Now you know why houses of design based in Milan have the reputation that they do. And even they produce some turds. I thingkthe ass end has some possibilities for refinement. The front looks like they were hog-tied by manufacturing (or tooling) limitations.

Yikes, that's a bit rough on the eyes.
BTW I didn't know Symbolic also had aircraft in their inventory ... gives new meaning to "one stop shopping"

Just got done with the school year a few weeks ago and we had a transfer student from holland. He wanted to see what AMERICA was all about. Well to make a loooooong story short he saw me looking at porsche.com and asked if I liked sportscars. I was like "yeah there alright..." he introduced me to those spyker cars and my god was I amazed. His dad owns one and he let me see some video that they took of the car. It may look like an ugly duckling but d@@@ can that car move!

I can get you a good deal on one of those. A friend of mine just opened a Panoz, Spyker, Ferrari dealer in Wilsonville Oregon. I think last I checked you can purchase one for around 329K.
I personally think they are pretty cool. I still wouldnt own one though. ...............................................C

I don't remember the car, but I sure remember the interior! I believe it was done by students from "The Jules Verne School of Submarine and Steam Locomotive Design"!

Very interesting. Pretty nice looking exterior. I don't like the interior color, and the steering wheel looks like ass. I do like the stainless items, with the retro 'aircraft' like gauges and switches. The shifter is interesting, as well as the pedal cluster. The hand brake looks like it would be difficult to reach.
Interesting car.

That interior is great!!! The only thing I would change is to get rid of the quilting, I think that is the one big interior flaw. I even like the steering wheel. I would drive that and smoke a pipe with a houndstooth hat on. Jules Verne would be proud.

I think this car is "Symbolic" of those that have too much money and don't know where to spend it.
