Spyker C8 Laviolette (2003)

The Spyker C8 Laviolette (2003) reaches 60 mph in 4.53 s (100 km/h in 4.73 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 13.04 s, tripping the lights at 110.5 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.15 s and the eighth mile in 8.51 s, reaching 100 mph in 10.92 s.

Simulated, not measured — computed from published kerb mass, rated power, gearing and drivetrain, then fitted to this car’s own published acceleration figures. Dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

About the C8 Laviolette

The 2003 Spyker C8 Laviolette (2003) is a rear-drive naturally aspirated supercar of 1,270 kg with 400 bhp, which works out at 315 bhp per tonne. Rear drive and 315 bhp per tonne make the launch the hard part of the run: 60 ft takes 2.15 s. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 1,683rd quickest to 60 mph, inside the fastest quarter, and the 4th quickest of the 4 Spykers here. Its 110.5 mph trap speed sits about where its 0-60 puts it, so it launches and pulls in roughly equal measure. The simulation is trimmed to 8 of 10 published acceleration figures for this car.

Questions

What is the Spyker C8 Laviolette (2003) 0-60 time?
The Spyker C8 Laviolette (2003) reaches 60 mph in 4.53 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 1,683rd quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Spyker C8 Laviolette (2003) quarter mile time?
13.04 s at 110.5 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 8.51 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.15 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Spyker C8 Laviolette (2003) have?
400 bhp and 1,270 kg, which is 315 bhp per tonne. It is rear-drive, naturally aspirated, with 6 gears and a quoted top speed of 300 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Spyker C8 Laviolette (2003)?
Closest here on pace: TVR Griffith 500 (4.46 s), Brabus E V12 W210 (4.44 s), Brabus SL 7.3S R129 (4.43 s). Each one can be raced against the Spyker C8 Laviolette (2003) in the panel at the top of this page. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
Are these real measured times?
No. Every figure on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. The Spyker C8 Laviolette (2003) is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 8 of its 10 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

Figures regenerated 2026-10-16. Every number on this page is computed by the simulator at build time, so the page and the app can never disagree.
