"This particular test drive had been in planning for quite awhile: on November 18th Ferrari president, Luca di Montezemolo, and his chief test driver, Dario Benuzzi, took the New Stratos out on the Maranello-Fiorano circuit for the first time.After a few swift laps, it was apparent that Luca di Montezemolo was extremely impressed by the vehicle’s precision handling. Several enthusiastic exclamations of "bellissima!" and "congratulazioni!" were heard as he exited the car.The sincerity of these compliments was further underscored when di Montezemolo made a phone call to his technical director, Roberto Fedeli, and requested his presence at the track so that he, too, could have a closer look at the New Stratos. Fedeli made a thorough inspection of the vehicle together with another technical adviser. When he’d finished, he was also full of praise – not just the perfect technology, but the numerous details and painstaking workmanship had won over Ferrari’s technical director.Ferrari president Luca di Montezemolo testing the New Stratos at Fiorano race track, ItalyIn the meantime, Dario Benuzzi got behind the wheel and sped down the racing line, maneuvering the curbs and chicanes of the Ferrari circuit. He, too, was impressed by the New Stratos’ razor sharp handling and extremely rigid body, and thanks to his 40 years’ experience in sport and race car calibration, the Ferrari legend was also able to give some advice on how to eliminate a slight agitation of the rear axle that occurred when taking a curve at high speed. As a result, the rear wheels will get a bit more toe-in before the presentation at the Paul Ricard Circuit.Now, in the afterglow of this extremely positive feedback from Ferrari’s top ranks, the highly motivated New Stratos team are beginning their preparations for the presentation in Le Castellet."

das echt een lelijke auto.
smaken verschillen, ik vind hem namelijk erg mooi.
Maar als dit een one-off is, hoe doen ze het dan met ncap?
m.a.w: moet dat ding geen crashtest ondergaan?
Het is onderhuids een Ferrari F430, niet zo moeilijk om als Ferrari-president er eens een rondje in te mogen rijden! Als je het zonder beeld beluisterd dan denk je echt dat het een F430 is.
Is wel behoorlijk knap gedaan die Stratos
