The absolutely stunning looking Spyker C8 Aileron while finally be ready for production after the upcoming Geneva Motor Show 2011 next week. The delay in production of the C8 Aileron is caused by the relocation of the production facilities and the Spyker Saab takeover.

About a year ago the production facilities for Spyker moved from Zeewolde, the Netherlands, to Coventry in the United Kingdom. This spring the production of the C8 Spyker Aileron will start at CPP, Coventry Prototype Panels, that employed an extra 40 people for the production of the new Spyker.

The Audi V8 engine in the concept will be swapped for a GM V8, the engine we know from the CTS-V and the Corvette ZR1. We expect to see this production ready C8 Aileron in Geneva next week. The car was photographed today in a studio in Amsterdam and revealed by the PR manager on his Twitter channel.

Such a beautiful car!
About time production got underway.

 

Thanks for the post as always mate!

 

I love the look and I'm happy it's getting more power but it can't possibly sound as good as that high strung Audi 4.2L V8. The Spyker C8 is/was one of the best sounding cars out there, imo.

 

I would have chosen a EU more refined engine for that type of car.

 

It's so much nicer than the original cars, and doubly for the 4x4 monstrosity they made.

Hopefully it's a sign of nicer things to come from Spyker.
