The Spyker C8 Spyder T

The Spyker C8 Spyder T prototype makes its North American debut at this Concours, joining the list of supercars created by Spyker Cars of Baam, the Netherlands, as a twin turbo variant of the C8 Spyder.








In order to handle the increased output of the Audi V8 twin turbo engine (525 bhp instead of the 400 bhp of the standard Spyker) the Spyker C8 Spyder T has a wider track, extended wheel arches incorporated into the body and a small rear spoiler. The vehicle also has additional front wing louvres, sill louvres, and Koni's newest four-way F1 show absorbers. The rear-wheel drive Spyker T has a 6-speed manual shift and reaches a maximum speed of 199 mph. Interior options include a dashboard designed by acclaimed watchmaker Chronoswiss.

It is anticipated that Spyker will produce 25 of these hand-built cars prior to the 2005 race season.
