This year the Spyker C8 design is 15 years old. It is unbelievable how well the design ages. The 918 has nothing on the C8

Agree absolutely. One of a very few design classics that achieves balance, attitude and presence without straight lines... and is as good in motion and at a standstill, and is as good up close as it is from a distance. In fact even fewer cars excite you with more interesting design up close than you can see from a distance (and even fewer buildings Rijk!).
It's e-type good!
I think the only engineering mistake is the cooling - having the radiator flow up and over the screen into the cockpit makes it hard for the cooling to keep up and means I overheat!! Making the air-conditioning pump out more cold air to counteract is not a pure solution for me! And not sure it is necessary for a road car - maybe take the air out underneath the car, and give us a front boot (frunk)?

You guy's need the upgrade to the later (2008 and up) AC.
Nothing will solve the roadster configuration at 100F. But the newer AC has double the capacity of the earlier AC.
The two vent and the three vent AC have the same capacity. Only the four vent has the improved system...Rijk

I'm fully solar and geo-heat pump now... but I still cannot bear to waste energy!

Like I have a fridge that chills air inside and gives out heat on the outside that I then cool with A/C; except in Winter when I heat the house because it's icy outside then put a box in the warm house and use electricity to freeze the small space inside it....
