I remember back when I drove the Peugeot 607 over a decade ago, it was the flagship model among French cars, featuring standard leather seats and air suspension that made driving feel like gliding on silk. Unfortunately, production ceased in Europe by 2008, and the last batch in the domestic market was clearing inventory by 2010—getting a brand-new one has long been impossible. You might occasionally spot one in the used car market, but most are over 15 years old, with severely aged electronics, especially that Siemens navigation system—repairs can cost more than the car itself. I know a few longtime owners who keep them as collectibles, though they often complain about refrigerant leaks in the AC compressor, with parts needing to be ordered from France, taking up to three months.
