Today I remembered why I bought a 4 speed 150HP french boat.

Because every single person on every single bus stop and street corner kept looking at it. I love my car.

Aww man, i really hope i can buy Citroen here in Indonesia. Especially the C6.

*Citroen Indonesia ceased operation in 1996.

4-speed because only 4 of the gears actually work or does Citroën still mount automatic 4-speeds?

I think that at least design-wise, this generation C5 looks a lot more high end than many German sedans. You ought to see a top trim one!

Too bad none of the French companies ever partner up with a US. My life lacks French cars

The dreaded AL4 transmission, then?

The only one available here, yes.

I'm not sure if they got that ironed out in later years, but the AL4-equipped Xantias had a terrible reputation for transmission self-destruction. Something to do with a cheap solenoid failing, resulting in expensive mechanical damage.

Citroën's relationship with automatic transmissions seems somewhat weird. The DS and CX only got automatics very late in their lives – Citroën preferred to use their own weird semi-auto designs that, although very clever, still required you to shift for yourself. It's almost as if they considered them an afterthought.

Really? Why don't we get Citroen goodies then in the US!

I guess most of them were, the french never really cared for autos.
