Thanks Vinay! Yeah was crazy seeing this on the street! Great to see the owner enjoys taking it out too! Can you please add a Stratos album tab to whips?

Even though it's bound to be a replica, it's still one of the all-time great lookers. What a crazy shape! Do you think it's lost an exhaust, or grown one?

I'm sure its genuine. It was at the GP in the historic display and also listed as a Lancia Stratos.

The GT40 replicas at Bathurst were listed as "Ford GT40." http://www.madwhips.com/gt40-replicas-at-mt-panorama-circuit-bathurst-australia/

Now categorized as a Stratos. Thanks 300

So it's a replica then?

I would expect so. I can't see a genuine Stratos rally car escaping to Oz. But stranger things have happened.

That is truly a spectacular spot to see a GENUINE REAL LIVE ALITALIA Lancia Stratos on the street today. It isn't something I would expect to come across. What a whack of Nostalgia. I'm still impressed by how amazing it looks today. An F40 is like this too. Even decades from now it will look drop dead amazing on the street I think.

This is all sorts of crazy! Just look at those rear tyres!
