Challenge Stradale
Ferrari_360_Challenge_Stradale.jpg
Description
The Ferrari tradition, epitomized by the F50 model, is one of stripped-down performance and not of luxury. This tradition has recently been let go in favor of the leather and ornamentation of the 360 Modena and 575M Maranello, but Ferrari returned to its roots for the Challenge Stradale. It is a two-door coupe and is essentially the 360 Modena from the outside, though its aerodynamics have been reworked slightly. The main differences are a stripped-out aluminum chassis (causing a significantly lighter vehicle), an upgraded 3.6-liter V8 engine, improved suspension and brakes, and a Formula One-style sequential gearshift.
It was officially introduced in March of 2003 at the Geneva International Motor Show and went into production shortly therafter.
