    Argento Nurburgring is the metallic silver paint name. With the limited time so far in the car here are some thoughts:

    Pros: 1) Sound is much better than expected (and I'm coming from a F430 spider); 2) torque is insane; 3) power is linear; 4) Apple car play is a must (so nice to not have to sacrifice technology to have a Ferrari); 5) upgraded sound system is excellent; 6) it is surprisingly comfortable (get the power and heated/ventilated seats as they are great) and finally 7) it so much more beautiful in person (pictures do not do it justice).

    Cons: 1) Apple car play does not push to the center screen; 2) the back up radar and surround view (though it is a must order) goes on all the time; 3) the car beeps and makes too many sounds (warnings); and 4) the steering is too light (but that is a my opinion on all Ferraris).

    All that said, in the short amount of time i have had with the car, it is one of the most beautiful cars i have ever owned and so far has given me the most pleasure driving. It is a best sporty GT car i have ever driven that feels like a true sports car but has the luxury and comfort of a GT. Maybe in a few years i will want to get back into a mid-engined Ferrari when the F8 successor has all of the Roma technology but for now, this is pure excellence. I will keep this car for a long time and add as i like it that much!

    Yep got the full seats and carplay, Grigio Alloy color, Premium Sound, never seen a roma in person so i'm excited, all the carbon outside. I haven't seen that on any of the Roma deliveries posted here.
    Congrats, enjoy and i'm envious.. But keep telling us things about the Roma that you notice.
    Cool! thanks again. I've got 6 months to wait. Hopefully they will have all the software kinks out and the nice colored keys.

    I think you can change the settings on the parking systems to be less sensitive. Drove me nuts at first...every stop sign and light but not nearly as much anymore. Will take a look tomorrow and let you know what I did.

    For those in the US that have received or have ordered a Roma, can you tell me if the full electric (not Daytona style) seats are standard and if not what is the option price? I have the full price list but for the full electric seats the price is just OPT. For the full electric seats with ventilation the option price is $7,762. Thank you

    Anyone order any bright colors like yellow, Dino Rosso etc? Seems like you only see one of the silver shades, gray, black, blue, red and white.

    Great pair!

    Have you figured out how to scroll through your favorite radio stations from the wheel? Also, what is the light icon next to the side mirror Adjustor? Doesn’t seem to do anything. Lastly, do you know what the plaque is for in the key presentation box? Seems like it affixes to something. Thanks

    Have only had a short time to try to learn stuff but I’m already thinking this is one of the best street cars out there.

    Sorry, I feel your pain. Mine was there just over 5 weeks too. They only have one guy accepting the cars apparently. I’m sure it will ship soon. You’re going to love it when it shows up.

    Beautiful man beautiful. Yeah I would never have purchased a Ferrari if it wasn't for the Roma. The other Ferrari models are too aggressive (for lack of better words) for me. Roma is like a piece of Art in the style I like.
    Thanks for the pics. I've never seen the cars together like that.
    Did you get ceramic and/or PPF?

    My wife thinks I am nuts but they are both mine. They are so different so I use that as my justification. I haven’t done any protective coatings yet...I know...crazy! I am going to go ceramic in both and maybe a little film in the front. I have been a big Grigio ferro guy in the past and super worried about the triple layer but not as freaked out on these. Going to have them both done first part of Jan.
