I'm glad to see you have accomplished the goal of looking like you won the lottery 10 to 20 years ago like you talked about was the best way to go. Congratulations on all your successes Ed.
Ya I would not have expected to hear that about her. Everyone with loads of money is gonna pick up a Lamborghini or Ferrari. Adding a spyker to your collection proves it’s not about status but a real passion for the cars. Very cool.
@@huntersharddrive6951 exactly. And hell I don't mind buying cars for status cuz if I could afford it I would too. But adding an enthusiast vehicle of this caliber is so cool to me.
@@axe2grind244 well record sales and all the awards and shit she’s won for writing. Executive producing etc say otherwise. Music is subjective I get that but everyone has a missy song they like if they’d give it a chance . It’s not like she’s trippy redd
I grew up loving the brand. It's one of the few things I take pride in as a Dutch person. Always loved the Spyker cars (Donkervoort is a great Dutch brand too). Spyker just has a rocky existence, sadly. But yea, great cars, seen a couple different models here and there in real life and I'm a huge fan.
Ed, out of all the cars you own, I believe in my opinion the Spyker is the coolest. Seems everyone nowadays owns a Murcielago, Aventador, Scuderia or R8. What you have there is something special. Cool factor, I would put it up there with a Veyron. Enjoy the car!
It’s because of social media lol it’s distorted your image of reality. Get off of social media for a month and tell me how many murci’s, aventadors, r8s or scuds you see 😂
Always appreciated Ed's willingness to actually use his cars, even the expensive ones. I die a little everytime I see a huge fleet of cars that just sit in a garage or warehouse while the owner waits to see which ones will appreciate the most.
rich guys having 30 cars in their garage that they never drive isn't even them owning cars, it's just an arbitrary d1cc measuring contest. Display of money to make themselves feel better about themselves, there's nothing more to it. Ed actually cares immensely about cars so I have zero issues with this lol
KEEP IT. Nobody else is doing this content. Would love to see some POV videos in the future like at the end of Jason Camissas Icons-that really makes the fantasy feel real for us. LOVE IT ED.
Back when Spyker still existed I worked at Schiphol Airport. One of the shipping companies that was close to my work shipped all the Spykers around the world including the Spyker Racing team. I saw a lot off Spykers back then. Still an amazing car these days.
3:32 It feels like a WWI fighter jet? That would be very special considering there weren't any fighter jets until WWII. I know I couldn't narrate while driving anywhere near as good as Ed which is why it stuck out. Regardless, the Spyker is a great acquisition.
I got to sit in a racing version of a Spyker car at a tradeshow in Amsterdam once! The history of these modern Spykers is absolutely nuts. As a dutchman I am proud that in our country with so many rules and regulations the Spyker team made such an eccentric beautiful design work for a limited time. They made their mark and car enthusiasts around the world are finally giving it the recognition it deserves (Van Gogh-like after death). Enjoy it while you can!
I saw this amazing car at a car show at Avalon in Alpharetta, GA. The car has such a unique look which makes it so special. The design of everything put the other super cars on display see mundane. Glad I got to see it in person.
Love the Spyker content! I hope you keep it a long time and and we get to see lots of videos with it. I’ve always loved the spyker and would love to own one some day.
I've always been fascinated with these cars! I work on a lot of exotics and these for some reason have always been on my bucket list. I really like the look.
As a Belgian this is the only time i'm gonna say : good job dutchies i love your product! (yeah maybe im also gonna say that when I go to the coffeeshop)
I still have pictures on my phone of seeing one whenever I was up in Boston probably 11 years ago. It was black with a cream interior and had the 4 spoke steering wheel. Seeing one in person gave me a massive appreciation for them, gorgeous cars and so unique too.
Awesome video! Thanks for sharing this special car, I loved when Top Gear did a review on it back in 2009 and I haven't seen it since. The car was also featured in Steve Martin's Pink Panther for a brief moment too.
Small world: I was at Motor Cars of Georgia in 2010 getting an E46 M3 Tranny swapped and while looking at a Spyker in the showroom, I overheard a sales rep say they were on the phone with Missy Elliot because a taillight had went out on her Spyker. Neat to see the actual car driving. Ed you may have been there that day!
Saw you at an event with one of your cars. Was super cool seeing it up close. Out of privacy wont mention anything with where and so on but super cool to meet you!
Shortly after Spyker bought Saab the owner of Just Saab in Cincinnati bought a C8. It's a beautiful car, I love the interior design and of course the exposed shifter linkage. The oddest thing were what appeared to be exposed stainless steel sheet metal screws on the front splitter. They didn't look bad, but its like they were an afterthought.
Absolutely Magnificent Car Ed! Spyker Cars had the Interiors designed by Watch Makers & Airplane Manufacturers long before Pagani which also have Sensational Interiors!!
Doug is the reason why when I seen one of these in person I was able to spit a few facts on the car to people at the car show. These cars are so underrated for someone that is really into the car driving experience.
I fell in love with the Spyker the first time I saw the shifter, the entire car is like a poetic homage to everything cars are, while still being at it's core a functional vehicle. Truly one of the greatest cars ever made if for that alone.
The only one I’ve seen in person was at Naples Motorsports in 2018. I remember thinking it really stood out among all of the special cars there because of all the little details, especially the interior. The gas cap with the propeller on it was super cool as well.
My friend's sister's ex-boyfriend's dad actually had a Spyker C8 roadster! Saw it once when he brought it to the local car meet! It was definitely a sight to behold, as quirky as it is. Very cool!
What made me happy is that you said you plan on driving it a lot! It hurts that most cars of this level are showpiece cars that are one of many that never get used in the way we all want. It makes a difference to see you driving it. I hope you drive the ever-living shit out of it and push it to its limits! A 360 cam in the passenger seat ASMR windy road video would be excellent. Take us with you! haha
Just seeing the view from this cars cockpit in video games translates how special and uniquely imagined this car is. I loved this car from the first time I'd seen it introduced in a car mag
I know what a Spyker is and now after watching this video, I'll definitely know if it's yours when I spot it lol! 😉 Great video! I live out in California and follow cars and I hope to check one of these out in in person one day.
I love Spykers. Ever since they first came out, there are on my top3 dream cars list. I was actually hoping most people would forget about them, so the prices come down ;)
They had one of these in the showroom at Len Stolar Audi in Owings Mills. I dunno if its still there but this is still one of the most interesting cars I've ever seen.
For my own taste, I prefer the Gallardo steering wheel over the sewer valve handle, but overall, I really dig Spykers. There was one for sale in Canada a couple years ago
Probably the coolest and unusual car at the time. Surely not for someone that want to stay anonymous or move stealthy. Would be perfect if not the catfish looking grill. Well done ED.
It seems like I remember seeing it I one of her music video s , definitely something u don't see every day honestly never even heard of one until u started talking bout it on vin wiki , but very cool unique lil car
Was at a car show in 2019 in Amsterdam were the whole lineup from Spyker was. Feast for the eyes. Also when I was about 14 at ams it was the launch of this car coudnt get over the styling still a piece of automotive art
