    Well, isn't that what many of the posters on this thread are doing, just in reverse, because they love it and think it is universal elegance? Both views are subjective, and therefore should be allowable whether anyone else agrees with them or not. Personally, I'm somewhere in the middle; it's pretty, leaning towards generic, I don't like the grille in the matching color (although it would probably be OK in black or chrome, or maybe in a different pattern), and I'm disappointed that virtually all controls are now virtual, demanding eye attention, not to mention that center display, which is thicker than a first generation iPad. It's a moot point for me, since I prefer spiders in any case and therefore wouldn't be particularly interested.

    Main problem of the Roma, and the next coming s Ferrari remains the engine. Look at the compartment, it will be any others brands !
    A modern twin turbo is not emotional at all. It s just an engine for cars consumers

    looks great, but lacks (a lot) of personality and (a bit) of family feeling. A Ferrari that doesn't look good in red is not a very good looking Ferrari.

    ciao

    other brands also kills their prestige, aston martin have amg engine, mclaren put the same boring nissan engine to every new car
    today most of sport cars have V6 3 liter or V8 4 liter
