    I have seen many a thread with people hunting for true 'no' storied (whatever your definition of that might mean) Stradales. Well with stockpro now 'officially' retired I thought I would let you know that they are still out there...and in this case under 5000 miles as well...4845 to be exact.

    Yes it just happens to be mine (shameless plug!)

    Here are some pictures after sending it to arguably one of the best detailers around. Todd is not cheap but you get what you pay for! I would send it to him again in a heartbeat! Please see link below for a write up he recently completed on my car.

    Hope you enjoy!

    I went through the entire slide show with my mouth open and in awe. I can see why you sent your car to him. That man sure knows what he is doing.

    thanks

    The car looks like it's ready to be taken to a studio for a shoot of the original launch of the Challenge Stradale!

    Simply Superb.

    Beautiful Stradales gentleman! :):)

    There are two for sale in Australia, one with only 5530 miles and the other with only 3467 miles. :):)

    I dont know if they are "story free", but they look very nice and I wish I could afford to buy one of them as it would be a keeper! :):)

    Fantastic work mate! :):)

    Thanks for the compliments Gents! Rzundel your Strad looks amazing! Is it rosso corsa or scuderia? What is the rest of the spec? Looks like black leather interior...Love the lift w/jack...very cool! I also forgot to mention that I had a few mechanical things done to the car by Jack @ NJB Automotive out of Westerville OH...belts, new tires (due to age not wear) and a couple other odds and ends. The really cool thing it that Todd works out of the same facility. So you can call NJB and have your car serviced (Jack is awesome!.. and then afterwards give your car the complete 'spa' treatment from Todd! What more could you possibly do for your 4 wheeled significant other...:)

    Oh and Jack will even transport your car to and fro...can you tell how happy I was with the overall experience!

    Beautiful cars, though I can't imagine replacing tires on a Stradale due to their age. It seems a shame not to use these cars.

    Thanks for the compliments! It is Rosso Corsa with full black leather with double stitching in red. The lift and jacks sure come in handy. :)

    Ditto.

    Mine looks great as well, but drives and corners even better. :D

    As good as they look undriven and polished, they are really all about the driving experience.

    They are about taking your favorite corner 20 mph faster than you've ever taken it before.... and the knowing the next time through you can add another 20!

    Mines got stories....... but they are really memories!

    Very cool... make sure to PM Wes (Scuderia-San-Antonio) to get on our club email list, if you aren't already. I usually attend those events also.

    Todd and Jason both obviously know their way around all the lovely curves of a Stradale; inside and out. It is a real treat to see and read about there dedication to automotive perfection here!
    Ohio is lucky to have Mr Cooperider 'on call' there...

    This is where I would insert the comment that Jeff never drives that thing... I would be wrong though as I have seen it out in the sunshine 3 times now. Once in those pictures, but that is aside the point. ;)

    wes
    it actually has been outside 5 times but that includes loading it on the transporter for the recent detail. however it is unlikely to see daylight again, unless RP is in town then all bets are off.

    Zeke_Dog9 / Wes: "...unless RP is in town then all bets are off..."

    See y'all soon. Bags are packed (pic below)). Cars and Coffee San Antonio style once again. Wes.. how about doing the route from San Antone to Banderas again with lunch at that joint?

    Looking forward to the TX weather.

    Auf Wiedersehen,
