Question: why are peugeots not sold in the us?
Answer: Because the last Peugeot to be sold there, the 405, was a flop, selling no more than 4000 a year, although the 505 was used as a taxi and was adapted for the US market with different headlights and tail lights, which made it look hideous. Peugeot pulled out of North America in 1991 and hasn't returned since.
