5th gear Tv program tonight channel 5 8.30pm.

The schedule has Vicki Butler Henderson driving the 360 Challenge Stradalle,probably worth setting the video and turning the surround sound up for.

I don't know, but if you find out can you order me one, and a Jodie Kidd too!

I've not really considerd a 360 ( new cost a bit rich for me) - but would a "standard" 360 with a fruity exhaust sound like the CS?

With nice 360's getting into the 70k bracket - I might kid myself into thinking they are affordable !

And is the paddle shift software upgradeable so that it can move with the developments of the technology?

That program got me itching to check one out..

Thanks

Phwoar!!!!
Having driven an early 360 round a race track a while ago, Ive never considered the 360 to be much. All a bit namby pamby.

BUT, that uprated one on TV last night.....oh yes, whose the daddy.

Right, now where did I leave my baliclava (sp?) and my shotgun......... Im off to rob a bank

Only thing from my point of view is that VBH looks a bit like my sister (married) and appears to equally as crazy! mates make leacherous comments etc...but you just can't get remotely interested....

Challenge Stradalle...sounds amazing,,,,Hard to justify the cost over a standard 360...but I am so glad they made it..

Someone with any kind of dress sense and a pretty face would do for starters.

I've never seen her look anything other that a mess, and she looks like a good bath wouldn't go amiss!

I too was one of the sorry souls running for the tissues whilst listening to the CS on 5th Gear last night.

Didn't have the telly on quite as loud as the Damax 360 in the GT Champs though. Awesome.

Did look and sound rather nice

The subtle new styling finishes the car off rather well... makes it look more purposeful.

The exhaust sounded more aggressive than the usual ferrari road car sound I thought?

Topstuff just asked all the questions I was going to!
Can a 'normal' 360 sound like that and is the f1 shift upgradeable or are there hardware differences on the CS?
