2009 Spyker C8 Laviolette LM85 Coupe

The C8 Laviolette LM85 was a bespoke variant designed by Spyker with 'LM' representing Le Mans and '85' for the marque's favored racing number. It was exclusive with a planned run of 24 examples, one of each hour of the grueling French endurance race. That production figure was not achieved, and 14 examples were ultimately produced, each one wearing the Spyker-inspired racing livery of Burnt Almond Orange with a Gun Metal 'S' logo over a cabin trimmed in a blend of black leather and Alcantara. Additional unique features were the black AP Racing brake calipers, black 19-inch Aeroblade wheels, a fixed rear spoiler, and LM85-specific exhaust tips.

This particular LM85 was hand-built at Spyker's Zeewolde factory in March 2009 and was the fifth example constructed and delivered for sale through Spyker of Troy/Suburban Exotic Motorcars of Troy, Michigan. It came factory-equipped with iPod connectivity, contrasting Orange interior stitching, power-assisted brakes (one of an estimated 15 examples with power-assisted braking), and a Spyker fire extinguisher.

This Spyder has just under 1,300 miles on its odometer.
