Brother In Arms

Toned down and beefed up. Those are the secret recipes of performance car makers on coming up with a much more extreme model of their existing cars to make them go faster, and be meaner. Like Lamborghini, the normal Gallardo is pumped up with more power and added a spoiler, thus becoming the Superleggera. And the Porsche, the same is done to the power and a roll cage + spoiler is installed, making it the GT series (GT2, GT3, GT3RS,etc...).

But with the Ferrari, no visible bodywork is added. It is only with a trained eye that one could spot and differentiate between a normal production car and a special one. The perfect example for these beasts are the 360 Challenge Stradale and the F430 Scuderia.

Point your favorite.

Both cars are lightened up by stripping off some luxuries, which resulted to the loss of 100kg of unnecessary weight. And to add more punch, more than 20hp is squeezed off those V8 to dash them off from the starting line faster than their original form.

Lemons or strawberries?

Although spoilers are not a common sight for Ferraris, some cosmetic changes is almost a must for their track-killers/road-legal cars.

Would you prefer a Challenge Stradale?

Or a Scuderia?






Maybe in the near future, a new mod for the 458 will come and challenge the supercar rivalry that has been challenging them for years. Or is it out already?
