http://saab.bluegrassauto.com/ I think, going by the street number and a quick google!

I just called a salesman at that dealer and confirmed that they currently have two Spykers for sale, one of them is an '06. He said he would take a video of them and e-mail it to me, since I'm in Germany currently.

JMK Saab in New Jersey has a 2006 C8 on display along with a 73 Saab Sonnet.

I'll take one on my Sony camera. I have BB too, Bold 9700. Great phone!

I love that color too.

Anyone know what an '06 sells for? I'll know tomorrow, but I don't now.

Besides, they have a pretty small showroom and I can't imagine a Spyker sitting next to an Aveo. lol

I drove past that dealership while I was wandering around AA. I noticed a large quantity of modern Saabs in that town.

With models like the Peking to Paris coming out, I have to believe Spyker plans a bigger presence in the US and beyound.

Plus, didn't Spyker move factories to England? What was the reason for the move? Increased production?

Since when? Most Ferrari's are priced well under 200k.

I agree, I see lots of Saabs in AA. Not too many supercars though.

Although I do see a fair amount in Troy, MI (last time I was there I saw a couple of Ferarri's, tons of Porsche's, and even a Maserati). Maybe Saab of Troy will be getting some Spykers.

Sankuspr: Most Ferarri's are actually over $200k. Only the California is under the $200k mark to my knowledge.

The Spyker belongs to "F Spider" he left it there for a couple of weeks whilst he was in Europe; has just picked it up and it will probably be back beginning of June...

Saab is fortunate to have a great sibling in Spyker

I finally got out there today. They had three, but sold one. The one they sold was a 2010 and the two remaining are '06's. One is a brand new 2006 (17 miles) and it is listed for, I think, $179,000, it's the gray one. The other (the blue one) is owned by someone else and it there for the service department to basically take apart and see how to repair things. It has 17,000 miles and most are track miles. Unfortuneately I was unable to go out in one because they had both inside and they would have had to move several other cars. Here are some pictures of them.

Some interior shots:

And the gray one:

Sorry it wasn't outside.

I looked at two Ferraris today, one was an '08 F430 Scuderia that was priced at $229,000, and the other was a 2010 California Spyder for $219,000.

Only the California is under 200k... and that's the base model, and I doubt they sell many like that.

JMK Saab is a very enthusiastic Saab dealer. It is where my new 9-5 will come from. I gladly loan them my Spyker when I'm traveling.

Rennsport1 · #37 16-05-10, 05:21 PM

Our local Aston Martin dealer was also a Spyker dealer, not sure if they still are though, they are not currently showing up as a dealer on the Spyker website. It would be very cool if Sewell becomes a Spyker deaer.

J-Rod · #38 16-05-10, 07:22 PM

These cars are so cool in person. The seats are outrageously cool and they absolutely hug you. I can't wait because I will be getting a job at the Saab-Spyker dealership in a couple years and get to mess around with these cars all day. It took me forever to figure out how to open the doors. lol There's no handles.
