Had never heard of this bad boy. Wonder what her performance specs are---the article doesn't specify. They picked the right powerplant, though!<ul><li><a href="http://www.netcarshow.com/spyker/2009-c8_laviolette_lm85/">http://www.netcarshow.com/spyker/2009-c8_laviolette_lm85/</a</li></ul>

Default Spyker has been using this powerplant for a few years now in the C8 Spyder

The cars are fast because they're feather light. 0-60 in 4.4.

I think they make ugly cars, but, to each his own...

yeah, i think they're a bit over the top, but it wouldn't stop me from driving one.

Default One bad-*** ride, tho, ya gotta' admit!

I agree their color combo is less than desirable, with the right paint scheme (silver, of course) she'd be a beaut!
