Ferrari Roma

As usual I’m wasting my evening away drinking wine and watching YouTube, just watched Mr JWW reviewing the Roma, I’m struggling to decide if I like the looks of it or not, I can’t quite put my finger on what it is, I don’t think it’s bland but maybe it’s not Ferrari enough

I also can’t stop looking at that square radar block on the front, interior is sublime though if not a bit too much touch screeny?

Hmmm I had the same thoughts....
The splitter is too Big for a GT. And yes the radar could have been designed much more elegant.
If I had the money I and the Need for a GT in that class, I Think I World Rather go for an Aston Martin DBS

At first glance it reminded me of new F Type. In fact even more so since I posted pic. Not just front, which was my first thought, but side view and rear quarter too.

Whilst I appreciate the design approach, the rear is very Jag-esque, and the front end is a mish-mash. To my eyes anyway.

Looks like Ferrari have been losing sales to Aston Martin, so decided to make an Aston Martin. :

Don’t like it in either colour. Or rather, don’t think it looks Ferrari enough.

I certainly does from that angle.

I am not a massive fan I must say but I am one of the minority that isnt overly keen on Aston Martin's, they all look the same to me.
