spyker working on a road-legal c8 spider gt2 for the chinese markets


Media reports say that Spyker wants to launch a road going version of the GT2 sports car for the Chinese market later this year. The design for this Chinese edition will be longer, wider, and offer more comfort for the driver.

Spyker also has plans to build a four-door car that could appear as early as 2013 that is expected to compete against sporty executive vehicles such as the Porsche Panamera, Jaguar XF and the Passat CC. The Chinese edition of the C8 Spyder GT2 is slated to be launched in October with a new redesign which will use Chinese design elements on the exterior and the interior with the powertrain being upgraded and made more suitable for daily driving. There are also plans for a second China specific model to be launched this December. Spyker considers China to be its second largest market after the US and so it plans to sell a large number of vehicles in the Chinese market in the next few years.
