Default Challenge Stradale Ute Photoshoot...

This is more of a joke than a serious photoshoot, but I couldn't resist to take some photos of it.

A mate is opening a Ferrari-themed cafe here in Perth and wanted a company car that reflected this, so what better way than to dress up the old ute (pickup or whatever you call them) than with the CS treatment.

The car has the stripe obviously, has been painted in Rosso Corsa, the shields on the fenders and a few other little touches - no carbon fibre mirrors though. :bah:

Normally I would find this a bit strange, but the fact he also owns a real Ferrari and since its for advertising purposes I think its quite cool.

All 14 high-res pics can be viewed on my website :arrow: www.ozcarsightings.com

Here is the beast, with all 4 cylinders:






The stripe:


and another amazing thing, this is the only manual CS in the world!

Well thats why he spelt it like that instead of the correct spelling, I can't see it being a problem. The prancing horses either side of the logo might be a problem though, but he already has plans in place for that.

I guess once the cafe opens in ~4weeks we'll find out - I'll be there for the special launch/opening (hint, hint).

I thought the "Ute" in the topic title would let you all know its a fake, at first I was just going to leave that bit out all together.
