- Ferrari have released five new cars in 2019 and Chris Harris thinks that's too much. But does the new Ferrari Roma's fuss-free design cut through the mix and make it a winner?

"A 488 or an f8 tributo, whatever it's called this week"
Hahahaha savage 😂
😂
It's true... they spam out a new V8 "entry" model like every other year at this point
Adonis Limes yeah but in all honesty, McLaren is by far the worst for this lol 12C 3.8 V8, 650S 3.8 V8, 675LT 3.8 V8, 688HS 3.8 V8, 540C 3.8 V8, 570S 3.8 V8, 600LT 3.8 V8, P1 3.8 V8, P1 GTR 3.8 V8... 720S 4.0 V8, 765LT 4.0 V8, Senna 4.0 V8, Senna GTR 4.0 V8, Speedtail 4.0 V8, Elva 4.0 V8.... it’s just ridiculous how they get away with so many versions of the same car!
@@beardmechanix1642 fair enough mclaren engines are all very similiar/ the same, but the 570S and the P1 are very different cars, they pretty much only share the engine.
Clemens Weiss they share everything within each series. Just different calibrations for each car.
The car looks great but then again most Astons do don’t they.
Im a Ferrari fan but give me the Aston Martin any day of the dull Roma, California etc.
Frosted yep agree
They do....
@@FrostedSeagull Oh come on. That's not fair. I think the Roma looks gorgeous. I mean okay, it's safe and bland but it looks pretty. They went quite bold with it. I'd say it gives the swanny Astons a run for its money. 🤔
@@F1ll1nTh3Blanks I'm saying that for Ferrari. . . unimpressive.
Im a huge fan of Ferrari and also TheCarGuys site where Damien who runs that site actually owns Lamborghini's, Porsches, Ferrari and Aston Martin's.
Damien just rolled his eyes when he saw the Roma and asked the following questions:
Who exactly are Ferrari actually trying to sell it to?
The Ferrari V8 crowd want the Pista, the now impressive F8 Tributo and the even faster and more impressive SF90 Stradale.
12 Cylinder Crowd - are only now receiving the 812 Superfast and Superfast Spyder. The 12 crowd are awaiting the alleged scaled down version of the Ferrari LaFerrari which now appears to be a rapidly receding myth.
So . . . where does that leave the aesthetically unpleasant Roma ? In fact when the Roma was announced there was an immediate spike in V12 Berlinetta's. That says it all !
Chris became even more confident on camera (I didn't know that was possible). Less goofy, even more at ease saying "negative" stuff. Bravo!
He's always been critical about cars, go watch his old videos on Chris Harris On Cars. He acts goofy because Top Gear tell him to do so to cover whats been left by the trio
@@naufalkusumah2192 I wrote he is less goofy, please read carefully. He was goofier when he was working on /DRIVE and his own channel. I also wrote "even more at ease", which means he was critical before and now "even more". So, with all due respect, please read more carefully when replying to someone's comments.
@jon doe you suck !!! Anything and anywhere .... Merry Christmas idiot
Well he is already black-listed from Ferrari 😂
@@MysterDaftGame The top gear learning curve
Chris looks a lil fustrated lately...
He seems super pissed, I love it. They have to thank god that they got Chris Harris for their dying tv show.
@jon doe lmao
jon doe he’s the best fit, he knows cars like the back of his hand and he’s a professionsl racing driver. You know nothing about the man, you are what made the new top fear that bad actually.
Anthony R. maybe he’s turning into Jeremy Clarkson
He is not 25 anymore.
It’s either a Merrari or a Faston Fartin...
The latter, definitely the latter 😂
I'll take the Merrari😂😂😂
I'll take one Faston from you Mr Fartin
Faston Fartin is great! :D
*_Fast and fartin'_*
Chris Harris: says anything car related
Me: yes
@jon doe lol scattergun spamming. I just simply don't think you are a real petrolhead if you don't find his reviews/opinions interesting, you'd be happier watching other kid youtubers
Loool
Vinay Chauhan i think it’s more agreeing with everything he says. Yeah he’s a top dude but don’t agree with all he says.
It's like poetry, it rhymes. - George lucas
I think it is the best car ever built. It looks expensive but, somehow subtle. Aston martin db11 looks like a sports car and so is vantage. Ferrari Roma is elegant, not screamingly luxury but also nor sporty nor too aggressive. I have never liked a ferrari throughout my entire life, and was very confused why people were getting excited about them, but this changed it all. Aston is a sports car, but this is a proper GT. Elegant is really the word for it.
The Jaguar F type looks and sounds better, and the top spec is less expensive. Pretty sure they perform similarly as well
Ferrari: 'copies the english name Superfast
Aston : let's copy the italian name Superleggera
Ferrari: let's copy Aston's design
Aston : Hold my beer
Haha. It's mid engine car will look like a ferrari too.
That's funny!
😂😂😂
@@jafooli valkyrie and valhalla doesn't resemble any ferrari look
@@ardijanuar2036 they aren't mass market cars
I do agree with the F12 bit....
Buuuuuuut
The Roma is one of the only modern ferraris I've ever properly wanted tbh think it looks just fantastic
When I saw the thumbnail I really thought it was a new Aston😂 until I was the title. It's nice but I REALLY looks like an Aston
Laferrari
@@avinashrai11141 nahhhh
Seriously how can anyone ever deny that Chris Harris is not a car man. Ppl may know cars but he knows about the cars that's levels!
Chris Harris is the preeminent Auto journalist of our era.
I don’t think anyone has ever said that Chris Harris isn’t a car man.
@@metronemy I'm referring to when some fractions complained about top gear trying to recreate the magic of Clarkson/May/Hammond days with some saying Chris is just a silly side kick without knowing his true credentials.
Could say the same thing about the side profile of a Jag F Type
And the rear of a jag e type.
Well thats good... considering the price of an F-Type in comparison!
could say the same thing about a Nissan 370Z
I am infactuated with my FF. 4 seats, 4 wheel drive, V12, shooting brake design, reliable. Rarely seen on public roads. The glorious sound it makes! Great chat with Chris. Thanks.
Along with the 458, the FF is quite possibly the best of Ferrari in recent times.
The Vantage's glass shape looks the same as the one in the Jaguar F-Type. Would he be happier if it was an odd shape that didn't flow with the lines of the car?
Chris does not look happy lol.
He hate his college....and is not having fun, in his company. THAT'S WHY
Jeppe Bjerring-Sørensen why does he hate him so much? Lol every time this guy interviews Chris he hates it and it shows lmao.
Greebo 954 that would make the most sense. I was beginning to wonder if they wore the same clothing every segment weeks apart lol.
Yup can see his frustration. I'd take a used F12 or a 550.
@@SorensenBjerring colleague
Should have been a shot in the arm for Maserati, not another addition to the Ferrari Argos catalogue
I know I'm several months late but "Ferrari Argos Catalogue" had me on the floor
Look at any small suv today from this side profile. They are all the same as well.
At first glance, I thought it was an Aston Martin until I read the text ...
First a Supra that drives like a BMW. Now a Ferrari that looks like a Aston Martin? What kind of a car society we live in now? 😂
Lambo that’s Audi and Female Athletes that are transgender
its nothing new
@@agreatd It's Caitlyn with a C 🤙😂
A confused one.
Chris Harris has been talking a lot of shit in the last few years, this Ferrari Roma is based on the classic Ferrari the rear is identical to some classic Ferrari models like the 500! And for me it is the most beautiful GT of the last 20 or 30 years !!
I aggre with Chris. For exemple what about number of new Mercedes models? It is insane!
It was always that way with Mercedes
jon doe oh i see now. You are the dumbest hater on yt. The man is excellent!
@@myvishan I've seen him reply to like 8 different comments lol. Trolls are weird.
Mercedes and BMW have 738292949292922 different models and 29293839 variants of each. As Chris said, I can't keep up
The fact with Mercedes is that the A Class family (A-CLA-GLA) is already bigger than the C and E combined. But the real problem is that now it seems they are the inspiration for the rest. Screens put with no taste and cheap, rattling plastics inside, and weird design on the outside (The CLS is soulless and the GLE, especially the Coupe, is utterly disgusting)
Now you can really see how fussy the side of the Aston is. It is about as busy as the design lines of a Honda Jazz. The Ferrari is spot on and one of their better looking cars in years.
Totally agree. Sleek better looking car.
What it SHOULD be compared to is the DB10 from Spectre. The Roma is absolutely identical to it honestly
I don't really care that it looks like an Aston, it's a lovely thing. Cars can look similar but be beautiful in their own right (e.g. Jag XK, DB9).
I think the worse thing is exactly what Chris said. For the same money you could have a slightly-used F12 with 4 years left on warranty.
@@bsnyd10 yes, it's hard to make a case for it there. But that also applies to all the Roma's competitors, too.
Jaguar F-type also exists. Aston Martin doesn't have a monopoly on this style.
It's a db9 covered in pasta
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 i died
So underrated 😂
È la Aston ad aver copiato Ferrari ed altri marchi italiani semplicemente perché lo stile italiano voi barbari ve lo sognate. E continuate a mangiare porcherie, nemmeno questo sapete fare ed a sfottere con pizza e pasta, sai che ce frega.
The new Ferrari Roma is inspired by the glorious berlinette of the Prancing Horse with rigorously 12-cylinder front / central engine from the 1960s and the Roman lifestyle of those years "La Dolce Vita". The reference can be the Ferrari 250 GTL, the 250 GTO, the 250 GTE and the 250 SWB always from those years. Ferrari doesn't need to copy from anyone, so before you speak, connect your brain with your tongue.
@@maxwelch6855 Questi barbari non capiscono nulla del nostro stile! Ferrari 🔝
Hey Chris, here's a suggestion: Stick to test driving cars and leave the design to designers, capiche? Don't smear your well-earned reputation by making ignorant comments without understanding the history and lineage of the Ferrari design DNA a la the 250 GT Lusso.
The Roma looks gorgeous.
Who the hell whines about that cars looks ?
🤣🤣🤣🤣
It's uglier than a 458 or 430.
It looks exactly like an Aston, that's why. It's like buying a Hyundai that copied a BMW. The rich care about getting something unique with the money they pay. It doesn't look unique at all from an Aston.
@@pkpnyt4711 I suppose it's crazy to say this, but the Roma is just on the borderline of surgeon and hedge fund managing multimillionaire. The surgeon will think that any new Ferrari delivery is special, unique and perfect. A guy with an 8 figure net worth? The novelty of the badge alone has worn on him as he's maybe bought and uptraded a few Ferraris already. It's the Rolex Submariner man vs. the A Lange & Söhne man. See what I mean? Ferrari is very keenly aware of the difference between these two.
@@Chironex_Fleckeri Do you know that Ferrari doesn't sell to everyone right? Read up on how to own a Ferrari and you'll understand that a hedge fund manager can't just walk in and buy one. They mostly sell to former owners and to people who have relationships with them. These people are the ones who are very particular and don't like getting something that looks like an Aston.
@@pkpnyt4711 Not true with the lower models.
I agree Chris. I miss Enzo and Pininfarina 💔
jon doe doesn’t?
@jon doe Even a rock would know more than you. You are always here, always hating on Chris Harris. The more you comment, the less believable (and it was not very much since the very beginning) you sound.
@jon doe As if I said anything wrong... try to use better resources, hater
Bah, it looks like this, it looks like that. I dont care, it looks great
👍🏿
thank you, finally somebody gets it. The Roma looks stunning and I'd absolutely buy one over an Aston Martin.
yes it looks good but it’s a ducking aston martin. that’s the issue. zero creativity.
David FE It is so interesting to see so many viral ‘car guys’ discussing design. To be able to truly understand design and design evolution and the actual art in the lines of a particular automobile, and if one is not extremely knowledgeable about what came before, (circa 1930s) when designing a car became an art, then very quickly these thoughts by these ‘car guys’ sound like only mis-informed and passionate opinions at times. I am certainly not saying that about this particular interview. However it is important to note that the design of the Ferrari Roma was inspired by the early 1960s Ferrari Lusso. If you take a look at that sleek coupe you will see that Ferrari has at least a few times previously, created a smooth elegant and curvaceous body. That automobile actually looks like several other exotic automobiles of the early 60s as well.
@@redjupiter2 Although I think I'd take the Ferrari Its very hard to deny the Astons body lines and proportions are more aesthetic. The Romas front end Is quite nice though.
Roma is amazing. I like this guy but he is wrong
Aston Martin is rubbish compared to Ferrari. That is a fact.
Quite sad to see Chris so frustrated about modern cars. Its a shame the way manufacturers are heading. Quantity over quality straight and simple.
He isn't frustrated with the Mustang Mach E.
Because now it is more obvious than ever. This frustrating SUV madness has reached such levels we haven't ever imagined. Bentley, Aston, Mercedes, Rolls, Lamborghini, BMW, Audi, and so on rely mainly on crossovers; And as he said before, when brands start to produce fancy looking products (in order to just persuade customers) instead of well engineered, risk-taker and sensible cars, we end with crap like SUVs. In 5 years, second hand market will be *flooded* with such hideous and useless machines.
It is kinda curious how some magazines and TV programmes tried to question the electric vehicle, as if it was some kind of enemy, yet the real problem were the goddamn SUVs.
@@DavidGarcia29497 He also acknowledges that it's more expensive than ever.
@Robert Blackford I don't literally mean quality as in build quality/reliability. Referring to quality as in a quality product that's had a lot of time and investment put into it, quality cars that are amazing to drive not just making vehicles for no reason
@Robert Blackford He doesn't mean the reliability genius. 🤦
He's talking about crazy things like manual supercars or V10 shooting brakes. You know, silly stuff that are more about fun than performance. Creative nonsense, just for the sake of it, like 911 GT3 or Zonda. 🤷 Not stuff that's guilded to markets but to create markets. I know it can't be this way so much for obvious reasons but still. That's the point.
It looks 100% like the Maserati Alfieri
What are u blabbering about, completely nothing to do with an alfieri, are u dumb or blind 🤦🏻♂️
I agree, it is a Maserrari!
So the Roma is a disgrace, but the Mustang Mach E is completely fine?
Arm Head everyone has an opinion my good friend
as Chris mentioned, Ford is aiming @ a different segment with the Mach E, newer crowd with very limited knowledge of car history or they don t care about history at all, and the hardcore mustang crowd would likely not be interested in the March E to begin with, so Ford is being pragmatic.
Ford is trying to compete with Tesla, Audi, Jaguar... Brands that have the fame on eletrical cars that Ford never had. They use their famous name to get attention. Otherwise, they will never be able to keep up with other brands
@@wilsonjunio1794 The only brand that has had fame with electric cars is Tesla. Everyone else makes them, because they'll be mandated to in order to lower their carbon emissions. Audi, Jag, Toyota et al have made electric cars...good ones...but they're known for other things. Ford isn't exactly going to be left behind. They could have called this car something else. Instead they choose to sully the name because millenials and hipsters won't care.
Because mustang name doesn't mean shit. Every high schooler with a min wage job is beating a v6 to death.
Ferrari too many models....
McLaren: hold my beer.
Companies make cars to emulate ferraris. Ferrari should never make a car to emulate anyone
5:50 Chris is the definition of a horrible "speculator" haha, dude loves cars too much to care about "investing" in it. Something people should learn from him tbh.
To date he has sold so many cars that skyrocketed after he sold em: GT3RS 4.0, 993 (iirc)...
Hmm... personally I consider the new Vantage to be the ugliest Aston in my lifetime, while I consider the Roma to be one of the most beautiful modern coupes I've ever seen. Strange hearing someone say they look identical.
I wouldn't say the Aston is the ugliest car they've made because they just released the dbx and topped the charts. But I will agree with you on the fact that the Ferrari is beautiful. I don't know what Harris is going on about, because this is definitely not an Aston and only a daft idiot who doesn't know his cars would mistake it for one. I'm glad that Ferrari has release so many new models this year and I'm glad that they've taken such a different approach to design on the Roma .
Sad that it's not in red
The F12 is, as he says, gorgeous, what a master piece
Props to Chris. Jet lagged and clearly exhausted, but really doing well not to just snap and lose his rag.
He looks like a dad whose young kid woke him up after two hours of sleep, and refuses to go back to bed without discussing everything that happened at nursery school that week. There are flashes of impatience and frustration, but always quickly reigned back in... Can almost hear Chris mentally counting to ten throughout this series of videos.
I would pay to have a car chat with Chris, one of the only person who realy knows his subject AND is honest
It is very different from Aston Martin Chris Harris should stop commenting on automotive design altogether 😑
It only looks like an Aston at first glance. When you look at the proportions and details , everything there is all Ferrari.
First glance is all that matters on the road. People won't be standing around soaking it all in as one drives by, they will be going "was that an Aston?".
Robbie Khan incorrect, I loved the new vantage at first glance. But later on I started seeing the Miata headlights and uncouth proportions that it has. Now it’s just plain ugly to me.
@AM G show me an Aston that has similar rear end or front grill
Chris is arguably one of the best if not the best car journalists out there.
Cars aren't exciting these days..
Koeniggsegg and Rimac would disagree.
Stephen Gallazzi Neither of those are exciting to me... I love cars, but all the super hyper 2000 bop cars do absolutely nothing to me.
Ford fiesta STs are pretty fun, especially the newest model
Guys, you are talking about cars that very few people in the world can afford. If you go back some and a bit years even a simple car was fun.
Before i got my own car i drove around in my moms 1981 Toyota Starlet with something like 60HP, and it was fun...
Not even a new hot hatch is that fun today. Cars are just too numb, cant feel them anymore.
@@NikesZ28 thats the exact thing im trying to say
Is this one of those shit ferraris that you have to buy so that they'll eventually let you buy the one you actually want?
Poor Chris is never gonna finish that coffee..
Chris is a man with genuine passion and knowledge and must be protected at all costs
I think it looks classic Ferrari succesfully modernized
Watch Frank Stephenson’s video about the Ferrari Roma. He is one of the best car designers in the world. His thoughts about the Roma’s similarities to Aston Martin show a deeper understanding of Ferrari’s heritage than Chris gives credit for.
The glasshouse? It's a teardrop shape. It's an aero feature before being a design feature. Yes, the glass ends in a pointy fashion. Wow, is that it?
I can agree that it should have been a Maserati. The GT and Alfieri are the cars that actually look like the Roma, in terms of design language.
Honest as one can be. F12 is my favourite too...but I can’t afford one 🤗
812 n-largo
best rarri
Love the F12!
Traditional Astons never looked like the new Vantage, same goes for Roma. It’s design traditions proliferating across brands.
I love Chris Harris’s work but he’s wrong. He’s been around long enough to know better. The Roma has quintessential Ferrari DNA and design elements.
chris has obviously forgotten that ferrari has had a long history of building elegant front engined gt cars way before astons cars were even heard of
yes, the F12 berlinetta is my favorite
It's just form following function, there's only so many things you can change to differentiate one front engine rear drive coupe from another without ruining it, same reason most mid engine rear drive cars look basically the same.
Good bloke Chris Harris. That’s my kind of no nonsense car love. He just talks sense.
Chris Harris doesn't like Lamborghini and Tesla.
Why is Chris so grumpy
Jet lag.This was filmed just after he got back from a long flight from LA.They really should have done these videos AFTER he got over it.
Fake Richard Hammond interviewing him
Because the of the topic....anyone with half a brain can pick up on whats going on. Most of these manufactuers are digging themselves a grave. Times are changing and the way theyre choosing to adapt is wrong.
he's trying to be Jeremy Clarkson
People know 0 thing about car design...!
🤦♂️
It's like saying a Samsung Galaxy has the same design as an iPhone...
I love how Chris always looks like he's on the wrong side of a red-eye flight when he does these videos. Go get some sleep bud, we need you. 🤣
The Ferrari dealers in London, Dubai, Monaco and Los Angeles will not have an issue selling all these Ferraris.
The same cannot be said for the rest of the dealers
I don't know what's up with that Aston Martin comparison. For god's sake has anyone ever seen any AM?? Headlights, and the whole front end, looks nothing like an AM, nor back, and from side it's more like Merc-Amg GT
Wrong ...wrong
i think they compared it to the wrong am, the front end looks more identical to the db10 imo.
@@rafikusuma9989 You are right and I must agree on that, didn't even thought of db10. But since roma came out people are talking it looks like AM, and that's it. Which could mean any AM
I like that they went with something less aggressive but they didn't quite pull off the balance.
Just like fiat money....when you make too much (models/quantity) of something, you cheapen the VALUE/uniqueness of it.
Maybe I should be embarrassed for not knowing who this gentleman with Mr Harris is... but I enjoyed his enthusiasm about the Ferrari, in spite of Chris' seemingly jaded perspective on it. The man held onto his celebration of the design and its purpose within the lineup despite our good man giving no quarter. I'm with you mate. I'd happily park one beside my modest base 911 if I could afford it.
How can you fall in love with a car when there’s another one coming in a minute? Actually, their customers don’t fall in love, they use and dump.
I agree,
falling in love with a car has nothing to do with the number of cars coming out. i like chris but he says a lot of bs too
I'd more say the new Vantage looks like a Ferrari, and a poorer version of one. Preferred the old look. Also, I'd make one change to your list of Ferrari GT cars, and that's replace the 365 with the 550. It only has two seats, but would you really complain if you had that car?
I can see why people are saying it looks a bit like an Aston Martin
But the Roma is the front engine V12 gran tourer Ferrari is known for like the 612
no, the 812 is
Except it has a V8.
I'm buying the Ferrari Roma because I want a 911 and a DBS but I only have enough money for one so I'll get the Roma which looks like both a 911 in the rear and looks like an Aston Martin in the front just the perfect mix Ferrari has done it again with masterpiece of design.
I agree with everything except that the 612 aged well what was ugly then still is now
100% agree. The back of the 612 look like a dead whale
The roma reminds me more of the old daytona. Ironically though, Chris Harris likes the f12 which looks EXACTLY like a c7 corvette.
Having own several Astons and several Ferraris, I can tell you that while there may be a similarity in looks, the driving experience associated with pretty much any Ferrari is on a different planet than pretty much any Aston, and that includes the DB11 and new Vantage.
I just realized this is an example of what The Sketch Monkey said about designs being copy pasted onto other cars of the same category. But I appreciate how simplified it is. The grill got smaller and sits lower on the front end. Think about it.
Aston got away from elegant aston martin styling, so ferrari is now filling that gap. Good job ferrari, stunning car
Chris wearing a G-Shock square. Cool!
Chris Harris is such a gem.. it's good that he has grown Into this.. topgear might have a chance to survive with him around
5:28 nice fart
ToLose Georgoudas 😂😂😂 OMG I can’t stop laughing
I get it, it looks like an Aston. So what? A car with the looks of an Aston and the powertrain of a Ferrari, that’s the dream.
I love the Roma!
Aston martin
Chris, you always said you don’t understand much design and aesthetics.
Well, this is the case.
What matters in car design is not if the side glass is identical, virtually every car makes shares glass houses and windshields.
What matters in car design is proportion, and proportions in the Vantage and in the Roma are completely different.
Yep, I feel like I'm in a Twilight Zone episode hearing people say the Roma looks just like an Aston Martin. They even say it has a DB11 grille, but that only makes sense if it was upside down and inside out. Is everyone going blind or something?
Mike W. Dash I think people have an obsessive perception of the finer details, and focus all their attention on those, forgetting to look at a car as a whole.
Why? Cause it’s easier to spot similarities rather than differences.
These are the people that will look at the car in the flesh for the first time and will say “Actually, this car is much better”, cause only in real life you can see volume and proportion as they really are.
Unbelievable how good the db9's still looks given they've been made so long ago. They never age! A classic in the making?
You haven’t got a clue fellaz Roma is absolutely the right move for ferrari. Go and drive snd own one then make comparisons to Aston
mesud sali further more, have you seen the interior of the aston? For that reason alone I would buy a Ferrari.
Lol, basically if you are gonna produce an "affordable" Luxus GT in the future pay attention: it will look like an Aston Martin! Lol, please stop. Roma looks similar to the Aston or any gt, but so much more beautiful actually. And we can say the same things about so many cars on the market nowadays. Ridiculous
Everybody say "it's look like aston martin", not to me. I think it's look like mach 5 from speed racer cartoon movie, and it's look classic and elegant, i love it
I disagree with almost everything Chris just said, except for the part about the F12.
Ferrari ruined itself, I've owned three and just watched the company go public and sell their soul. So many better options
Oh no I think the 812 looks better than the f12 all day long
England, Italy, and France are the same, why? Simple: THE NORMAN CONQUEST, England is a Norman country LATÍN-ROMANCE CULTURE, that’s why England, Italy and France are similar countrys. THE NORMAN RULES
the Anglo-Saxons lost everything to the Normans
No we don’t need to celebrate the Roma.
Thank you Chris.
The prancing horse can also make wrong cars, but if they are called....... FERRARI!!!!!
Another planet.
I have seen this car in person, and is much more than I was expecting!!!!!!!
This is when I like what Chris has to say. He is on point about modern designs in cars. I hope they keep Him on this show for many, many, many years to come.
Yeah but Aston Martin don't have a car with the same elegance and beauty as the Roma.
looks like an Aston???....looks way better!
I've never seen the Roma in person, but when you stack the pic beside the Aston they don't look much at all alike. No more than any two modern front engine GTs. I mean, the Roma isn't completely unique, but it certainly isn't a rip off. I actually think it's a proper Ferrari. Again, I've never even seen one though...
The irony is the F12 has the same window line and looks more like the Aston than the Roma.
Chris Harris has turned into a grumpy old man. I miss the old Chris.
... It's the stupid young ones that make us all turn grumpy eventually!
The Roma is an hommage to the old Ferrari's from the late 50s and 60s. And Aston Martins looked like Ferraris back in the days. So you dont really seem to know Ferrari and Aston history well. The Lusso, the GTOs etc..
ua-cam.com/video/_H7Lnj8zhM8/v-deo.html
I would rather have the 812
I would rather have a 330 GT from the sixties...
I would rather have the f12 with 812's interior
599 gto all the way
How about a 458.....
The 812 is 4 times more expensive
I really like Chris Harris but he seems to hate Ferraris, the Roma is a gorgeous car and while it may look similar to the Aston here and there I think it looks better than the Aston from all angles, especially when you see them in person, plus the Aston has a big problem too, IT'S NOT A FERRARI
He doesn't hate them, he holds some of them in extremely high regard. They're just the Rolex of car manufacturers, meaning many of their models are made for people that want to buy a supercar, but don't really know cars. He's just openly critical of cars that miss the mark (in his opinion, of course), and he's even endured a press car ban from Ferrari before for bad mouthing their cars, which is truly pathetic of them.
