Spyker C8 Aileron review and test drive

The Spyker C8 Aileron review and test drive is an understatement. The entire experience was more like a trip to heaven via gate C8. The C8 Aileron is a magnificent vehicle, every aspect is totally superb. The vehicle is hand made, but there are no flaws on this vehicle at all. Everything is perfect as if God himself built the car. The suspension is smooth yet aggressive, a perfect blend for a daily driver that is looking for a sporty edge. The curb appeal is omnipotent, turning heads every second as it graces the streets with its presence. The Spyker C8 Aileron experience brings both passenger and driver to cloud nine for a lofty rest upon Dutch greatness. 

Exterior

At first glance, all onlookers try to figure what this new breed of supercar actually is. Is it a McLaren, Ferrari, Lamborghini, Aston Martin; what is this thing? Depending on the speed seen it can resemble a low flying UFO or a graceful white swan amongst the ugly ducklings of today's vehicles. Speed and aeronautical resemblance combined with prestige of top dollar exotics is the feel a Spyker C8 Aileron gives upon it's first exterior impression. Extravagant chrome and polished aluminum create desire such as a rare diamond would have upon a collector. Perfect lines blended smoothly into the various crevices makes all drivers lust for it's exuberance. In other words, the exterior is perfect.

Interior

Just as glorious as the exterior suggests, the interior satisfies the thirst for luxury and performance in a perfect blend that only a company rich in heritage like Spyker can provide. The leather interior is completely custom from cows that are only exposed to cold weather, insuring no bug bites or other impurities within the hides. Artfully mastered, the interior features a blend of turned aluminum and custom leathers you would expect to see in a top dollar private jet. The aircraft history of Spyker is prevalent through out the interior. Accessorized with aeronautical style switches, a master on-off safety flip switch to activate the motor, and a unique gear selector brings the experience to a climax of confusion and desire upon entering the vehicle. All the gauges and switches are located perfectly within the driver's reach. A cockpit like feel consumes the passengers as they are whisked away courtesy of Spyker.

Driving impression

There could not possibly be a better combination of performance, luxury, and aeronautical heritage than what is found in the Spyker C8 Aileron. As the vehicle floats over the lumps and bumps of civilization, one is consumed with the prestigious heritage that only a company like Spyker can provide. This vehicle is more exotic than anything on the road today and will continue to be for time to come. A defined presence amongst other exotics, the Spyker receives all glory. A smooth yet capturing acceleration full of low end torque creates an enjoyable drive whether in traffic or on the long stretches of your favorite highway. The suspension and steering is flawless, no matter the camber or road type the C8 reacts accordingly. Plenty of power, presence, and prestige is the driving impression of C8 Aileron.
