That’s quite a fetching French hatch - but is it actually a hot hatch, or just a warm one?

Just a warm one atm, might make it properly hot later

Your cars are looking great!

This reminds me of the Venturi range (260, 300, 400) during the 1990s - they were powered by turbocharged versions of the PRV 90-degree V6 (as was its closest rival, the Alpine GTA/A610), so it would be natural to assume the Continentale is also powered by a turbo V6.

You assume correct, its a twin turbo V6. I tried to make it match the PRV as closely as I could

So is the Continentale’s V6 a 90-degree unit (just like the real PRV, Buick 3800 V6, and the Honda C30/C32 V6 used in the NA1/NA2 NSX, among other things, for a lower center of gravity) or a 60-degree one (for better balance and smoothness)? I’m expecting it to be the former.

Right again, its the 90 degree one
