Citroen announces C-Crosser Exclusive PSP Edition SUV
Not a ton of details to go on here, but it looks like Citroen and Sony are set to team up on a PSP-themed version of the C-Crosser SUV. The C-Crosser Exclusive PSP Edition will come with a black PSP Slim, two games, a 4GB Memory Stick PRO Duo, and a special headrest speaker mount so rear-seat passengers can catch up on some awesome UMD movies. Europe-only, obviously, and those stickers won't come cheap -- prices start at €33,990 ($43,340.) A few more pics at the read link.

HaHa, NO!
I see a space under the 2 logos for a nice "FAIL" branding...
AHAHAH!
Wow now that's just stupid...
That is what happens when multiple personalities meet....
I am guessing it will also use the umd as a digital ignition key too?
this thing makes my C cross, and not in a good way.
PSP ftw!!
hahaha what the hell
They are trying to appeal to the Teenie Bopper market that are willing to drop 40g's on a lemon?
WTF?
whatever those marketing clowns were smoking... give some to the hippies!
Another piece of shit that does not work.
Ooh, I want some too!
what!?!?
failblog, anyone?
+1
Why would anyone want a Citroen, and then a PSP + UMD collection on top of that?
This is no more stupid than the Chevy Venture Warner Brothers edition with the flip down monitor...
Now a Chevy "Venture Brothers" edition would have been awesome! Go team Venture!
@wjousts
You are my hero!
I am sure there is someone out there reading this will wish for a trim like this stateside.
If there were a likely candidate for that it would be Ford since they were the first and only ones in 1994 to strike a deal with Sony that provided Minidisc dash unit in the Mustang with a top of the line at the time Mach 460 sound system.
As for me I find all of these 3rd party namebrand trims a ripoff considering one is paying more for what should be considered basically more extrovert advertising.
Wow, this is beyond lame.
You can't really compare Euros and dollars together, because Europe has heavier taxes on cars. So your quoted $43,340 does not convert directly.
What part of Europe? Some countries have no sales tax on cars, some have up to 100%. Talking about Europe as one country makes as much sense as grouping Mexico, USA and Canada together - it's that diverse.
Only the French.
ha, I'm just kidding guys. :P
blasphemy!
is this a joke? That can't be real.
This car is a complete joke. No, it is not bad althogh it is based on the same underpinnings as the Dodge Journey. The joke not even is that this is a badge engineed Mitsubishi Outlander. The joke is that this car is built in Japan together with the Peugeot 4007 while it's sibling, the Mitsubishi Outlander shifted production to the Netherlands. So the Japanese version is actually a European car while the European badged versions are Japanese cars.
The 2.2l PSA Diesel is not bad, BTW!
only in europe..
Fucking hilarious.
America has a recession and Europe has this. I think it's safe to say we are both equally screwed in our own ways
europe has a recession too.
the whole world does.
It's like Lennon said.
Couldn't have just gone with it guys?
"Give Peace A Chance?"
I wonder if it plays UMDs :P
"The C-Crosser Exclusive PSP Edition will come with a black PSP Slim...and a special headrest speaker mount so rear-seat passengers can catch up on some awesome UMD movies."
RTFA!
Apparently Citroen is a big fan of the Chicago Bears.
And the Cincinnati Reds.
Why would a PSP make you want to buy an overpriced piece of junk any more than usual? Not only would you get laughed at for driving a Citroen but also for bragging about having a PSP.
Yeah you're right no one drives in a Citroën nor uses a PSP.
well bouffon du ass, i have a citroen and have had citroens and I'll go ahead and laugh at whatever you drive as i cruise around in supreme continental comfort. sure nowadays they are just rebadged peugeots (all cars are rebadges of another car), but i'd still spring for C6.
however, PSP Citroen? I'll pass on that.
A fridge magnet joke imo
they're just trying to corner the pimp my ride market before xzibit does.
Sup dawg, we heard you had too much money, so we made you this.
Can we replace the psp with NES instead? thanks
Are they serious? It's 2009, and they still have to use wired earphones? Why not built-in bluetooth transmitter in the car so people can use their own bluetooth headphones?
This is all I will drive. Nothing else seems worth it. Best spend of $43,340 ever!
Sup dawg. We heard you like games, so we put a PSP in your car so you can overpay for this Citroen.
And by the way, how does this make any sense? Why would you let a free PSP with a $200 value have any effect on you paying $30,000 for a car? Should I be excited that I payed more for a special edition that comes with a free PSP? Could this be any more of a scam "special edition" car?
Why yes that PSP Citroen will go very nicely next to my Ferarri Segway. After all, my furnaces do not burn money fast enough.
Actually, a Sony branded car would be interesting. Not this crap though.
I am French born US citizen and even I have to say this is stupid, wow, I have to spend $43 grands just to get a PSP, which can be had at any electronic store, what a joke this is!
Man...companies must be getting really desperate to start resorting to this kind of crackpot co-branding.
But seriously...what in the world were they thinking?!
citroën (not citroen)!
free psp?? That's it I'm sold on the $44000 car,, NOT!!!!!!!how weak
April fools!! You got us Engadget!!! Oh shi-!
I like this Citroen Crossdresser!
I wonder if this could be retro-fitted onto my 2c4v
Pretty ridiculous if you ask me, Citreon do make good cars folks, quit the bashing. But this is cheesy and cringeworthy.
Please adjust your article to make it say Citroên instead of Citroen. Here in the Netherlands Citroen actually means Lemon and it is quite odd to read that some Lemon announces a car..
Like Citronela for the mosquitos
Free car with $44000 PSP?! Hell yeah! What, it doesn't come in Piano Black? Fugget it then
It really pisses me off that it's so hard for me to get a good job with the proven time and time again business insight that I have, yet ass clowns who come up with ideas like this are gainfully employed, and probably making a killing.
It truly is all about who you know, and not what you know. Clearly it has nothing to do with what you know. Just look at the state of the economy. The people running it don't know shit.
That's really pretty stupid.
I'd pay you an extra 100 bucks to remove all that bullshit, how's that?.
car name fail in french canadian, cause it can mean masturbation....
"Man...companies must be getting really desperate to start resorting to this kind of crackpot co-branding."
Indeed. It says as much about the hard times at Sony as it does of those at Citroën and PSA. One of the worst special editions ever. At least the 350z Gran Turismo had a unique colour and wheel upgrade and a gift-set of the game and PS2 in the boot.
What's next, a Nintendo/Volvo crossover?
Whoa boy. Doesn't this just scream "Hey, smash in my windows, I've got stuff to steal in here."
