Seventy-Five years after the original company disbanded the Spyker brand was resurrected in 1999 by Victor Muller and Maarten de Bruijn. The first production car called the C8 paid strong homage to Spykers heritage in both aircraft and automobile production. The design of the hand-crafted C8 represented the latest evolution of Spyker's signature architecture. The propeller design was consistently applied towards many elements around the vehicle. Notable design features for the C8 included fuselage-type styling rear cannon-port vents a prominent wide grille intake a propeller-inspired steering wheel an engine-turned dash insert and more. This later series C8 shared a modernized steering wheel from the Audi R8 and Lamborghini Gallardo due to airbag and crash safety.
