Menu dei Motori 01-17-2003, 03:14 AM 16.01.2003 FERRARI 'CHALLENGE STRADALE' TO MAKE DEBUT AT GENEVA MOTOR SHOW IN MARCH http://www.italiaspeed.com/news_2003/news_2003_013_11.jpg Ferrari will present at the Geneva Motor Show in March the 'Stradale Challenge', a road car based on their International Ferrari Challenge and FIA GT racing versions, in which the 360 Challenge and 360GT have raced with great success. It aims to head off competition from the Lamborghini Gallardo which will debut at the same show and is expected to put air between itself and the 360 Modena. The 360 Modena's 3.6-litre V8 has been upgraded to develop over 400 bhp in the Challenge Stradale, while the aluminium chassis and body have been stripped out to lower weight considerably. The Challenge Stradale also offers revised aerodynamics, re-worked suspension, uprated brakes and an F1-style sequential gearshift. http://www.italiaspeed.com/news_2003/news_2003_013_02.jpg enjoy! Neutrino 01-17-2003, 06:40 AM WTF that is a modena with a race strip down the midle. Who the heck ruined the pain job.:zx11pisse :zx11pisse :zx11pisse Menu dei Motori 01-17-2003, 07:07 AM calm down and wait how the final model will look like!!!!!!!! ;) Neutrino 01-17-2003, 07:33 AM Originally posted by Menu dei Motori calm down and wait how the final model will look like!!!!!!!! ;) They beter lose that stripe or i'll open a can.

But that stripe they chose is pretty ugly, if they made the stripe look different then it may have potential. Neutrino 01-18-2003, 12:43 AM Originally posted by Menu dei Motori what do you mean with that?:confused: its a popular expresion in the US. means opening a can of woop-ass. Menu dei Motori 01-18-2003, 05:39 AM Originally posted by Neutrino opening a can of woop-ass. i´m sure this also won´t stand in my online lexicon :D but np YellowMaranello 01-18-2003, 05:06 PM That's gotta be the ugliest Ferrari I've ever seen, except for the Mondial. They should lose the stripe, change the front bumper, and different wheels. Just my opinion. SuPeRcAr_MaN 01-18-2003, 07:59 PM Pictures don't work... Menu dei Motori 01-19-2003, 04:30 AM the pics do work... but i also often have these problems that all others see them but not me... wait until the series version is on the streets and then judge again. i´m sure it won´t have this stripe and other wheels! YellowMaranello 01-19-2003, 01:51 PM Originally posted by Menu dei Motori wait until the series version is on the streets and then judge again. i´m sure it won´t have this stripe and other wheels! True, I'm sure it's much much more impressive in person. I would hope so at least. SuPeRcAr_MaN 01-19-2003, 02:04 PM Okay, the pics worked this time. Why did they round off that stripe like that. That is why it looks so bad. They better change that. :( jsb88 01-19-2003, 02:16 PM BAD IDEA!!! I was just looking at it in EVO and thought.... what is it supposed to be playing at? the stripe probably makes up for the mostly unimproved performance specs to give the illusion of you going faster. Menu dei Motori 01-19-2003, 02:37 PM i won´t get to the airport can somebody send me the actual evo? jsb? plz! how about the payment? jsb88 01-19-2003, 02:39 PM I will try to send it to you! Menu dei Motori 01-19-2003, 03:26 PM that would be great! if you want i can send you a copy of the cd from the laraki press folder jsb88 01-19-2003, 03:29 PM Is it written in english? if so yes please! I will go down to the post office monday or tuesday. Menu dei Motori 01-19-2003, 04:22 PM yes it is! í´ll send it this week... (if your sh** post office is opend in our little 5000 people village) :D Ran 01-20-2003, 08:58 AM WOW that ferrari is a nice car:D DemonZX 01-20-2003, 12:23 PM You should have seen Ken Griffey Jr.'s car! Frikin' bad ass! jsb88 01-20-2003, 02:54 PM What sort is it? v10_viper 01-27-2003, 05:15 PM it only weighs around 2500 lbs too so it should have damn good acceleration and such. EILIG 05-21-2003, 01:28 PM Looks like there will soon be a 360 Stradale available for rental (!) http://www.ferrarichat.com/discus/messages/21/252020.html?1053540806 Jimster 05-22-2003, 03:36 AM While I do like the 360 Stradale- I don't like the fact they made it road legal- I personally would have liked a no holds barred track car :D YellowMaranello 05-22-2003, 03:10 PM What about the 333SP? Is that street legal? Quik$ilver 08-12-2003, 04:07 AM - Pringles 09-02-2003, 02:36 PM That racing stripe is hand-painted on at the factory and it is optional... I'm not sure about this but I think I remember hearing it is a $5k option :screwy: jsb88 09-02-2003, 02:40 PM Yah it is a $5k option I believe, top gear worked it all out, leaving the stripe with whats left after adding up extra cash! :shakehead Why bother with handpainting though? Lond time no see :evillol: Im back! Pringles 09-02-2003, 02:53 PM Top Gear! I remember now. :biggrin: Phatdiablo 10-19-2003, 03:04 PM *** Pringles 10-19-2003, 05:06 PM I've seen pictures of a blue and a black Stradale and they look fantastic! I don't like the red one with the stripe thing... 12CylinderSymphony 10-24-2003, 12:48 PM What I don't like about the 360 is the way the bit under the headlights is painted red too. I think it looks wrong. Black or silver with a stripe and the red interior would nice, especially the black. And EVO said the Stradale was probably the loudest car EVER which is quite nice. :grinno: Pringles 10-24-2003, 05:43 PM I've seen a couple of short movies of the Stradale and the sound is just unbelieveable. How Ferrari gets away with it is something I'll never understand... Automotive Network, Inc., Copyright ©2013
