Call 484-612-4147 or email sales@mcotml.com for pricing and details. This 2021 Ferrari Roma proves that the entry level Ferrari can be the best Ferrari to buy. As a grand touring car with over 600 horsepower, the V8 Roma has the magic to claim to the legacy of V12 Ferraris like the 365 GTB/4 Daytona and the 365 GTC/4 while offering the value and practicality of an everyday driver. Tim Mosso exhaustively reviews the engine, performance, and technology features of the most compelling V8 Ferrari since the F355 was still in the lineup. This 1,746-mile Ferrari is available for immediate delivery from Motorcars of the Main Line in King of Prussia, Pennsylvania. Ferrari introduced the 2021 Roma as the successor to models like the California and Portofino series, but make no mistake; this is a supercar. With the Ferrari F154HB V8 engine, the Roma boasts 612 horsepower, 561 lb-ft of torque, and a top speed of 200 miles per hour. The 3.9-liter V8 includes twin-scroll turbochargers and direct injection to eliminate virtually all turbo lag. Racing-inspired features include remote reservoir dry-sump lubrication, a flat-plane crankshaft, and variable valve timing. The engine drives an 8-speed dual clutch transaxle transmission that permits both manual and automatic operation; its location helps to ensure 50:50 weight distribution. 0-60mph in 3.3 seconds, quarter mile runs in 11 seconds at 133 miles per hour, and 0-100 in just over six seconds are achieved. Performance features beyond the drivetrain include carbon ceramic brakes, an electronic locking and torque vectoring differential, and Ferrari's sixth generation Side Slip Control performance traction management system. Front end vortex generators, rear end diffuser, and a rear deck motorized spoiler keep the Ferrari Roma planted at speed. Steering is extremely quick at two turns lock-to-lock, and this car features the optional carbon fiber steering wheel with LED shift lights. Interior amenities of the Roma are many. Dual zone climate control, rain sensing windshield wipers, and automatic headlights are standard. An 8.8 inch tablet-style touchscreen, a 16-inch driver's instrument screen, and - in this case - an optional passenger size touchscreen present functions and data to the front seat passengers. This car's significant options includes Ferrari ADAS, JBL 1,500-watt high definition stereo system, extensive use of custom colors, materials, carbon fiber, contrasting stitching, and embroidery makes this Ferrari a potentially unique car. Front seats are powered with memory, heated, and cooled. Navigation is fitted, and this car includes optional Apple Carplay compatibility. Ferrari Active Matrix lighting provides optimized visibility during all low light driving conditions. With a unique combination of exterior Verde British Racing and a hybrid interior of green, black, and Blue Medio leather and suede, this is a Ferrari unlike any other. The original owner of this car selected $125,469 of options on top of the base price of $218,670. We believe this to be among the most heavily optioned and uniquely specified Ferrari Romas in existence. Car review by Tim Mosso.
