Post Spyker C8 Aileron to Make US Debut at Pebble Beach



Spyker will once again grace the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance with its presence making it the eighth consecutive appearance at the show, since it's rebirth in 2000. This year the specialist marque will bring the Spyker C8 Aileron, an all aluminium concept that previews the second generation C-line sports car.

The long wheel base model is making its first appearance on US soil, under the hood is a powerful 4.2 litre V8 producing 400 BHP position in the middle of the car giving the model superb weight distribution. The C8 Aileron is set to go into full production by the end of the year. Joining the LWB C8 Aileron at the show will be the C8 Spyder and a C8 Laviolette.

Sick looking car. I could definitely see myself scoring with some hot Swedish supermodel in one of those...

I love these cars. Like works of art on the road. I heard they don't perform very well though. Anyone here have any real world experience with Spyker?

I don't know, maybe it's just me but I am just not feeling their cars.

Cheap move to use the RS4 wheel, kinda ruins the interior for me.

Also, 400 hp? Come on they've got to do better than that.

Hmm, well I used to model... If you get the car I'll think about it. Might be worth a ride in the car - although I'm pretty sure my GF will have questions.

What happens in the Spyker stays in the Spyker.

On a slightly more serious note, that car is jewellery on wheels. Amazing. Love the interior - except the wheel. But that shifter makes up for it big time...
