2004 Ferrari 360 Challenge Stradale

This 2004 Ferrari 360 Challenge Stradale is one of approximately 1,300 examples produced worldwide. It is finished in Nero Daytona over Nero Alcantara upholstery amd powered by a 3.6-liter V8 linked with a six-speed F1 sequential transaxle and a limited-slip differential. Further equipment includes 19″ Challenge alloy wheels, ceramic-composite brakes, Scuderia Ferrari fender shields, and a Challenge-style rear grille as well as carbon-fiber sport seats, a CD stereo, and automatic climate control. The car underwent a 2018 service that involved replacing the timing belts and camshaft cover seals before being acquired by the seller in 2020. Now with 30k kilometers (~19k miles), this 360 Challenge Stradale is offered in Canada with manufacturer’s literature, a tool kit, a car cover, partial service records, clean US and Canadian Carfax reports, and Ontario registration.

The 360 Challenge Stradale was the track-focused version of the 360 Modena and featured weight-saving measures including composite bumpers, carbon-fiber mirror housings, Plexiglass windows, and a Lexan rear window with carbon-fiber supports. This example is finished in Nero Daytona and features xenon headlights, Scuderia Ferrari fender shields, a Challenge-style rear grille, and quad exhaust outlets exiting through the rear fascia.

The 19″ Challenge alloy wheels were manufactured by BBS and are mounted with Pirelli P Zer0 Corsa tires. The suspension features lower and stiffer titanium coil springs as well as a thicker rear anti-roll bar than those on the standard 360. Stopping power is from yellow-finished Brembo calipers over cross-drilled and ventilated ceramic-composite rotors at each corner. The front wheels were repaired in 2018.

The cockpit features carbon-fiber sport seats upholstered in Nero Alcantara, which extends to the dash. Weight-saving measures utilized in the Challenge Stradale model included specification of a carbon-fiber console and door panels as well as reduced sound deadening. Amenities include automatic climate control and a CD stereo along with power windows and mirrors. The alarm system siren was repaired in 2018.

The leather-wrapped steering wheel frames a yellow 8,500-rpm redline tachometer flanked by a 340-km/h speedometer as well as a digital fuel level readout and gauges for oil pressure, oil temperature, and coolant temperature. Paddle shifters for the F1 gearbox are mounted behind the steering wheel, and drilled pedals are located below. The digital odometer indicates 30k kilometers (~19k miles), approximately 2k of which were added under current ownership.

The mid-mounted 3.6-liter Tipo F131 V8 features a flat-plane crankshaft, dry-sump lubrication, dual overhead camshafts, and five valves per cylinder. The Challenge Stradale was factory rated at 425 horsepower, an increase over the standard 360, achieved using lighter and higher-compression pistons, a revised intake manifold, and ported intake and exhaust runners. A timing belt service was performed and the camshaft cover gaskets were replaced in 2018 at approximately 27k kilometers (~17k miles).

Power is sent to the rear wheels through an electrohydraulic six-speed F1 sequential transaxle and a limited-slip differential.
