Most of the time when manufacturers take heritage photos they tend to use cars that have a common lineage. Not mix up all their wagons, sedans, coupes, and convertibles into one wildly confusing picture.
But then again Volvo included a P1800ES in their Volvo wagons lineage photo so apparently nothing makes sense anymore.

The P1800es is a wagon

Yeah but it ain’t the successor of the Amazon nor the predecessor of the 240...

Oh I didn’t look closely enough to notice the 145 was missing

However accepted the design of the 407 should get a swift kick in the nuts. This includes the person who thought it was a good idea to desecrate the 406 coupe with that hideous front bumper for its last year of production, as seen on your picture.

How the hell does a company manage to screw everything up with one mid-cycle facelift?

Am I like the only person who thinks the 407 is actually a good looking car?
Probably.

I will concede that it had its angles
but was totally insufficient in replacing this.

Agreed. Mine, for comparison.

The 407 coupe isn’t too bad in black imo.

It has its angles and is better looking than the sedan and wagon. Biased as I am I don’t think it can compete with its direct ancestor though.

Better look at the grille: (last weekend, winter wheels, Austria)

Ah, I love it on its winter wheels too! The 205 pepper shakers give it a totally different character—almost rally-car like!

And they forgot to include their best wagon ever. EVER!

Haha, of course I didn’t forget those, these are just not as epic as the 66!

Watch as they descend from classy Pininfarina-penned Franco-Italian masterpieces to guppy catfish...
