The
2008 Spyker C12 Zagato is an all aluminium rear wheel drive
sports car, based on the Spyker C12 Spyder. The C12 Zagato is
powered by the 6.0 liter, 12 cylinder, 500 bhp W12 engine from
Volkswagen AG and accelerates from 0-100 km (0-60 mph) in 3.8
seconds. Scarcity and exclusivity is guaranteed as only 24 C12
Zagato's will be constructed.
The Spyker C12 Zagato is equipped with a six-speed manual or
automatic gear box with F1 style shifting, Chronoswiss instruments
and a Zagato designed full leather interior with brushed aluminium
instrument panel.
The C12 Zagato has an aluminium body with stainless steel roof
rails and has many F1 derived design details such as an F1 nose,
air scoop, chimneys, mirrors, rain light, fuel flap and diffuser.
It has a panoramic roof that features the Double Bubble, a typical
Zagato style element.
Overall size for the C12 Zagato is 4.5 m long, a 2.02 m wide
(excluding mirrors), 1.25 m high and 1480 kg. The fuel tank
capacity is 70 litres (15.4 gallons). Top speed is 310 km/h
(193 mph).
Norihiko Harada, designer of the new Spyker C12 Zagato, adds:
"All Spyker cars have their own very unique style: the aeronautical
retrospective style co-exists with craftsmanship and elegance.
The new Zagato body becomes even more unique, aggressive and
sensual at the same time. It features a new double bubble panoramic
roof , F1 influenced nose and air intakes, chimney and a "coda
tronca", the typical Zagato cut off tail end.
Maintaining Spyker's styling philosophy, Zagato design put all
these elements together and created an extremely stimulating
example of contemporary exotic high performance sports car by
using typical modern Zagato lines which started from the Raptor
Zagato concept in 1996."
