Presenting a rare gem among Ferraris, this 1993 Ferrari 360 Challenge Stradale, one of approximately 378 units specified for North America, is set to make waves at the upcoming RM Sotheby’s two-day Miami auction on March 1-2, 2024, hosted at the historic Biltmore Hotel. A true testament to Ferrari’s racing legacy, this road-legal racer, with only 9,507 miles on the odometer, encapsulates the essence of the famed Ferrari Challenge series.
Racing Pedigree: In 1993, Ferrari embarked on a racing venture with the introduction of the V-8 Challenge model. Fast forward a decade, and the 360 Modena underwent a metamorphosis to become the Challenge Stradale—a road-ready iteration inspired by its racing counterpart. Stripped of sound insulation and creature comforts, this model features an array of advanced elements, including an F1-style paddle-shifted transaxle, upgraded carbon ceramic brakes, and a retuned V-8 engine, yielding an additional 25 horsepower for a total of 425 horsepower.
Distinctive Features: This North American-specific example, clad in the iconic Rosso Corsa exterior and adorned with a red/black Alcantara interior, stands out with Scuderia shields, carbon fiber mirrors, Rosso Corsa brake calipers, and other distinctive elements. While lacking Lexan windows found in other markets, it compensates with a hi-fi radio with a CD player and a fire extinguisher. Delivered new to California, this Ferrari promises a thrilling experience with just 9,507 miles of history.
