Porsche Sbarro Challenge III

¡¡¡¡¡THANK YOU FOR YOUR VISIT!!!!

This spectacular and futuristic car is the Brand: Sbarro and the model: Challenge, is a concept car of which only produced 10 units for the whole World.

In 1985, Franco Sbarro presented to the Geneva motor show, the Sbarro Challenge with 2 seater unit 001 was mounted on glass rear side, rear wheel keeled and he rode a Mercedes engine V8 for the aero work we did have a CX of only 0,25 World record in its category.

In 1986 the Sbarro Challenge II with only 2 seats, not sat on glass rear side or a fairing on the rear wheels, its engine was a V8 Mercedes. This unit number 002 was presented at the Geneva motor show of 1986 with a CX aerodynamic 0.26.

In 1987 and always coinciding for the Car show in Geneva I that would be version III Challenge unit 003, this time manufactured with a distance of axles shorter because the base was a chassis and mechanics of the Porsche 911, this time the aerodynamic drag is increased to a CX of 0.28 and for the first time the squares became 2+2.

Again in 1988 as always coinciding for the Car show in Geneva I that should have been called version IV of the Challenge but the unit 004 is the call III evolution, this time made also on the basis of a chassis and mechanics of the Porsche 911 but in this new version it worked again on the aerodynamics to lower your CX to 0.23 returning to beat the World record in his category until the day of today, was achieved by increasing the distance between axles, falling behind the rear axle through a sophisticated transmission silent chain developed by Franco Sbarro to this idea is joined to mount wheels of a different size, mounting of 16” in front and 19” in the rear axle to lower the aerodynamic penetration in the front.

Sbarro Challenge III (1988)

Chassis: No. 007

The unity of the Sbarro Challengue III evolution that we present on our website the unit is the 007 that was presented at the motor show of 1990 in his first original colour, the red bordeaux, it has the same aerodynamic coefficient of 0.23 a World record for his category III evolution. Peq. Psed. See pictures. Address a little hard. This unit is a 2+2, and mounted a few accessories that are not featured in some of the previous Challenge and therefore makes him out to be a UNIQUE model within the Challenge and are a video VHS Blaupunkt to watch movies on the TV monitor installed in the center console, this same monitor is used to view the movement with the rear camera video in replacement of the mirrors that are not mounted at the time of manufacture to reduce the aerodynamic drag. Now if the mounts because I install the last but one owner for more security in parking maneuvers and driving. Another exclusive feature is the mobile phone installed fixed between the front seats. Along with this advancement of communication for its time 1990, was installed two appliances, audio players PRE-SERIES of the prestigious brand, ALPINE, both were prototypes of models that would be produced in series later on, are a radio cassette and an advance CD player, both computers have their screens folding something unheard of until then.

The mechanism is the series of a Porsche Carrera 3.2 with 231cv, box Porsche 5-speed manual, air conditioning, central locking, alarm Cobra, air suspension front to regulate the height on the entry or exit of ramps in garages, the steering is NOT assisted. This unit has had only 2 plates, the first was French and the second and current Spanish.

In your award will be delivered with the ITV day and a review and updating of all its elements working correctly, in the prestigious workshop of classic Auto Storica.

In addition, this workshop will mount a approved electric power steering of the Dutch brand EZ. To finish to say that this Sbarro Challenge is the ONLY one in the World of the 10 manufactured to have the opportunity to purchase, as you will appreciate by the pictures and videos is a prototype of a Car show to be saved as a work of art and that its value increase with the passage of time by being a car very exclusive.

The incredible design of the Challenge is that, even though his original design was born in 1985, today it still looking like a car of the FUTURE, and possibly within 20 years even will continue to lead to admiration and surprise. It is incredible that we are by your date of manufacture 1988, with a classic car, when the view tells us that it may have come out of a time machine from the future.

This car in addition to be advisable to buy it as an investment for its value (like that of the good pictures and more classic quoted) it is because you will enjoy leading them in rallies, classic or be shown in Festivals of Elegance, Prototypes and Classics that will leave you without words to the people to see.

It is not a car to race at the 24 hours of Le Mans, but if you enjoy strolling with him and show it to the public at events or in the privacy of the home with friends.

In June, 1997, published an article of Sbarro Challenge III in The English magazine, AUTOCAR when the original color was red bourdeos and in the test summary which is unbeatable in terms of exclusivity, which is the # 7 of 10 in the world, that their value in 1997 was £ 200,000, which today would amount to almost 500,000 €.

"To be fair, the car was never intended to be the best driving supercar to hit planet heart. "The very fact that it exists is almost good enough for Sbarro".

Translation:

"To be fair has not been tried to be the best super sports on the Planet. What is really important is the fact that there is this good Sbarro".

And continuous typing:

"But spending your own money on one was a brave move for the six buyers whove shelved out £200.000 each. You can sort of understand the attraction of the Challenge, incredibly, exclusive, never-seen-before-styling and supreme statement of wealth".

Translation:

"But spending the money necessary to buy, of the last six buyers, was only for the brave with £200,000 to each one."

"You can understand the attraction of the Challenge, amazing, unique, a style never before seen and that denotes a status of supreme wealth".
