Ferrari Roma Spider

A Ferrari for the long way round

The Ferrari Roma Spider has the pace and sound you expect from a Ferrari, but its character is closer to a grand tourer than a track-focused car. The twin-turbo V8 responds eagerly when the road opens up, while the automatic transmission makes slow Downtown traffic easier to live with. On Sheikh Zayed Road, it feels most at home covering distance rather than darting between lanes.

Lower the roof for an evening drive along Jumeirah Beach Road or around the Palm. In Dubai’s midday heat, you may prefer to keep it closed and save the open-air driving for later. Take speed bumps and steep car park ramps with care, as you would in any low sports car.

Best plans for the Roma Spider

This is a good choice for a birthday, a couple’s trip or a photo shoot that calls for a convertible Ferrari. It also makes a memorable arrival at a hotel valet without being out of place on a longer drive to Abu Dhabi. The rear seats give you some flexibility, though adults will be more comfortable in the front, particularly on a longer journey.

If you are planning to carry several large cases, consider your luggage before choosing it for an airport run. The Roma Spider makes more sense when the drive itself is part of the plan.

Engine, seats and rental details

The Roma Spider is a two-door convertible with four seats, a 3.9L twin-turbo V8 producing 612 hp, an automatic transmission and a petrol engine. Those are serious performance figures, but you do not need an empty road to appreciate its relaxed, open-top side.
