CS Market

I was an "almost" spelling bee champ so I hate mispelling in a forum. If anyone know what a "strupe" is, I would love to hear it Now I did check my favorite "Urban Dictionary" and it means loose women, used be in Shakepearean days

My car is no stripe.

 

Let's not make the "CS Value" thread another in the long line of threads about the stripe preferences. (the a answer remains some like them, some don't, all answers are okay).

Wrt value, an after-market stripe adds no value. In some cases it can slightly detract - for example having an after-market stripe on a very low mile collector-grade non-factory-striped car would be viewed as a modification and likely removed for a collection.

 

very proud of you

 

Somehow I missed the mr Jww video on the CS. Really is a modern classic and one of these belongs in every collection!!

 

I concur. Just haven’t found red/stripe yet.

 

Do tell...

 

I prefer no stripe. also prefer non-red (on any ferrari), but especially I think red is a horrible color on the 360 (including CS)

 

I like them all, but really prefer Silver.

 

argento rules. one day ill have an argento f40 and argento CS!

 

My Speciale was Argento. Loved it but kinda over silver.

 

Great taste you have.

 

Im not a red guy on any other car but f-cars get a pass (and look better in red than most). Im biased though, scud is my first red car and first 2 pedal car.

Don't understand the “re-sale red” thing. Would think the less common colors would be more desirable.

 

If we really must (re)cover the color/stripe topic here...There's very few colors and stripe/no-stripe combo's on a CS I don't find attractive. Its a damn fine shape and wears many hues well.

 

Oh come-on Nuts... Red is a wonderful color on any shape, even a firetruck.

I was like you once... Then I had a trio of red Porsche's that converted me. Now I must have red. And I for one feel that smooth 360 shapes (and others) are accentuated by a good Ferrari red.

Viva Rosso.

 

Pardon my ignorance, the CS is a beautiful looking car and I looked at a blue one that had the Italian flag painted on the trunk when I was looking at my first Ferrari, my 355.
What is the difference between the CS and a regular 360?
Is it faster or better than a standard 430 with 100 more horse because of its “rawness?”

 

I got this:

Updated Front bumper
Updated rear bumper
Rear diffuser
Sharper Side skirts
Underbody tray (50% lighter than Modena)
Lexan back window with Carbon Fiber grills and braces
Lexan side windows optional outside US
Thinner and lighter windshield
Titanium lugnuts
Titanium springs
Carbon Fiber door panels, sills, center console
Carbon Fiber seat shells
Carbon Fiber intake filter boxes
Carbon Fiber mirrors
Carbon Fiber panels (water shields) in engine compartment
Indented gas door with polished cavallino
CCM brakes
19″ Challenge style wheels
Pirelli Corsa tires
Low back pressure exhaust
Titanium exhaust tips
Launch Control
Mass air flow sensor upgrade
Valve spring positioning change
Claimed special engine component selection, machining and polishing
New engine and F1 transmission mapping firmware

Upon introduction of the Stradale the Media then took note of these items directly thereafter:

Rear engine lid (had revised more protruding ‘nulder’ for downforce)
Uprated clutch (to handle Launch Control)
Uprated drive-shafts (to handle Launch Control)
Engine bay to passenger compartment glass – thinner, lighter.
Due to fitment of CF engine panels and CS sports exhaust, they also implemented a pair of fitted heat shields.
Free flowing air box resonator (less airflow restriction)
The MAF (Mass Airflow Sensors) a pair of bigger ones where used to stop air restrictions at the very top end of the revs (for squeezing the last few bhp out).
Dashboard instrumentation fascia clocks revised, rev counter in bright yellow
Dashboard instrumentation fascia cover in carbon
Dashboard heater controls fascia cover in carbon (smaller, deleing stereo space)
Dashboard lower (revised, deleting glovebox and stereo box, less weight)
New s/w for dash clocks (including CCM brakes wear algorithm and race mode graphics among other updates)
New s/w for suspension tcu
New s/w for abs controller (in addition to the already noted ignition ecu’s (pair) and transmission ecu).
New s/w settings for throttle maps (much more sensitive)
New s/w settings for valve opening (opens later than on a Modena)

On the blueprinting of the engine, all 360’s engines were blueprinted but to within 2% tolerances when bench tested. On the Stradale that tolerance was down to just 0.5% so the selection of pistons, connecting rods, etc. was obviously more precise hence CS’s should be virtually identical in power between one and another (from factory when new).

 

Very impressive.. thank you ..would be great to get that for a Scud as well

Very extensive list and explanation. I read every line. I imagine others will too

Thank you Sir.

 

Great list. Love that stuff. Would be interested for Scud as well. A lot of that would apply to Scuds for sure, but the engine and driveline specifics I have never seen in that amount of detail.

 

Just like 250 GTOs are so TOTALLY overrated
I'll take a 599 all day every day !

 

watching a youtube vid on the CS is the best way to appreciate this...

 

There is that classic Top Gear episode with Jeremy in a CS and Hammond in a 996 GT3.
