    The car as a whole is very nice, but the outer shell is hideous. Needs an injection of serious design intervention.

    oh one of the early episodes where they still look ‘young’

  3. Riles07 says:

    Veyron uses engines powered by Audi…. as do the Gallardo and the Murcielago. The McLaren F1 used a BMW M motor, as does the Ascari. How about the Saleen S7? That’s made by Ford….not to mention Pagaini uses V-12’s made by AMG. Maserati and Alfa use Fiat V8’s…and for argument’s sake…so does Ferrari. Aston used Jag engines before Ford sold it. Land Rover still does use Jag V8’s.Lotus uses engines from Toyota, the little Ariel Atom is powered by Honda,the Koenigsegg CCR had a Ford engine too

    @rubberhoodie are you kidding me. that interior leather look similar to bentley

  5. bitsequence says:

    let’s face reality please. Spyker will NOT design its own engine and implement it in Saab. The most likely scenario is Spyker will use the best Saab engine. Pump it up to edge in terms of optimising. AND THERE YOU GO same story only better faster AND CHEAPER (the dutch way)

    @Sherpaa01 thank him for buying SAAB will you please?? ;D haha

  7. Kratos2591 says:

    @odinmp5 better hands than GM thats for sure lol it will be intersting to see what the come up with in future years im a proud SAAB owner by the way :)

    just look at the Spyker C8 Aileron dipshit, go hump a mustang! LOL :P

    I personally love the interior. It’s a lovely place to be. I’ve been in older Ferraris that have terrible interiors too – cheap plastic covered in cheap felt that comes away far too easily. Depends on what you like, of course! :)

  10. BEEFYBAYONET says:

    Hardly likely to happen owing to economies of scale. Why invest so much money when you can buy a perfectly good unit and alter it for your own needs?

    The new car market at the moment is severely crippled, and sales figures can of course influence what money can be spent on development. From SAABs point of view, I’m just glad the marque appears to have been saved.

  11. TheDaggelito says:

    This looks good for SAAB :-D

  12. rubberhoodie says:

    Let’s see if Spyker could form their own R&D team and see if they can develop their own engines or if they have to rely on third parties like Audi.

  13. rubberhoodie says:

    How the fuck could you praise the weird and cheap looking interior? It doesn’t look exclusive at all! Such an expensive car should look much better than that. The exterior however looks OK.

  14. haarlemmerolie says:

    only succesful peops can appreciate a spyker,bye bye loser

  15. haarlemmerolie says:

    your fazzer should have used a rubber!

  16. allaboard70 says:

    Why you wrote so bad, ongewoneshit?

  17. ongewoneshit says:

    spyker is shit, saab will be a write off in 1 more year

  18. odinmp5 says:

    i dont know shit about cars… but somehow i think saab is in good hands.

  19. allaboard70 says:

    Saab – Spyker :) Yeah !!!!! I am from Sweden and I really love the new concept. Great car makers in Holland and Sweden. Remember Volvo some years ago bought DAF !! But now Saab – Spyker will move on, and Rock on!

  20. matjz says:

    Beautifull car!!!. Classic but trendy, but the horn (5:25) is a bit strange :P

  21. hockey121412 says:

    I saw one at a car show a couple months ago.

    Probably the weirdest car I’ve ever seen, but nonetheless beautiful haha

  22. bazzebeest says:

    Wow that’s like super freaking cool!!! Go get a life.

  23. Sherpaa01 says:

    xoxo.
