Just stumbled upon this: www.motorvision.de
About halfway down the page you'll find the video section with a link to a roadtest of the Challenge Stradale.

The commentary is obviously in German but who cares when the car sounds that good!

Finally, a 360 that sounds good straight from the factory.

Everyone else can just bolt a tubi on

I've heard it will be devastingly fast, could it be the result of that white strip running down the middle referred to so often in that clip?

Yes the white strip down the middle of the Stradale is a performance enhancing option. How else do you think Ferrari can get away with charging customers £3,600 for the option?

I think a tenner down B anq will save a few quid, and you can have any colour strip you want.

Oh my word!!! What the hell? I wouldn't believe that, but as its you saying it, and the subject is Ferrari, its gotta be true!

B & Q? Believe me that's what I would do, if I had such an inckling to ruin my car.

Read the article about it in Evo this morning. The 360 Modena its based on isn't too shabby in the first place, so I'm pretty sure this will be a truly remarkable car. And how can EVO complain that it's too damn loud- are you nuts? It's a street-legal racing car; that line to the exhaust valves would be the first thing to go I can tell you. I even prefer the interior, which has lost those shitty aluminium panels. Only problem is 133 large for the base spec (sans hand-painted stripe), not insignificant in itself, and close enough to 288GTO/F40 money to make you think twice.

Actually, that isn't the only problem. Another is that the car exists at the same time as one of those 'Oh fcuk it, let's just do it' moments.

The £3,600 paint job was mentioned in this month's Evo magazine. The bit about it being a performance mod was obviously me being .

LOL Wish I had that problem! This wasn't even an outside bet last time we had the 'what Kev's buying next' sweepstakes....

OMG! That sounds amazing!

I would love one of these beasts! The only problem is (apart from not having the money) is if you don't go for the stripe it will look almost the same as a normal 360.

Oh and the fact that a lot of tossers drive 360s nowadays. At least they do round my area

Will they do RHD and will a 6'5" man fit in one? (Me)
