SUMMARY

This Ferrari 360 Challenge Stradale is an impressive example of the track-focused but road-legal supercar, which is a thrill drive and has one of Maranello’s most sensational exhaust notes. While this makes for a fast and enthralling road car, it could also be deployed for the occasional track day, should the next owner be so inclined.
