SPYKER UNVEILS NEW B6 VENATOR CONCEPT AT THE 83RD GENEVA INTERNATIONAL MOTOR SHOW
Today is a very special day.
Spyker (Spyker N.V.) revealed their new exotic compact, 2-door, mid-engine sports car at a press conference in Geneva, Switzerland, today.
"It is everything a connoisseur would expect from a high sports luxury car and more, thanks to the design language and details that could only come from Spyker. A bold beauty is what you will find in the Spyker B6 Venator Concept."
2013 marks the global resurgence of Spyker as a creator of meticulously built automobiles whose beauty is equaled by their unrivaled craftsmanship. The brand’s revival is heralded by the introduction of the SPYKER B6 VENATOR CONCEPT, a unique alternative in the High Luxury Sports sector, at the 83rd Geneva International Motor Show. The SPYKER B6 VENATOR CONCEPT is a compact, 2-door mid-engine sports car that will offer the discerning driver of the highest standards a new choice, delivering a rare combination of heritage, design, performance and exclusivity.
Designed by Victor R. Muller, Chief Executive Officer of Spyker N.V., the Spyker B6 Venator Concept makes a defiantly contemporary statement whilst paying homage to its past, making it instantly recognizable as a Spyker. Highly detailed design, bespoke materials and aviation-inspired elements are a core part of the Spyker DNA. With the announcement of the Spyker B6 Venator Concept, the company once again proves its Latin axiom: “Nulla tenaci invia est via” – “For the tenacious no road is impassable.” The name “Venator” is Latin as well, meaning “Hunter” – a nod back to Spyker’s “Hunter” fighter aircraft of the early 20th century.
"The SPYKER B6 VENATOR CONCEPT represents our view of the future, the beginning of an exciting new chapter in our history.” -Victor R. Muller, Spyker’s CEO
And with a price point of approximately $125,000 / $150,000, more discerning drivers who have aspired to own a Spyker will be able to achieve that dream. [Editors note: I'm taking donations now.]

Quick points: All carbon fibre body, all aluminum platform and a curb weight of less than 3,100lbs. (1,400 kg) and 6 speed automatic transmission.
Are you as excited as me? Well you've got a year to get the garage ready, it won't be produced for the US market until autumn 2014.
