Spyker

C8 Laviolette 2009

A hand-built Dutch supercar with an aviation-inspired cockpit and a mid-mounted V8, where 'rare' undersells it.

The Spyker C8 Laviolette is one of the most extraordinary supercars ever produced. Built entirely by hand in the Netherlands, it pairs an open-gate manual gearbox with a mid-mounted, Audi-sourced V8 and an interior lifted straight from a fighter cockpit, complete with exposed linkages, turbine-style wheels, and toggle switches. Only a handful exist. Here you'll find the specifications, the design story, the ownership experience, and the sheer ambition behind it.
