Here is the TG article: Topgear.com
It takes some clicking to read the full article, but it's worth it.
You either get the Aileron, or you don't. It's showy and a bit cartoony and slightly mental. But it's also brilliant, and incredible, and life-affirming. And I know what would mean more to me in the long run. Hooray for the Spyker Aileron. It's a very TopGear kind of car.The greatest pleasure in life is doing what people say you cannot do

I tend to agree with Ford's assessment of the Aileron. I find the C8 Spyder "just right" (as opposed to 'too hard') and the Aileron a bit "too civilized" . . . I am mystified by this "market research" every time I hear about it . . . they weren't asking me!With Tenacity, No Roof Is Impossible

... I have done the Apache trail several times, but never with a Spyker. I asked Dan (SpykerX3) and he was tempted, but the timing wasn't right... and now my job in Phoenix is over.
The stretch from Apache junction to Roosevelt Lake is mostly gravel road. Quite bumpy and worn out at times, with those ripples you get if trucks go over it 100x... The landscape is truely spectacular! I'd love to do it once with a C8 Spyder! The best stretch for that in my opinion is the paved section from Apache junction all the way up the mountain until the gravel starts...

I know the Saab deal has taken a lot of resources these days, but shouldn't CPP have turned out at least a couple cars by now?

I know recently quite a few new C8 spyder and laviolettes have been build and delivered to customers. When they go directly to customers, they are never visible to us, so that explains a gap between our register and the actual production.
Production at CPP has definitely been lagging, I have no idea how many cars are being build right now. But the first one, a silver-white aileron with turquoise interior will be delivered in July.Last edited by IVR007; 16-06-2010, 19:39.The greatest pleasure in life is doing what people say you cannot do

I did a small interview with World of Wheels magazine about Spyker and the issue just hit the stands! This magazine is a small Canadian company and is hard to find so I will post scaned copy's of the issue. I must thank Hans Rietveld for getting me intouch with the writer Carolyn Gruske!
This is a very good article about Spyker/Saab and the Canadian market!!!!!
