C8 Spyder
The Spyker C8 is a sports car
produced by the Dutch automaker Spyker Cars.
The C8 Spyder is the original base
model with an Audi 4.2 litre V8 engine giving the car
400 hp (300 kW) and a top speed of 300 km/h (186 mph).
The C8 spyder T has a more powerful Audi 4.2 litre
V8 twin turbo with 525 hp (391 kW) giving it a top
speed of 320 km/h (199 mph).
The C8 Laviolette has
the 400 hp (300 kW) Audi engine but unlike the spyder
models that come with either a soft or a hard top,
the Laviolette has a glass canopy.
The C8 Double 12R
is a version made specifically for the 24 hours of
Le Mans also using the Audi V8 engine with 480 hp (358
kW) and the C8 Double 12S is the street version of
this car which has the same glass canopy of the Laviolette
and optionally has a 600 hp (450 kW) engine instead
of the 400 hp (300 kW) engine from the C8 spyder, giving
it a top speed between 300 km/h (186 mph) and 345 km/h
(214 mph) depending on the engine. Both Double 12 versions
have a modified C8 spyder frame with a longer wheelbase
and a bigger fuel tank, 100 litres instead of 75. |
