You could likely have a channel focused on anything you have a passion for. Glad you picked cars for now.

I love the Roma!! Perfect mix between the rear of the classic 400 Superamerica and the front of the modern Monza SP1 / SP2

personal take, it seems like Ferrari was doing the digital interior for the sake of...making it modern and digital? It's like they're trying to make a statement "yeah we can do high tech interior stuffs as well." Sure it looks cool but if you have watched Harry's Garage review on the infotainment, it's a hot mess. Things were slow to respond and a lot of it seemed super gimmicky. I cant imagine how these will hold up in 3 years.

There is no support for their own tech, meaning they won’t update it over time. Those companies that do update their tech for you will also charge you a hefty premium.

​@@AB-80XThis car easily fits a car seat. In fact due to the wheel position, and unibody structure, the rear seats are directly adjacent to the wheels instead of behind it. Means this car is safer than the Lusso in the rear/side. The Lusso has a flatter rear end, whereas the Roma has an angled rear end, that protrudes further from the rear seats/wheels. It's also safer in the front with a smaller engine. Bigger engine doesn't mean SAFER. It's the exact opposite. It means you now have more force/mass, that'll push into the driver compartment through the firewall. The more you take out of the engine bay, that's not present for safety/crash structure/crumple zones, the safer the car becomes. With the Lusso, its V12 being further back, gives it a better chance to not breech the firewall. Anyway, there's plenty of crash photos of the Roma, and the rear occupant's would leave the cars completely unscathed. That's an incredibly safe car. Where the Lusso is better, simply comes down to cargo space, where you can fit a stroller and other cargo. However, there are small strollers that can fit and fold up like an umbrella instead of a suitcase.

Has a very McLarenesque power delivery, response and sound to it. Looks like crazy fun.

I like that Zack's jacket.... Gimme deets, Zack.

You know its amazing how departed this car is from the F12, 812, and the 488 styling wise, it almost reminds me of that maserati concept car they came out with a number of years ago, like a shurnken down and far less sharktoothy maserati alfieri while also harkening back to like the first Gen Jaguar XK8's, R's and the DB7 with how smooth its bodywork is, like I'd sooner believe this to be a car that came out in 2001 than 2021

Hell unless I'm mistaken just having you guys show up to get the car is a party. If I were buying any other car besides a Porsche I would need a TST stamp of approval. And I'm pretty sure Ferrari would fit in there as well. Thank you guys there are times when I've experienced an overabundance of liquid in my eyes as I witnessed some of these cars perform.... and I did make a public comment and commitment I believe in April I would be owning a Porsche by June... couldn't pull it off but It Ain't Over Til It's Over. Thank you again gentleman and thank you Porsche and thank you Ferrari. How fortunate are we as humans to have these engineering Marvels available to us. Think about that. Keep up the good work.

Okay my friend. I took delivery of my new Roma last week and now I have had the chance to really test drive this magnificent car. One thing you said on this video (minute 9 about) that kept me thinking was that in "Automatic" mode, you feel no difference at all in any of the driving modes; Comfort, Sport and Race. Well, may I respectfully share new information with you and please if you get a chance to drive this car again, try it. So it happens that if you are "gentle" with both the Gas and/or the Break pedals, the computer will not engage the "Race" and/or the "Sport" mode settings. So I purposely decided to be a little bit more "aggressive" with applying pressure to either the gas or break pedals and the car was amazing!!! It felt completely different. In Automatic/Race mode, the shifts happened at much higher RPMs even when going at 40 mph. It kept it in 2nd gear. Downshifting also occurred as expected in Race and Sport modes. So please, drive it again and you'll see what I am talking about. Best regards!!! ;-)

That's so funny about the auto mode with the shift points. If you put a Porsche car with PDK in Sport Plus, even a 'regular' Carrera or Carrera S, it's practically at the limiter in every gear and downshifting every time you drop below 4,000 RPM. It's nearly unusable on the road. Much more focused. Overall this car looks great but I'd be worried about Ferrari and bleeding edge tech...
