Ferrari 360 Challenge Stradale |
Geneva 2003 sees the launch of a new, harder edged incarnation of the Ferrari 360, the race derived Challenge Stradale.
Clearly
inspired by the Challenge racers, the Stradale features a stripped out
interior with racing seats, carbon doors and F40 style plexi-glass
windows. The subsequent weight loss (110Kg) and equally welcome power
gain (20bhp) give the 360 the boost it needs in a bid to see off
competition from the forthcoming Lamborghini Gallardo and Porsche GT3.
Formula One development also plays it's part, accounting for the superb
carbon/ceramic brakes and aerodynamic enhancements that give a 50%
increase in downforce.
For track day enthusiasts, the Stradale's £30k premium over the 360 Modena will probably be well worth it!
