For the American market a special lineup of Urraco was built, labeled as Urraco PIII. To comply with the strict emission norms of America, PIIIs had engines with lesser horsepower, to lower down the final emission. Some of the later models of Ferrari, such as Silhouette and Jalpa, were actually inspired by Urraco.Altogether Ferrari wanted to introduce an optimum sports car with Urraco. Initially some minor drawbacks were found in the car, but the Ferrari team quickly jumped in to eradicate those shortcomings. The cool design and features of the car laid foundation for some other Ferrari cars, launched in the later years.
