What car is this? (Page 1/2)

I usually have a good eye when it comes to make and model of cars on the road, but I saw this this morning in mid-Michigan...and I have no idea what it is.

Didn't get a good enough look to see a badge ar emblem. Anyoneone else recognize this? Sorry about the low quality, but I just had time to grab my phone for a quick pic....

I believe that is it! I've never seen one of these. I did get a decent look at it when I drove by, and I think you are right. I looked up the Citrogen emblem, and I'm certain I did notice that on the car (didn't realize it was a badge or emblem, as it's fairly subtle).

Mystery solved! How in the heck did you recognize it?

I worked in Midland for a while and seen one or two around there.

When did you work in Midland? I worked in Midland for 3 years (2009-2012) and have seen some really nice cars, especially in the summer) I work in Saginaw now.

Did you ever make it to Fieros Forever in Sanford?

I haven't been in the area since 2004. The Sanford place was just a twinkle in someone's eye at that time Plus, I had all the parts I needed (stored up lots of them).

Citroens have always had that "odd" look about them.

I'm surprised there's even a running Citreon in the US.

It was in great shape too! I drove by it as it pulled off of a side street, it looked like new.
