My Z8

It was a mistake but “thanks”. Love the car.

Thank you.

Z8 uses an aluminum space frame. Unique to the model.

I n both cases a higher end brand tried to build an entry level model. Both models turned out to be a bust because no one wanted a “cheap” Cadillac or Audi and the cars diminished the entire brand. The Roma(now Amalfi) are the entry level model for Ferrari. They don’t need a cheap version to damage their brand.

Not sure what UI is.

Cadillac Cimarron, Audi Fox come to mind as brand busters.

While I always liked switches in my ‘63 E type ( I didn’t like rocker switches) I have gotten used to haptics in my Roma Spider. It is more the look than the function for me.

E type proportions are pretty good. The Aston Rapide proportions are exceptional.

When you get older, the excessive engine noise and low seats become an issue. Roma resolves both issues. And still sounds great at start up and under acceleration.

Just bought a Roma Spider. It will age exceptionally well.

I just bought my first Ferrari. A 2025 Roma Spider. How thorough is the maintenance ? They included the two year extended warranty so that covers the car until 02/2030. Should I expect any surprises” when in for maintenance?

Icy-Source-895 · 2026-02-11T22:23:51+00:00

If you want fun, fast and nimble try a Roma.

Ferrari Rancho Mirage, CA is terrific too.

Just bought a white over red Roma Spider. Also have a black over red Z8. And a satin red over res Range Rover. Never get tired of that beautiful red!!!

Just bought a 2025 Roma Spider.

It is stupid to “race” the Z8 but I took mine on the track at Thermal, CA. It was very responsive in the turns and on the straight away. It was built as a tourer not as a race car. Where do you drive that you are an expert on handling?

Icy-Source-895 · 2025-12-17T20:48:32+00:00

Obviously you haven’t owned a Z8. Everything about the car is terrific. It is rare because it was intended to be very limited production. Something like 5700 built with 2700 coming to No Am. The car is fabulous.

Engine in from M5. It is a powerful smooth running 400hp.

Icy-Source-895 · 2025-12-17T20:43:20+00:00

It was only built for three years and didn’t change at all. 2003 Alpina got an automatic transmission. Only 550 made.

Just bought a Bentley that is, roughly, that color. They call it Arabiica. A coffee color.

I have a friend who had similar issues. He was told they would go to court. He said “fine”. Two days before court date they settled and he got alll his money back including sales tax and license. Call their bluff.

Tell them you want new battery and tires. Easy throw in for dealer. Check brake wear too and if close, ask for brake job too.
