Shifter paddles behind the steering wheel! Very interesting...

They are standard when you have the automatic gearbox.

To bad the hi-res gallery on the Spyker website isn't working...

cool very modern and classy look, I think it will appeal to a much bigger audience which is very good given the current economic situation

I can see Vladimir Antonov in the last picture of the unveiling pictures. If I were him I would be tempted to enlarge my stake in Spyker, at the current low prices. Maybe that will be over soon, once the press gets hold of the C8 Aileron?

I love it! First I had to get used to the more bulky nose and rear side of the car…but the longer I look at it the more I like it.

Nice comparison:

I think it turned out GREAT!!! My favorite part is the new headlights, they look so good.

I prefer the wheels on the prototype......

The wheels under the production car look smaller.

The production car looks much wider. I have to get used to the bigger outside mirrors. The wheels are definitely a big improvement.

Notice that Spyker is not using the seats from the prototype model but the seats as used in the swb models.

AX can you make a similar “comparison picture” viewing the rear side of the car?

I think the wheels under the production Aileron look smaller because the overall body is wider. The wheelbox stands out more on the prototype….I do prefer the more cleaner look of the production wheels.

The (blades of the) wheels of the prototype look more 'closed' than the (blades of the) wheels of the production car.

Also the production car is a lot 'fatter' than the prototype. This can be seen because the wheelarches of the prototype have a bent in them and the arches on the production version are smooth. It is 'filled' up from the inside.

I will try to find 2 pictures. Did you guys also notice that the airtubes changed a lot?
Also the frontwindow is a lot longer (is seems) and the line of the roof is different. And you should also look at where the bodywork of the nose stops. Just follow the seams. Every piece of bodywork is different!

Here you can compare the sides.

And the backside of the Aileron.

my only reservation are the LED's in the lights at the front, the lights on their own are really beautiful but the LED's are making them a bit..audi
