My Reasons for BUYING This Ferrari!

  • The new Ferrari Roma Spider is on order, but why!? Join me in Rome, Italy for a first drive in the new convertible that is joining the Shmeemobiles later this year. We'll run through the car, see what it's like (including a little rant), and discuss where it sits in my garage and why I've bought it!
    The Roma launched a few years ago, but following the end of production of the Portofino, we now have the Roma Spider, bringing the 620hp 3.9l TT V8 to an open driving experience. A few months ago I announced that a new Roma Spider is going to be joining the Shmeemobiles in future as I placed an order a while ago for another member of my Ferrari collection.
    However, there have been a lot of questions about why I would buy this car. Well, it's time to talk about all of the reasons and where it sits in the garage, what it will be used for, and why would I choose to buy one of these. There's the cliché "oh you had to buy it to get x, y or z" and it's time to discuss more about that and the real reasons it fits in the garage.
    To find out what the Roma Spider is actually like to drive, I have joined HROwen Ferrari London at the customer event in Fiuggi, outside of Rome, where Ferrari have kindly made it possible for me to bring you along for part of the experience.
    Thanks for watching, Tim

      I don’t disagree that he is roped in to play the Ferrari game. But it’s not like hasn’t done it before. He hasn’t bought a McLaren since the Senna (and he’s since sold that) and no news on a new AMG since the AMG GT BS (and he’s sold the C63, G63, AMG GT Pro, and AMG GT Roadster since).
      That being said, he loves the brand, he’s not been shy about it. If they force him to get a line up so he can get the allocation he wants, he’s got choices. And it’s not like the cars he’s bought he isn’t enjoying. He’s driving them like they are meant to be driven. And I do see a future where the SF90XX, the Purosangue, and 296 GTS are in the collection for the long haul.

      Mclaren, and Aston Martin too, dont really play that game. And nor does Lamborghini.
      You could say Mclaren hasnt come out with a spectacular car since the Senna. And you are right. People, especially american kids, think this "game" is some sort of scam. But with a few cars built, everybody cant get one. Its really simple. But its not like they are selling people trash "filler-cars" As Shmee says, the entry level models are also fully valid Ferraris.

      So what's the problem in that? His money, he says he like their cars, that's why he has bought them and Ferrari has now presented him with a nice opportunity of owning one of their special and limited production car! It's the same with every other supercar brand but always Ferrari will be pinpointed for this particular policy by the internet!

    You bought an awful lot of new Ferraris very closely together Tim. Nothing wrong with that, it’s your money but it would appear you were ‘required to buy a few’ for your new XX allocation. That’s the perception anyway. Not criticising, just pointing it out.

      It's odd, but it isn't new; I've seen the same for how much I like AMG GTs, the Focus RS trio I've owned, even the FF and 2x Lusso. People assume you don't ever do something because you want to. It's a very strange mentality and I'd love to know what causes it.

      @@Shmee150no Tim don’t. Don’t think about WHY these people come up with such negative thoughts . Keep doing what you do and live your passion and successes . You love Ferraris and you see to love our country too (Italy) so to quote our most famous poet (Dante) and his Divine Comedy I would tell you : “Non ti curar di loro ma guarda e passa” . Literally “don’t mind about these people, but just have a Quick Look at them and move on” . Don’t waste your time and energies with negative people .

      @@Shmee150 Tim, I hope you won’t get this to be a hateful comment because it’s aimed at showing you the mentality we, watchers, usually have.
      People watch more than one channel so just listening blindly to a single guy’s reasoning isn’t going to cut it for a regular person. For example one may watch yourself, JWW, Seen Through Glass, Stradman and DDR. So we have 6 channels, 6 opinions on the same topic so at the end of the day the watcher will try to come to a conclusion based on those opinions which some might coincide and some might be contradictory. Some of the watchers may have the benefit of their own personal experience on top of what I just said.
      For instance your spat with the DDE logos on your gumball cars. In my opinion you were in the wrong because you look at them as competitors but they argued they were sponsors of the rally and instead of you addressing stuff or a direct apology chose to sweep things under the rug.
      However let’s go back to the Roma. I’m not saying you dislike the car, it’s a Ferrari and every unit is special in it’s own way, but you own another convertible prancing horse although one is front engine, the other one is a mid engine hibrid, but I’m sure that people here have a point because you’re a smart business person and having 2 relatively entry level cars from the same manufacturer can be perceived as an overkill.
      At the end of the day it’s your own business how you spend your money but sometimes it’s best not to offer any explanation just for the sake of it, leave it alone and move on because you’ll enjoy every minute of owning that car…getting hit by the depreciation is a different story though.
      And, while I’m here commenting, you’re a very knowledgeable person and it’s unbelievable how many things you know about cars and about the community. The access you have to cars and people is amazing. You’re a likable, positive, person but sometimes the repetitive content gets annoying and I’d suggest to choose quality over quantity when it comes to uploads.
      Some stuff are utterly boring as opposed to your roadtrips, the track experiences and the series you did with the road to Zenvo.
      Again, not a dig, it’s a personal opinion with no bias.
      Hope you respect the effort of writing such a long comment.

    Stunning car, in a terrfic color. It's like having a 250 GT Spider in 1962. Going everywhere, cruising the Veneto, powering through the Apennines, and coming up the PCH for dinner in Malibu or out Palm Springs. Old school works: luggage capacity, road clearance, soft top, got it all, with today's power braking and handling. (and you save 16 million over that '62 250!) Your reasoning for spec is spot on. Leave the goofy cosmetic packages for the Cigar Afficionado/Rob report crowd. And Congrats! You might be surprised, you might keep it for much longer than you think, a little patina on a well maintained car is quite lovely.

    You say you would be going with blue again. Well, I believe it could be a somewhat lighter shade considering the fact it matches the ethos of Vantage Roadster, is an ode to your first sportscar and all other Ferraris in your collection adorn darker shade!

    Beautiful car. If you can afford in your collection, then it's indeed a great option because it's different than the rest. It's a truly modern day GT with clean swift classic lines.

    When you also consider Tim has worked hard to produce endless videos to be in a position to buy rhings like the GT, SF90, Senna & Zenvo he can start getting into the more special cars so it does make sense for him to follow this path with Ferrari and he gets to spec and own the cars which he can continue to gain revenue from making videos about these very things whilst working his way to the special products its literally a no brainer win win situation for him which differs to other owners not in the industry!

Especially the bonnet(see, some of us Americans CAN banter around some British terms!) 'chin' line and the tail lights.

    I would say the Roma is one of some cars that does not need carbon visual components to make it look good or sportier. its like an art on wheels and would always look better on chrome/silver accents. I would prefer a Grigio alloy or blu Roma over silver accents.(if I had that kind of money😂😂)

    I think the tricky thing to do is balance the reasoning. Buying a car to open opportunities for access to other cars in the future and then making deliberate choices about model and specification of the “entry-level” car, versus choosing an entry-level car and its specification and, oh, just so happens this helps open doors for future more exclusive models. How this is explained is the tricky bit.

    I’m with you Tim. It is still a Ferrari and most of the folks complaining about it will never grace the seat of one much less own one. I personally like the Roma and think it is a very understated, below the radar car. What people cannot fathom is how much attention cars like a Ferrari get from people, and I think the Roma is one that you can drive without all of the attention. I just own an Alfa Stelvio and people start discussions with me about it all of the time.
