NEW DELHI, Nov 21 (PTI): The car that sizzled with Sharon Stone in Hollywood thriller 'Basic Instinct 2', Spyker is headed for India, all set to enter here by next year.
The Netherlands-based Spyker cars has already shortlisted potential partners to import its vehicles and two dealerships are expected to come in the National Capital and Mumbai.
"Spyker is always looking for the right partners in viable markets for the brand and we are discussing with a number of potential partners in many new markets, India included," the sales department of the luxury sports car maker told the reporter in an e-mailed response.
The company has conducted a market study and held talks with possible partners in the National Capital and Mumbai, although nothing has been finalised yet, it added.
"Spyker has shortlisted the potential partners and we will announce the new retail partner when the arrangements are finalised. It is our intention to launch the Spyker product in 2011," the company said.
Even though the company did not share possible price tags of the models, the marques with hand-crafted body panels will go up to several crores. For instance the C8 Spyder Aileron is tagged at 2,20,000 pounds (about Rs 10.6 million) in London.
