Citroën is bringing back its exclusive DS line of cars. First with the DS3, as featured in this article, but later with the DS4 and DS5. And, it looks really impressive, especially considering these very artistic photos.
The Citroën DS line is mostly known for its highly futuristic car launched back in 1955, which completely revolutionized the automotive industry at the time. The new DS line is probably not going to be as spectacular, but will rather be a supped up version of the C-series.

It looks like an overgrown panda , where are the nice clean sharp lines that citroen are known for . It appears to me as if its trying to resemble a 4x4

...the guy behind the new C5 is ex-Audi, which clearly shows. This looks like a mutant between that and the C4. Hmm, and the C6 is so cool...pity.
I used to be carried away by cars and automotive world. In hundreds of makes and models I would always return in my thoughts to Citroen considering its effect on modern art, culture, architecture. No matter how good or bad the business part of the company performed, it's influence is bespoke.
* DS for example. So many years have passed and it still inspires (check out otaniryuji.com).
* 2CV. A bunch of people not only enjoying a city ride, but is making transcontinnental voyages (http://ultimahora.publico.clix.pt/noticia.aspx?id=1328278&idCanal=62). The article is about my good friend from Portugal.

P.S. Sorry if this comment is a bit tardy. But I felt like I should say something on Citroen.

In the first picture and the second to last one, it resembles a Mini a lot.
