Interesting thread, well I buy lots of stuff, very little that would probably interest anyone in posting, but hey, just ordered some tires for my car...

Yokohama ADVAN Sport

Bought a few thousand dollars of baby furniture for my little boy thats due March 26'th '08, a nice "little" add on to the two girls...

Lets see what else, another IPhone for the wife, ummmmmm....

Ah ha got one for you that is not finalized yet, working a deal, but not certain if its the right move, but this is officially in the works...

2006 NEW SPYKER C8 with the HARD TOP ROOF.

Additional Photos

This is the actual car, at the actual dealership, only thing im uncertain of, is if i really want it. 400hp V8 Audi internal parts stickers at $298K I can get for around $80k - $90k less. Not sure that its worth the money, problem is theres a whole lot of other cars that i can spend $200k on that I like alot more, but everyone at the dealership is really nice and helpful, so I am still in the works.

Anyways this is my entry for this thread.

O.M.F.G. Alex...

I don't know if I have mentioned it before, but I absolutely love Spyker's. If you get that C8 - come to Canada and give me a ride!

The Spyker is a stunning machine!! Love the interior and exterior - of course there are a lot of other cars you can get for the same money, but this one is just so different - looks like a real sports car!!

Not to turn this into a thread about a car im interested in, but let me put it this way, its ONLY a V8 400HP, thought it ways about 3000lbs, still seems very underpowered for the money. Its a shame that there isnt more power to this bad boy other wise i might be more inclined to stroke a check.

Nontheless, in a few words, what are your guys opinions, likes, dislikes, thoughts, and if this is too much for this thread please let me know i will start a seperate thread and move the posts out of the way. Thanks, Alx.

I would never call this car underpowered!! It has nearly no weihgt, 1.3 tons or so...400 hp are more then enough in my opinion!!

I most like the interior here!! It's just awesome, leather, metal and then this great integration of the manual transmission!!

It's a stylish car, it has personality and power!

The interior is divine, in particular the seats are gorgeous,

The doors open elegantly and it has a retro-futuristic alure that is unique to the Spyker.

Take the control panel... how can you resist that machine-shop, one of a kind, hand made front? you can't

I could go on and on... but you get the picture

The purpose of a Spyker isn't really to drive it fast. It's automotive art imo, much like the Zonda. But not quite in the same league.

BTW, is that the only reseller in Atlanta that sells Spyker? Cos I think I've got one of their Spyker brochures
