    excerpts below:

    "2021 Ferrari Roma: A High-Tech Sports Car With a Midcentury Look"

    "While the Roma has a gorgeous, alluring shape, it’s nothing as overt as the V12-powered 812 Superfast; or the mid-rear-engine F8 Tributo, a car that always seems to be gyrating its hips at strangers."
    . . . .
    "The engine is also familiar: the delicious 3.9-liter, 90-degree V8, twin-turbocharged and dry-sumped, maxing out at 611 hp from 5,750-7,500 rpm—at which moment it feels like a celestial sewing machine running a seam up your fundus. Woo lawdy."
    . . . . .
    "The times, they are a-changing, even exhaust notes. The Roma incorporates a gasoline particulate filter (GPF)—now required in Europe and other markets—which necessitated re-plumbing everything south of the (now smaller, denser) catalytic converters. Consequently, the Roma makes more of a beautiful sound inside than on the outside."

    Great video! Best historical perspective on the Roma yet. He does a great job articulating the reasons I was attracted to the car in the first place.

    Rosso Venaccia! What a colour. I'm sure it will look amazing on the Roma.

    Nice! Mine is in that color with black interior and gallo stitching/accents. Great combo IMO.
