Seen when aimlessly surfing youku.com, a video sharing site that is China's equivalent of Youtube.
The guys who took this first video spotted the car in Beijing headed towards the airport expressway and being curious as to what car it was, gave chase and tried to keep up with the Spyker. Luckily for them, the Beijing traffic was in their favour and the Spyker could not put its power to effect although there are short stretches of clear road where the power and acceleration was obvious. Cool number plate too. And the black coloured licence plate in China means the car is registered to a foreigner or a foreign owned (or part foreign owned) company.
In a separate video, this young girl (you could see the reflection off the car) chanced upon the same car parked and took a closer video of the car with her mobile phone. The quality of the video is pretty decent.
The car in question is a Spyker C8 and the car has a V8 4.2l engine sourced from Audi in normally aspirated form for the base model and a twin turbo. I tried to figure out which model it is but unfortunately the Spyker website only has the 2009 models and the trim is slightly different from the car in question. Anyone know what specific model this car is?
