The Ferrari Roma might be relatively new, but it’s got what it takes to be an instant classic.
The Ferrari Roma is a real hero. There’s something to be said for the joy of driving a high-performance Italian car with a front-mid-mounted engine, and rear-wheel drive, let alone one created by the masters of driving joy, Ferrari. The Roma is an absolute masterpiece of a grand tourer, with a proactively modern design that retains all of its Ferrari passion and uniquely stunning looks. The design might be different compared to what we are used to from Ferrari, but it’s similar in the fact that it refuses to compromise when it comes to refusing to compromise for unparalleled beauty. While the vehicle is meant to be fun to drive and speaks to “la nuova Dolce Vita,” which means “the pleasurable way of life,” by no means it is a slouch.
With the front-mid mounting of its V8 engine, the Ferrari Roma is able to mitigate the weight distribution disadvantages that come with a front-mounted engine, and create a car that is precise, athletic, and simply powerful just as much as it is beautiful and passionate. While the Ferrari Roma is a prime and quintessential example of Italian grand touring, the car is also futuristic when it comes to comfort, convenience, luxury, entertainment, and especially performance. With a starting MSRP of $226,570, it’s a beautiful, powerful, and simply a no-brainer way to start or expand a collection of Ferraris or simply a collection of the world’s greatest cars. The 2022 Ferrari Roma proves that when it comes to beautiful grand touring cars “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.” Rather than fixing grand touring cars as though they were broken, Ferrari made them even better with the Roma.
For those who love an open-top driving experience, Ferrari has recently revealed the new Roma Spider, a car that combines the Roma’s undeniably-stunning looks with a soft convertible top, something Ferrari hasn’t done since the F430 Spider of the 2000s. Combining the Roma’s performance, style, and luxury with an open-top experience, the Roma Spider is a dream weekend machine in its own right, as well.
