    Im with you on this. My 2020 C8 Corvette has unbelievable tech that all works. Makes the Ferrari look like it was designed by children. However I have owned quite a few exotics over the years starting with a new 1967 Ferrari 275GTB4 so you know I have been around awhile. For me the real enjoyment of these cars is the simple pleasure of driving. Step on the gas, shift, feel and listen. I really don't care about the tech stuff. Cross traffic alert, cruise control, etc. I have other cars for that. The Ferrari or Lamborghini I just want to take out to the open road and drive it! No radio interfering with the sensation of the car. Now I know the younger guys on here want all this tech and that is ok but, for me, the real beauty of these cars is in the pure driving of them.

    That isn't shown as a color choice on the Roma Configurator. It must be one of those special-order colors that cost big $.

    It could be Verde Zeltweg, which is a classic popular choice among metallic greens. Not the best pictures to tell, but it could very possibly be.

    My dealership told me today that my Roma is at the port on US soil. Now it needs to clear customs and then transport to the dealership.

    The latch warning you saw, was it an “e-latch failure”?? Door is highlighted?

    I’ve had it pop up a few days ago.

    What was the fix for it?

    Thanks!

    Should be here - mine got here Friday. Still calibrating it at the dealer, but almost ready for me to get a clear bra and ceramic coating. Looks even better in person..

    For orders being placed now in the US, do we have a sense of when they may arrive?

    Our Roma in rosso venaccia is now at the dealership. I saw it yesterday and took some low grade photos. We'll take final delivery on Friday.
