      I have driven cars with no power steering, no power brakes, manual gears and i found all those things in the past took the feel and response away from the driver, now no so much but if you drive something without the added equipment you revert to those feelings and adapt within a couple of hundred yards, but if you have never learned to drive without you almost find it impossible to drive. That is a special car for sure and I think it is a semi permanent Ed car.

    Jeremy Clarkson best described it as an automotive fashion accessory, and it's honestly high praise. There are abosultely cars that perform better, but if you want to pull up somewhere to make a statement, few cars for under $1M can so what a Spyker can. It is just painfully pretty and the pagani-esque details are superb.

    Spykers are criminally underrated. I have loved these ever since I found out about them in the late 2000's/early 2010s. So beautiful, so well made, and so exclusive

    Spyker has always been one of the coolest marques out there IMHO. About the stylish, aesthetic pleasure and driving experience! The interiors are delightfully and authentically crafted! They and Koenigsegg were supposed to have a partnership going on, but that was shelved!

    The engine has cylinder heads bespoke to Spyker. Similar to the Ferrari f355, it’s got 5 valves per cylinder, as apposed to the normal 4 in the Audi engines.

    Not only is the shifter design sick but it has a floor mounted pedal box essentially.
    i like it its not something u see everyday but the interior design it being a mid engine high reving v8 with cantilever suspension is so damm cool i think with some motor work for some power gains that thing would be a really fun car to rip on a track or backroads

    David, I'm jealous of the life you live often. and not JUST because of all the cool places you get to go or cars you get to drive, but because you're the same you on and off camera, because you care about people as much as the content you provide. I often wonder what kind of a life that would be and can completely understand the work and burnout associated with what you do... I find myself watching this video as an avid fan of this car (which is one of the few I've never seen or driven), and it leaves me wondering... can you top this? To me this is the pinnacle of "analog" cars and would just be such an incredible reward for all the hard work that it takes to get to a point in your career where someone lets you drive it...
    Thank you for giving me as close as I'll ever get to the experience of driving this thing. Looking forward to seeing you again next spring.
