Andy,

Got the following from Ferrari :



Dear Ferraristi,

The Ferrari range has been enhanced by a new model, the Challenge Stradale, its 8 cylinder engine placing it along side the 360 Modena and 360 Spider. The Challenge Stradale, which will be presented officially at the International Motor Show in Geneva in March, is now revealed in print with the photo unveiling available for Ferrari customers to view as a world premiere at the address www.owners.ferrari.com.

This new model was born out of the great brand tradition of creating cars inspired directly by the race circuit. Infact, the name Challenge Stradale itself calls to mind the 360 Challenge, the racing model used by clients participating in the Ferrari Challenge competitions.

The presentation colour is “Rosso Scuderia” as used for the Formula 1 single-seaters, with a revival of the decorative paintwork used on past Ferraris that took part in client races.

I also just heard today it will be RHD and road registerable as opposed to the 360CH which is not
