  • Spyker appearing in movies

    Most of us will be aware of the impression that Spyker has made on Hollywood.
    There's two movies out that feature Spykers.

    Basic Instinct 2
    with Sharon Stone.
    The Spyker has a nice appearance in the opening scene. Sharon drives the C8 through London and things get hot and wet rather quickly.

    and

    WAR with Jet-Li and Jason Statham.

    There's a little part of the car chase in the trailer.

    And here's an amateur video clip of Jet-Li driving the C8 outside the set. And before he pulls off, he actually manages to stall it

      The cars used in War/Rogue are:

      The Spyder used in ROGUE (chassis number 020) has a silver exterior, a burgundy red interior, a turned aluminium dashboard fascia and is fitted with elegant 19”Aeroblade™ wheels in magnesium with central locking featuring five propellers.
      The Spyker C12 LaTurbie used in Rogue (chassis number 055) has a Royal Blue exterior, a magnolia yellow interior and a turned aluminum dashboard fascia.
      But I doubt if the C12 LaTurbie was used during the movie. I haven't seen it but the only shots I saw were from the C8 Spyder.

      And for Basic Instinct 2 Spyker delivered 4 four (2 dummies and 2 normal cars). I know that #011 & #015 were used.

      The car used for Basic Instinct 2 has a jet black exterior, a lipstick red interior, a turned aluminium dashboard fascia and is fitted with elegant 19”Aeroblade™ wheels in magnesium featuring five propellers.

          It was used but only as a static model, they didn't drive her in the movie (that's because it's the only one build so far).
          Winning on sunday, selling on monday!

            Is the car circled in red not a La Turbie?


            Picture comes from Autosport USA's website, but I believe it was taken inside the factory. It appears to have a 'regular' nose/grill part, not as big as the original show model.

            I wonder how many models were made and/or how often it was resprayed. The press photos show it in darkgray/tan, then it was displayed (no idea where; AXLover any idea?) in darkblue and then we have this grey/red one....


            c8
            It also goes from 2x2 exhaust pipes on the first 2 pics to just 2 exhausts. I've seen the same thing on the C8 Double 12's.

              Anybody seen the movie WAR yet? I haven't, yet. Supposedly the Spyker is very close and personal in there.

                  I saw it a couple weeks ago and was surprised to see the Spykers appearing so much in it.

                            Spyker C8 Double 12R in Michel Vaillant from 2003. And that looks like Victor on the background.
