Many French cars looked gorgeous(Citroen DS,SM,CX) ,Panhards,looked gorgeous to me.And I thought the ultra reliable Peugeot 505 I was fortunate enough to own was very handsome,if more conventional.

That "hidden" door pocket is so good I'm surprised more companies don't implement them into their cars. This would look so good in something like a RR or a Bentley.

The C6 is on more example why I consider Citroën as "Art on wheels" 😀

Doug, you are definitely wrong about your appreciation of the handling of this car. Citroens are renowned for being always glued to the road, and this is also true with the C6. You can take turns at very high speed and the C6 will negotiate them without any problem.

Had one as a rental in the mid 2000s in Spain. Excellent car with outstanding fuel economy.

Doug has been incredible this year, really stepped up a level, if that was even possible. Keep it up Doug!

This car is a masterpiece, truly unique piece of engineering

I love this car. I wish I had it

If I may add something about the variable hight suspension that , at least in the 2 Citroen reviews I have watched so far, is the advantage of NOT needing to be jacked up to change a wheel. That involves the following sequence: Loosen the nuts, raise the car to full height. insert the jack or block, remove and exchange the wheel, start to tighten the wheel nuts, remove jack or block, lower the car, tighten nuts fully. Job Done. Advantage is no need to crouch or lay down to find and locate the jack - certainly an advantage in rain or snow.

An audio stalk was the de facto norm in all French cars of the era. Actually, I can't remember any early 2000's Frenchie I've owned that didn't have one!

I never clicked in a Doug video so quickly. This car is certainly weird, but it's so weird that is cool! I live in Portugal and even here is a rare even seeing one. But when I do, oh boy it's a treat. My father has a C5 from the same era and the pneumatic suspension makes it the most floating in a clowd veichle I ever been

Being a native of Morocco 🇲🇦 whenever you review a Citroen, it’s an instant nostalgia trip to late 80’s early 90’s (your CX25 review). In 2006 this car’s replacement parts were typically pretty expensive and hard to find.

I think its awesome! Much more fun to be different than drive a BMW or Merc (yawn). The taillight assembly may seem to be weird, but they can delete the roof/body weld, which either has to be ground down and filled, or have a cheap looking bit of plastic covering it, as you find on some cars.

I am extremely happy seeing the C6 get a review. From seeing it in a small bit during one of those Cars & Bids bits, i have been waiting daily for this video to pop up. Keep up the great stuff, especially from the Lane Auto Museum.

I cannot wait for the day when Doug reviews a Renault Avantime

I have always admired this car. In my opinion, one of the most beautiful sedans ever.

I think my family went to the lane motor museum. The massive amphibious vehicle, the only in the background of your filming, a car with a bubble interior, and the narrowest car- could even fit through a doorway.

14:38. This is perfect. I hate it when my kids fight over the cigarette lighter.

Minor corrections: - The climate vents: the top mounted wheels are for the draiftless air dome behind the entertainment screen which was a major advertising point, if you want to close the normal dashboard vents, you just turn the wheels next to them all the way down, they shut like blinds. -The HUD can display speed and navi info at the same time, the navi stuff is situational though, it just shows them when you cycle through the modes. -the dark button also kills the dashbaord lighting on the highest setting, great feature. Also, yes, the chime gets louder and louder.

What he leaves out is the 65mpg with the diesel, and the fact that they have a 2liter 4 cylinder diesel with 201hp and 380ft/lbs of torque. I like luxury cars, I really appreciate a smooth riding, easy going car with a diesel motor that is quite, effortless and gives great fuel economy. Plus it's front wheel drive which makes good in the snow and gives it a lot of interior room. Honestly these french cars are to advanced and sophisticated for americans to understand

The rear side running lights are for backing out of typically small French garages and driveways that are flush with walls sometimes right on the medieval street. Very useful for leaving at night.

Despite how weird the styling is, the interior actually looks quite nice and the technology is impressive even for today's standards.

THISSSSS….was the moment I’ve been waiting for

Just got back from spring break and I had my parents stop there, which was a no-brainer. LOVE that place. So many cool cars and amazing building.

Hi Doug, I had a CX a long time a go. That was also the top model of Citroën ('70 and '80) and had the same suspention. The high and low level is not intent for driving, that is to change a weel. If you have a flat tire you put the car in the upper position, then you put the jack under the car at a special point and then you put the car in the lower position. The car goes down and the weel near the jack will lift of the ground so you can change it. When done you do the above in reverse order and the car is ready to go.

I love when Doug reviews "normal" European cars. For him being American everything is weird lol

At least to European eyes, this car is sleek, stylish and for 2005 futuristic. Yes, most people were not willing to spend big money for a Citroen and that rear may now have dated, but what a handsome beast indeed. A friend's dad here in the UK had its predecessor the XM. Your scoring was unnecessarily harsh IMO.

I owned one of these for a couple of years. A fantastic car and probably my favourite. I love the design. Mine was a 2.7 twin turbo diesel. Such a beautiful car to drive in the country. Main problem was it cost a lot to keep it on the road as parts were very expensive. I really miss mine but not the workshop costs.

I wish Doug did a night 🌙 time full interior/exterior light example of all his reviews!

The Doug score was not right, -4 Styling? this car is truly timeles and beautiful; 3 Handeling?, no it isnt a sportcar, however you didnt talk about sport mode. That siffer tbe suspension/steering Less cornering etc - 5 for features? You missed on a lot of stuff. Like a lot op peple addressed in the comments, the airback under the hood for pedestrian crash, dubble glace windows, moving lights, active roadscanning for better suspension, heated seats, buildin harddrive for music, etc etc. 7 for comfort? The hydro pneumatic suspension eats speedbumbs for breakfasts, and is superior on the highway. Should at least be a 8.

I think what Citroen does is truly remarkable. It's like they're constantly throwing new ideas on the wall but they don't wait to see if something sticks, they just keep adding new ideas and removing old ones. It's almost like they don't care about capitalizing off their innovations, they just want to innovate for the sake of it.

Style 4 ???? Dude you are wrong!! I am an automotive designer and I saw the development of the C6 and its concept, it is incredible

It's a beautiful car. One of the most beautiful I've seen. It's a classic collectors item now. Love it.

The last Citroen. Well put. Marks the end of an era in which cars still had character, and unapologetically so.

I remember these well. They had a very unique design language which was a total departure from what they were doing at that time with their other cars. Also, note the square rear doors. And how there is no wheel well protruding in the opening making getting in and out way more comfortable.

The Citroen hydromatic system also assists the steering and brakes. In addition, the Citroen C6 has the latest version of this system that does not need to be replaced since it has multiple membranes in the spheres. It is also used to replace the wheels when you suffer a puncture since you only have to raise the suspension to the maximum, place the support and then lower it, simple as no other. It is also an addition to safety since if you are on the road and you puncture a tire, the car tends to stay level, preventing you from losing control of it. a failure in sales but a great car, the model you showed with the beige interior is one of the 1500 that were made with that color. Less than 25,000 were made in total from 2006 to 2012.

I have the C6’s predecessor, the XM. The early XM’s were properly weird, which Citroën eventually toned down. I also own a Citroën BX 16 Valve Gti.

The more you look at the C6, the better it gets

Just bought one, because of your video. Didn´t even knew about it before. Now i am a proud owner. It is a incredible car! Thanks fpr sharing!

Engineers : How many quirks do you want in this car? Citroen Head: Doug Demuro

Hi Doug 🖐. Citroën C6 is a very nice car. I live in France and the car is, or was, very popular with Taxi. It is constantly used as an elegant Uber VIP passenger limousine for example. Great video, Merci 😅

‘Wrong’ about the air vents’ closure, Doug; the edgewheels that you referred to are to control the ‘Air Curtain’ airflow - a vent that deflects HVAC air off the windscreen via outlets atop the infotainment screen “hump”. The face level vents are shut off by rolling the vertical flow slats all the way downwards… 🤗

I think this car was cool not only in 2006, but also today. Think what it was like in 2006 when you had a HUD, and you had a saab-like "night mode" which was pretty cool.

Love it when Doug decries the warning sounds.

I absolutely love the C6! It’s such a cool quirky car!

Would love to have a Doug museum for educational purposes 😀

I love Citroen for all it's quirks & features. Fun fact I slept on the rear parcel shelf as a child when we toured Europe in the late 80's, might explain my attachment to them.

As a European, it’s always fun to see the American take on some of our weirder cars. Great video as usual; also liked the one on the Xantia. But, for another weird cool French car, could you find the Xantia’s big brother (and C6 predecessor) the XM? Also. If you want to go to the holy grail of weird French cars, then I’d truly love if if you could find an example of the utterly bizarre Renault VelSatis (another big luxury car driven by French presidents… except this one looks like a box)… and, the ultimate last word in oddness, the Citroen Aventime; a concept car that they just went ahead and actually built for production - these latter two even make the Fiat Multipla you reviewed look normal. There you go Doug, that’s your challenge! 👍🏻

I cannot agree with Doug about the suspension system. Actually, it's extremely simple and reliable, if you think about it and learn how it's designed. It's a technological marvel.

Citroën's hydropneumatic suspension was the one great differentiator for the brand. Too bad they don't care anymore.

It's like having a big daft 5 year old in the car. That Citroen is gorgeous, the only 'weird quirky' thing in there is Doug DeMuro

21:50 its also worth mentioning that the headlights rotate in the direction you turn the wheel

I think Doug would be crazy over Renault Avantime

I've dropped EVERYTHING and clicked on the notification INSTANTLY when i saw the c6

"It actually gets unusually high" just like whoever designed it! XD

I sometimes forget that NA doesn't get the french cars. It was so weird seeing Doug wonder the third stalk for radio control, when pretty much every PSA group car had the same stalks. (My most basic trim level '05 307 has the exact same stalks)

Citroen is one of the most innovative brands across the automotive landscape. I wish the DS had remained in production to the present day. Same goes for the SM. One of the most fantastic GT cars ever produced.

My Renault Clio from 2016 has still a lot of those features; stock for audio (works great!), dark-modes, seat belt alarm gettin' louder. We had that kind of 3 point belt in our Renault Scenic. The DS 9 is Citroen's new C6.

Doug, small explanation about the orange part of the lights (both front and rear): they are what you would refer to as side markers in the US. Except that in Europe, they obligatory have to be both orange when your vehicle isn't wider than 2,00m. This to distinguish with lorries and any other vehicle wider than 2,00m who are allowed to carry "positional" lights (white to the front and red towards the back) on all corners of the vehicles and repeated on every 3m of the side of the vehicle (i.e. a trailer). Also the different positions of the suspension: you can indeed lower the car, but once you exceed a certain speed (30kph), it will return to normal riding height. It's only above 160kph that it will lower itself again about 2cm to improve aerodynamics. The "medium" high position is indeed to get over rough terrain as you say, but the highest setting (incredibly stiff also) is in fact another "quirk": you can actually change the wheels without a jack on any hydropneumatic equipped Citroën and (one of their USPs that they used in their 70/80s advertising = you can even drive it on 3 wheels, the suspension will keep the bodywork level at all times). As for maintenance: you'd be surprised to hear that the hydropneumatic suspensions didn't need any major maintenance before 200.000km. And even then, most of it what needed to be replaced where the height sensors for the leveling system. You mention body roll, but in fact, every C6 was equipped with Hydractive 3+ suspensions, which should make the car corner flat and adapt the suspension thanks to the camera scanning the road forward. I believe with the car sitting in the museum some calibration might be needed...

I would've honestly given this car a 7, or 8 in styling. I absolutely love how it looks

For Doug everything innovative is 'weird'. I'm sure that if there was a Doug back in the 1900's he would've called having an engine instead of horses 'weird'

Wait what! It has the same quirky cup holder as in Saab 9-5! And the DARK button does same thing as the Nigh Panel button in Saab 9-5! Superb!

Dude! you're so passionate and enthusiastic about cars!

The third stock on the steering wheel is pretty common in french cars of 2000-beginning of 2010. The seatbelt alarm too. And you should try letting the key in the neumann while openning the door while the car is off. In the high setup, your speed is limited. The grill is also found in all the citroen lineup of this era

I don't recall having seen anybody gesturing so extensively when they talk. The whole car rocks from side to side.
