Amalfi vs Roma: which one do you prefer?

The new one looks like a worn bar of soap. All the sharp lines of the Roma have been washed away in a design cleansing. The Amalfi doesn't care as it sticks it's tongue out at you...

I know exactly what you mean. It's essentially a sibling to the Prius.

New is always better…

 

Amalfi design is so clean that it is boring.
To be fair as coupe it can look more sporty.
However, the Roma remains a classic and will be judged accordingly in the future....I think

 

I just got a Roma. Traded my C8 Z06 and I love it. I love the look and how it drives. The Amalfi looks too similar. The extra HP is nice but so far I love my Roma

 

Agree they missed an opportunity by not making a Roma M. Could have made a couple tweaks with the new interior and really nailed it - design and function. Portofino M was great example with even very minor changes and they remain desirable. Assuming a spider is down the road, I'm not sure the Amalfi is going to wear that well - hard to visualize.

 

I cannot wait for the Amalfi M to refine the shape further.

This comparison photo really cements in my mind that I made the right decision to get a Roma Spider. When the Amalfi launch was happening I had this thought in the back of my mind that I might be really disappointed with my Roma if the Amalfi looks much better. As soon as I saw it though, I was grateful they came up with such a boring Prius-based design. I'm sure they poured a lot of effort into it, but frankly, it looks absolutely terrible. In fact, I'd say it's the worst looking car they've ever made as a company. And at the end of the day, we buy these cars not because we want something practical to go to Costco and do the school run - we buy them for the way they make us feel. And when I look at my Roma (pic attached) I honestly feel giddy inside like an 8yr old watching Top Gear smash a car around it's track and dreaming that I'll have one of those one day. As cheesy as it sounds, I'm living my childhood (and adulthood) dream with my RS. If I had the Amalfi, I'd feel absolutely nothing when I walk up to it (from what I can see in pictures) - and that, for me, is the biggest sin they made. They took away the way it makes me a child on the inside just from looking at it - the most important thing about a supercar, for me.

I see the bar-of-soap, Prius-based and EV-inspired design and I shake my head, because I know I have this parked just a minute away… Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login

 

I love my Roma Coupe, will never part with it. My one gripe is the center touch screen, which is an abomination to work when driving. Clearly Ferrari has fixed that in the new Amalfi. The Roma's design harkens back to the Daytona, which is stunning. The Amalfi is clearly a look into the future, just not mine.

 

I’m thinking about getting hand-painted grey shields on a new allocation.

 

How?

 

say what? TM or Atelier?

 

Untalented hack with a poor sense of aesthetics.

 

Whatever it takes.

 

that would be so cool if you can pull it off. good luck!

 

I don’t like the design of the Amalfi or the Roma. I prefer the lines of the Portofino.

 

More security with the convertible Portofino roof to.

 

I saw the Amalfi during Casa Ferrari. The Roma is so much better looking. Not even close.

 

Let's hear it for the Gladiator nose design!

Hey guys, has anyone pre-ordered Amalfi and what are their delivery dates? Are we talking end of 2026 or 2027?

 

Ordered in Australia. I’m thinking 3rd Q 2026 for delivery.

 

Thank you, I am looking for 2027 model year/delivery so i guess I will wait some more.
When exactly did you place the order?

 

I placed an order the day after it launched in Italy!

 

Has anyone seen a render with the "tongue" in black to match the grillwork?
