    I think there was no Citroen presence in Melbourne at all!
    Sometimes I wonder at their capacity to market anything intellgently.

    The majority of people that buy Citroens are fans of the brand.

    Same for say SAAB and Lancia and a whole bunch of others.

    I repeat again, i WILL ONLY BUY A BRAND THAT HAS FACTORY RUN OPERATION IN OZ!

    Its called commitment!

    Could be worse, like a orphan brand, ie Proton!

    Wow. As owner of small fleet of Volvos, Fords, VWs, and BMWs, I want this C5 in California now! (better yet, the Autobahn). I will trek to Europe this summer to beg a drive at top speed topless (convertibles, please), even in a concept car. Prettier than anything here in USA, and a proposed hybrid to boot. Kisses to France, Luv Pandora (California).

    PS ~ This design company really does appear to have a marketing problem. They have had a solid car company for decades, great engineering no doubt there. The R&D budget is now appearing robust, but the company must balance new products with other global considerations (eco-friendly/hybridsm; multi-continetal dealerships to sell and SERVICE; changing currency exchange rates eg: USA prices) to succeed. ~ Pan
