2021 FERRARI ROMA | ZFF98RNA9M0265061
Specifications
1
~$230,000
Engine: 3.9L twin-turbocharged V8
Torque: 760 Nm
0–100 km/h: ~3.4 s
The Ferrari Roma may wear the understated skin of a grand tourer, but underneath lies the beating heart of a true performance machine. Its 3.9L twin-turbocharged V8, mounted up front but pushed behind the front axle for optimal weight distribution, delivers 620 hp exclusively to the rear wheels through a lightning-fast 8-speed dual-clutch transmission.
Acceleration is brutal yet refined: 0–100 km/h in 3.4 seconds, with a soundtrack reengineered to resonate with classic Ferrari tones despite turbocharging. The Roma’s lightweight modular chassis and Side Slip Control system allow it to dance through corners with grace — a genuine driver’s car, not just a boulevard cruiser.
Though marketed as a more "elegant" Ferrari, the Roma incorporates cutting-edge aerodynamics: active rear spoiler, flat underbody, and hidden intakes — all enhancing downforce without disrupting its clean design. It's a wolf in minimalist, Roman-tailored clothing.
With its long hood, short rear deck, and fastback silhouette, the Roma evokes vintage 250 GT spirit while outperforming most modern supercars in its class. Despite its GT comfort, every detail — from the steering weight to the throttle mapping — was tuned by Ferrari engineers to deliver visceral engagement.
The Ferrari Roma earns its place in a performance registry not just as a stylish coupe, but as a deceptively potent, perfectly balanced V8 RWD Ferrari — the gentleman’s supercar with true sporting soul.
Body Styles
Coupe (Roma) – a sleek 2-door fastback grand tourer with minimalist styling and clean lines, inspired by Ferrari’s 1950s and 1960s GTs. The Roma is characterized by its flush grille, slim LED headlights, and retractable rear spoiler that deploys based on speed and driving mode. It balances sophistication with genuine performance, offering supercar dynamics in a dressy, understated package.
Convertible (Roma Spider) – a soft-top version of the Roma coupe featuring a five-layer fabric roof that opens in 13.5 seconds at speeds up to 60 km/h. The Spider maintains the coupe’s silhouette while adding open-air driving emotion, enhanced by an active rear wind deflector and subtle design adjustments to preserve chassis stiffness.
Model Name Meaning (Manufacturer)
“Roma” is named after Italy’s capital city, chosen to reflect a car that celebrates La Nuova Dolce Vita – Ferrari’s vision of elegant, contemporary Italian lifestyle. The Roma represents a return to understated grand touring, focusing on beauty, luxury, and driving purity rather than racetrack aggression.
Model Name Meaning (Languages)
Globally, “Roma” evokes timeless sophistication, making it one of Ferrari’s most lifestyle-oriented model names. In every market, it carries instant cultural resonance, aligned with art, architecture, and fashion. As a result, it appeals to a broader audience, including first-time Ferrari buyers and those seeking performance with discretion.
Body & Interior Colors and Rims
The Roma offers a curated selection of refined colors that enhance its sculptural lines. Core options include Grigio Titanio, Blu Roma, Rosso Portofino, Argento Nürburgring, and Nero Daytona. More expressive choices include Rosso Fiorano, Bianco Avus, and Blu Corsa. The Tailor Made program expands the palette to include triple-layer metallics, historic shades, and two-tone roof combinations.
Inside, the Roma introduces Ferrari’s Dual Cockpit layout with separate driver and passenger zones, both wrapped in premium leather, Alcantara, and aluminum or carbon trim. Color themes include Cuoio, Sabbia, Blu Sterling, and Tortora, with optional contrast stitching, perforated patterns, and even herringbone textile accents. The 16-inch curved digital cluster is paired with a central portrait-style 8.4-inch touchscreen, while the haptic start button on the steering wheel modernizes the ignition ritual. The Spider shares this layout, with wind protection enhancements and neck-warming vents optional on upper trim levels.
Wheels are 20-inch forged alloys, available in silver, gloss black, satin Grigio Corsa, or diamond-cut finishes. Optional forged racing wheels, painted center caps, and carbon-fiber options are available via Atelier. Brake calipers can be ordered in red, yellow, black, blue, or aluminum. The Roma’s retractable spoiler sits flush until needed and deploys in three positions depending on speed and mode.

vs Competitors
The Roma competes with the Aston Martin DB12, Bentley Continental GT V8, Porsche 911 Turbo, and McLaren GT. Compared to the Aston, the Roma is lighter, quicker, and more dynamically agile, while retaining equal charm. Against the Bentley, it is more athletic and minimalistic, with far less weight and better feedback. Compared to the Porsche, the Roma feels more luxurious and exclusive, while still being extremely fast. McLaren offers slightly more rawness, but lacks Ferrari’s blend of style, theater, and heritage. The Roma Spider adds emotional appeal and versatility, making it arguably the most elegant drop-top Ferrari since the California.
Fun Fact
The Ferrari Roma is quieter than any other modern Ferrari under 3,000 rpm, thanks to variable valve software and gas particulate filters – a deliberate move to make the car usable in cities or luxury districts. It’s also the lightest front-engined Ferrari in the current lineup, and the first Ferrari GT to use the 8-speed DCT originally developed for the SF90 Stradale.
