The Ferrari 360, which served as the F355’s replacement, was produced until the 2005 debut of the Ferrari F430. The 360 Challenge Stradale, a road variant of the racing vehicle, was created starting in 2003. The engine of this model is identical to the 360 in production, but better components and cleaner ground ducts improve output by 21 kW to 317 kW, or 431 hp. The 360 Challenge Stradale has a taller rear than it has a front. Two of the four exhaust pipes in the exhaust system include throttle valves, and the exhaust system is partially composed of titanium. These flaps open as the engine speed increases. Carbon fibre reinforced plastic was used in the bodywork and interior trim.
