Excuse me, I had to go rinse my mouth out after seeing this car, due to the terrible taste it left. I can honestly call that the worst eurotrash I’ve ever seen. You guys can drool over this over-indulgence all you want. Means more Ferrari and Lambo for me to lust after.

Seriously though, I’m happy someone likes it, but it is way over the top for my tastes.

This looks very similar to what a convertible Jaguar XJ220 would look like. I love it. If I could afford something like this, I don’t think the suitcase would bother me at all.

Spyker makes some of the craziest looking cars around, but at the same time they turn out to be the most stunning. I’d take a Spyker over a Lambo or Ferrari anyday.

james bond really should use this car instead of aston martin’s db9.

I see they don’t have the steering wheel that would act as a tomahawk in an accident…

I guess they made it with some passive safety features this time around. That’s disappointing.

What a beautiful, expressive, and inspiring piece of artwork. I love the overall philosophy of Spyker. The only complaint: I could have done without the trademark slogan on the tonneau lip.

Bosley, the quote translates to, “for the tenacious, no road is impassable.” I think the slogan fits better with the “Peking to Paris” concept introduced a while back.

Hmmm, seems I missed the small print in the article. I never knew there were words on the Internet, just pictures of cars or girls or both……

One of my favourite exotic sports cars. I always think the air intakes look like gun ports for a new James Bond car or something,….

The suitcase looks kind of weird, like a leather spoiler, sort of out of place.

And what does “Nulla Tenaci Invia Est Via” mean? …..”If you can read this, we’re not going fast enough”?

it’s a nice alternative to the usual suspects in it’s category. i like how they put their motto on the car.

This is a sigh of relief after Bentley unveiled the Mulsanne or whatever… Absolutely gorgeous car. Spyker definitely gets it right in the design department, and from what Top Gear says, it drives pretty well to boot!

Spyker makes some of the coolest interiors that money can buy IMO. I’m not a fan of the suitcase on this car though (looks out of place on the car), but hopefully removing that would give a much ‘cleaner’ look. But as far as cool cars go…gotta place Spyker right up there with Pagani. Their cars are utter beauty!
