Spyker Cars is a Dutch sports car marque. The modern Spyker Cars only has the legal right to the brand name. The company's motto is "Nulla tenaci invia est via", which is Latin for "For the tenacious, no road is impassable". The marque's logo displays the piston engine of an airplane, a reference to the historic Spyker company which manufactured aircraft. To save Spyker from bankruptcy, Swedish Automobile sold Spyker to American private equity and hedge fund North Street Capital, LP for €32 million.
