Yes, please.

I will bring my own theme music and costume. Purrrr....

About the car:
"Can you imagine a luxury supercar, dressed in the finest and most exotic materials on the outside and bearing an extraordinary chassis within? One made with all the experience of a racing brand, evoking a sense of awe and mystery – much like the hidden depths of a beautiful woman’s eyes. Can you imagine the excitement when the object of beauty also reveals a rich heritage?

That, in its essence, sums up the new Spyker C12 Zagato, which espouses the bespoke philosophy in its purest form – and takes your breath away, much like an incredibly beautiful woman. Only 24 reproductions of this exquisite work of art will be made (starting March 2008), which endows the word “exclusive” with a whole new meaning and heightens the pleasure of ownership.

Its proud creators are none other than Spyker and Zagato, two of the world’s most notable automobile manufacturers. Established in 1898 and 1919 respectively, both companies played important roles in the history of motoring and aviation with their advanced and aerodynamic cars.

The birth of the Spyker C12 Zagato marks an emotional return to the years when a car was truly a one-of-a-kind creation, akin to a work of art, and created by expert artisans with little help from machines. The launch of this ultra-exclusive car also celebrates Spyker’s entry into the world of Formula One, which began with its acquisition of the Midland F1 team in September 2006.

Futuristic in design – the brainchild of Zagato’s Norihiko Harada – this coupé is considered the quintessential collector’s car and features several F1-type details: a pointy nose, chimney pot-style air scoops and rain lights. Its all-aluminum construction is reinforced with stainless steel roof rails, which enables it to strike the perfect balance between strength and lightness.

Powered by a 6.0-liter Volkswagen W12 engine, this rear-drive sports car produces 500bhp and can accelerate from 0 to 60mph (0 to 100km) in 3.8s – not bad for a car that weighs 3,197lbs (1,450kg). If one’s courage stands up to the challenge and there’s little risk of being apprehended by the authorities, the Spyker C12 Zagato can be pushed to a topspeed of 193 mph (310km/h) – though only on a very long straight.

Over and above its high-performance capability however, the Spyker C12 Zagato is a celebration of all things luxurious. This is highlighted by its full leather interior, brushed aluminum instrument panel and Chronoswiss instruments by the luxury watchmaker. As with all fine things in life, quality comes at a price. In this case, €495,000 before taxes."
