The car was developed by the Corse Clienti department at Maranello, in collaboration with Michelotto Automobili, using the very latest evolutions successfully tried in past races with the 360 GT.

Compared with that earlier model, there are major changes to the aerodynamics as wind tunnel research has led to a new layout for the rear wing, with a notable improvement in vertical downforce.

The 360 GTC is a new FIA/ACO homologation of the Challenge Stradale, which adopts some of its basic elements: front spoiler, door sills, engine cover and double rear floor. As far as the FIA GT championship is concerned, this competition model meets the requirements of the regulations for the N-GT class.
