Today a Dutch carmagazine (AutoWeek) released some more information about the D8. Although most of the information isn't really new it is nice to see it confirmed again.
- The price of the D8 will be around 235.000 euro (excluding taxes);
- The weight will be 1.850 kg;
- The D8 will have an American V8 with a supercharger and 550 hp, more information will follow at the end of august;
- The engine will be as far backwards as possible, for an optimale weight distribution;
- In 2009 Spyker wants to produce 100 D8's;
- After 2009 250-300 D8's a year will be produced.

Can they build more than 100 Spykers (100 D8's on top of the Ailerons) in 2009 in their excisting facility or do Spyker have to move or expand?
I think they might be moving to this: http://www.spykerowner.com/forum/fac...re-spyker.html building much sooner than I thought!Winning on sunday, selling on monday!

I know that the final numbers are not known, but when a Spyker C8 id 250kg (550LB) lighter than a Ferrari 430 Spider, that I can see that the Spyker D8 will be 500kg (1100LB) lighter than the Porsche Cayenne Turbo. And that will make a huge difference.Rijk

The design of the D8 as we know it will change at the end of the year. The nose will be made longer and the engine will be mounted behind the front axle. These things are mentioned bij Dutch carwebsite autotelegraaf.nl. And they say that the American engine of the D8 will also be used in the C8 in the future.

The development of the D8 has to be restarted. So I guess it will take a few years before we will see it on the road.
The new owners of Spyker (CPP/Antonov) first want to put the C8 Aileron Coupe & Spyder in production before they focus on the D8.
They also bought Bowler recently so maybe they will use some Bowler knowledge for the development of the D8.
