2009 Spyker C8 Coupe Review
Spyker is a rarity in this period for the automotive conglomerate and decreased consumer demand - is an independent company that builds sports cars by hand. Spyker name comes from the late 19 th century, when it was connected to a Dutch company that builds cars and planes before the bankruptcy in 1920. In 1999, a pair of Dutch businessmen bought the rights to the name and started a new company that builds supercar tailored for wealthy enthusiasts.

Ten years later, in 2009 Spyker C8 Spyker debuted the first to be sold in North America.
2009 Spyker C8 range consists of three different models: the coupe C8 Laviolette C8 Spyder (soft-top version of the LaViolette) C8 Aileron and coupe. LaViolette, and Spyder is sold in Europe for some time, while the C8 Aileron is a new design and unique style, structure rebuilt and modernized, the long version of the C8 substrate. C8S All are powered by a mid-mounted 4.2-liter Audi V8 engine tuned to produce up to 400 horses, and all use a six-speed manual to save the wing, which is an optional six-speed automatic. About 3,000 pounds of C8 is also much lighter than most supercars extensive use of aluminum construction.
I was designed from scratch as an exclusive exotic sports car, Spyker C8 2009 seems really nothing else on the road. LaViolette and Spyder function of many details inspired by an airplane, from "Aeroblade" 19-inch wheels of the car and took a different sphere of air. Yet, the aesthetic highlight of the Spyker C8 is no doubt that the rich and elegant interior design stores. Highlighted in a full leather interior, brushed aluminum dash (request, turned aluminum), knurled aluminum knobs, and a return beam exposed wiring, C8 cabin does not seem out of place in art museums.
C8 processing of user data are certainly impressive, precise manual control, and the Lotus-tuned suspension is fully adjustable to a massive six-piston brake. And even though the Audi V8 is expected to produce relatively small, 0-60 h sprint in around 4.5 seconds, it sounds so good that buyers do not lose sleep, for example, the ability of the Nissan GT-R to drive another away from that time to a fraction of the price of C8. But let's be realistic: The main task of this car is its performance, but its craftsmanship and unique style. 2009 Spyker C8 Aileron is the pinnacle of cars in high fashion - you can imagine a second car, of which $ 5,000 Louis Vuitton set of tools can be defined? - So the impressive ability are likely to be perceived only as icing on the cake.

Interior Design and Special Features
Simply enter the 2009 Spyker C8 cabin is a deplorable practice, but too sweet. The button sends the scissor door hinge to the sky, one absorbs the active display technology sophistication. From the comfortable leather sports seats, aircraft-style red latch at the top of the power switch calls. Lift the latch, press the switch and press the start button, and the mid-mounted V8 engine fires to life. Look around the inside to reveal the same level of attention to detail, from fully exposed gear wheels available chronometer-style gauges. Extensive accessories and interior color combinations, C8S that no two are identical. Lamborghini with mud houses scattered by Audi / VW maneuver in these days and the Ferrari in the second half, but short of remarkable, Spyker C8 stands out from the inside in an exotic car sports segment.
Driving Impressions
Sweet and sensitive to the Audi V8, despite the Spyker C8 is not a machine that attracts you to run with other exotic. It 's fast, but not so fast. The management is another matter, but - the precise hand-to-point steering and feedback through the Lotus chassis, C8 is plenty of Moxie. Unfortunately, the price that the treatment should be the shape of the spine-bruising ride. C8 is not shaken, but you can ask your questions about the driver's seat, after a spell. To the credit of the Spyker C8, however, very rigid aluminum structure reveals the base color to zero and the sensation of driving enthusiasts will appreciate the close connection of moving parts, and the street below.
