Usual dealer philosophy-"we have had this "rare" car on the books now for months at £199,999 but it hasn't sold, if we increase the price by 10k that might do the trick" !

IMO If it wasn't for the horrid red leather seats, it would have been snapped up by now.

Hi,

Yes I mentioned this in another post.

This is the only RHD CS currently for sale in UK. (Very rare colour too)

http://www.clubstradale.com/post1681.html#p1681


Give it 1-2 years and I think it will get very hard to find a RHD CS as most are going to collectors.
Agree i'm looking to buy a RHD rosso-scuderia one with stripe at the moment and it's proving tricky.
Put a stripe on it, job done.

Have one available off market if anyone is still after one - Test driven it for another customer & can confirm it drives fantastic, goes & sounds exactly how a 360 CS should. LHD, 15,000 miles, no stripe. leather with the cf backed seats. Recent import - £115,000

I wonder how much it would cost to replicate (most of) the CS driving experience with a normal 360 - could even do it as a manual. Might be worth it for people who want to drive these types of cars without spending 200k. Esp. as you can pick up a 360 for (reasonably) little money. Maybe even start with a 360 Challenge and make it road legal.

(remember a thread somewhere where somebody did sth similar based on a manual 360, although I think he went a lot further in the end)

i seem to remember a black 360 advertised last year which was a manual with cs spec, the problem i can see is yes it will have the brakes, nose, carbon, exhaust but will still be a 360 with a kit not a proper cs which will put a lot off it. although i am sure it would attract some who as you say don't want to spend 200k on a real cs

yes remember that car also. Was more thinking to get the driving experience as opposed to copying the look (maybe free flowing exhaust/cats plus a CS Map, better brakes, lightweight flywheel) - just like you can copy a Porsche 964 RS based on a normal C2. Clearly not interesting for collectors, but I always thought the main point was to drive the bloody things hard smile

No money at the moment, but a €50k manual 360 and throw another €10-15k at modifications looks quite appealing compared with a €130k Scuderia (or €180k CS). Also I think about 400hp high-rev engine and a manual transmission might be the sweet spot for driving fun without losing my license (on country roads anyway).

Thank you, that is the one I was reading about a few years ago - very impressive from memory, need to go through it again at some point and gather some ideas

that does look like a great car, but I would want LHD (given where FX rates are) and manual

The search is over - just bought a rosso-scuderia one, looking forward to seeing how it compares to the Scud! Thanks for your help :-)

Great!, did you buy RHD or LHD?, I assume it wasn't advertised?
Can you share mileage and price?
Thanks
