    Congratulations Mark. Good to have another owner in our midst.

    Do you have any pictures of your Spyker next to your Panamera?

      Hi Mark,

      Congratulations! Below is a link to the 2010 Miami International Auto Show. #234 is exhibited next to #228, my silver Laviolette, that I purchased in December 2013.

      Have fun and enjoy your new car!

        That is a lot of foresight

          Hi Rijk,

          Roger that!

          When I was on my jog this afternoon, for some reason I thought about "...purchased in December 2014" and knew I'd made a typo. To sort these kind of things out, I've been gathering empirical data on whether it's the red or white wine that results in said blunders. When my study is complete, I'll let you know the results. Until then, "CHEERS"!

                  Ok guys, with my aerospace background we were taught to focus on facts, data, and process. Let's start by recording the type (reds or white) and volume (round-up to the nearest liter) that we consume each day. OR, we can scrap the whole idea of metrics and just have fun. I bet I know your preferences:lol:

                    As an architect, I'm better at proportions than absolute numbers...

                    Even more important, it's quality over quantity:lol::lol::lol:

                      My feelings exactly. And that's why we own Spykers!

                            Good morning all Spykers! Sorry for being gone so long. Didn't realize it had been like a year since being on here. Work was extremely busy last year and first quarter this year. Not any more. We have slowed greatly at work. That's okay. Nice every now and then to breathe. We did some traveling also. Hope all are well.

                              We were missing you.

                              The SpykerOwner website has been laying low while all the financial complications were sorted out at Spyker. Now with a clean slate, and a bright future, you can see more activity on the site.

                                image_18644.jpeg Greetings,

                                I would like to introduce myself as the very proud new owner of #234. I have been lurking on this forum for quite some time and have come close on some other C8s but my patience has paid off with this beauty. A huge thank you to Dawn and Mark who were so amazing during the transaction. Also to Chris Mora for his efforts in getting the car done up exactly how I wanted her. Finally to Rijk for helping me during my early search and educating me about the brand. I look forward to many great miles of Spyker motoring ahead!

                                Best,
                                Dave
