2004 | Ferrari 360 Challenge Stradale

• Ultimate 'Challenge Stradale'-model

• Rare Lexan-version

• 1 of only 50 ever made

Some cars are fast, some are beautiful, and some are pure driving machines. The Challenge Stradale? It’s all three. More than just a sharper 360 Modena, this is a full-fledged race car for the road—raw, exhilarating, and engineered for pure performance. Inspired by Ferrari’s one-make Challenge racing series, the Stradale strips away the unnecessary and sharpens every aspect of the 360. No carpets, no soundproofing—just exposed metal, carbon fiber, and an obsession with weight reduction. The result? A car that’s 110 kg lighter than the standard Modena, delivering a visceral driving experience like no other. At its heart, the 3.6L naturally aspirated V8 screams to 8,500 rpm, pushing out 425 hp with razor-sharp throttle response. Add in the Enzo-derived carbon-ceramic brakes and a race-tuned gearbox that delivers lightning-fast shifts, and you have a machine built for speed—whether on the road or the track. Brutal, beautiful, and uncompromising, the Challenge Stradale isn’t just another Ferrari. It’s an event every time you get behind the wheel. 

We are thrilled to present this stunning example—one of just 50 factory-built 360 Challenge Stradales equipped with the coveted Lexan sliding windows. With total production limited to only 1,288 units, the Challenge Stradale is already one of the rarest and most sought-after Ferraris of the early 2000s. But these ultra-rare Lexan windows take it to another level. Not only do they enhance the car’s already track-focused character, but they also evoke the spirit of the legendary F40—the "Godfather of Supercars." Few Ferrari road cars have ever been factory-fitted with these iconic sliding windows, making this an exceptional collector’s piece. This incredible Challenge Stradale was delivered new to its proud first owner in Germany by Eberlein Automobile in Kassel and was specced to absolute perfection. A full black Alcantara interior with bucket seats, 4-point harnesses, a roll bar, carbon door panels and center console, a striking yellow rev counter, and even a radio—every detail carefully chosen for the ultimate blend of performance and exclusivity. Finished in Rosso Scuderia with Ferrari shields and ordered without the usual racing stripe, this example stands out in the best possible way. It simply doesn’t get better than this! This Challenge Stradale needs absolutely nothing—just turn the key and enjoy! From new, it has covered just over 40,000 km and remains in truly exceptional, mint condition. The care it has received over the years is immediately evident in its meticulously maintained history. Alongside the carefully stamped service book, all original manuals and the leather pouch are present, complemented by a comprehensive file of invoices. Now, it’s no secret that these cars age like fine wine, but let’s be honest—the real magic is still in the driving experience. And this isn’t just some standard road car with a bit of extra power—no, this machine is a direct descendant of Ferrari’s track-bred racer, and you feel it in every fiber of its being. 

At cruising speed, it’s surprisingly civilized, almost effortless to drive. The ride is firm but never punishing. But drop a few gears, plant your foot, and suddenly, the exhaust erupts with a ferocious bark—everything sharpens, the adrenaline kicks in, and you remember exactly why this car is so special. No wonder people call it the best-sounding Ferrari V8 ever made! And when it’s time to rein in this beast, you’ve got Ferrari’s ceramic brakes as standard—the same ones used on the mighty Enzo. Needless to say, stopping power is nothing short of phenomenal. Every drive in this car is an event—it’s raw, it’s engaging, it talks to you, it dares you to push harder, to have fun, and when you do? It rewards you like nothing else. 

This Challenge Stradale comes with the absolute full set, exactly as you’d want it. It includes two original keys, the complete set of user and maintenance manuals, and the fully stamped service booklet, all neatly stored in the original Ferrari leather pouch. The car also retains its original toolset, emergency accessories, and tire repair kit, each still in their factory cases. Furthermore, it is accompanied by a detailed historical folder, fully documenting its past with invoices and the Ferrari identification fiche. A truly complete and exceptionally well-documented example of this legendary machine! Now available at RNR Classics!
