A Challenge Stradale requires a Belt Service every 3 years. Most sell about every three years to avoid this. You can get this done for as cheap as $2800 and upwards of $5000 depending on which shop you go to and if you want it done correctly. Typical shops will quote it cheap and slip the timing belt on from above but the car does not get timed properly when it's done the cheaper way.
A Scud will cost you 1100 a year for fluid/oil changes.
A general rule I would use is $3k a year maint for either on the 360's or 430's this way you have no surprises when you go in for an oil change and they need to replace a $2k part.

The old saying is nothing is more expensive than a cheap Ferrari.
OP I agree with Barrister. If you are worried terribly about the pricing of the services on these cars you need to stick with Porsche. Porsche's are amazingly well priced on the service side. Parts another story
Well nothing compared to Ferrari parts but both aren't cheap
