The Ferrari Roma Grand Touring Coupe Sculpts Speed
A Ferrari inspired by ?la Dolce Vita? of Rome in the 1950s and ?60s shows holding back can sometimes move a design forward.
James Mangold?s ode to automotive history, Ford v Ferrari (see it in 4DX if you can for an extra dose of immersion) offers an undeniably visceral experience, one especially recommended for those harboring a love of the history of the need for speed. Unsurprisingly, the film drifts viewer sympathies toward the cowboy efforts of the film’s two American protagonists looking to unseat their Italian supercar adversaries from the precipice of the Le Mans championship. But a funny thing happened during the film: while cheering on for the Ford team, it was the sensually sculpted Ferrari 330 P3 that evoked the strongest emotional response. An amount of that same undeniable automotive artistry can be seen in Ferrari’s latest unveil, the Ferrari Roma Grand Touring Coupe.
While some have evoked the DNA of the Ferrari 812 Superfast in this new addition to the Ferrari lineage, Roma’s elegant profile also references the sedate sophistication of speed of the California T to a notable degree, each a “contemporary representation of the carefree, pleasurable way of life that characterized Rome in the Fifties and Sixties” epitomized by the 250 GT Berlinetta Lusso.
The Italian automaker’s racing genealogy is there for all to see, and at even a quick glance the Roma is undeniably a Ferrari. Yet, this design drives in the lane...
