With a starting price of $226,000, the Ferrari Roma is one of the cheapest supercars you can buy in 2022. It’s basically tied with the Portofino for Prancing Horse affordability, and because a turbocharged V8 resides at the front, some don’t even look at this as a supercar. However, the Roma is one of the most attention-grabbing modern Ferraris, and there is a good way to take it to the next level: the Mansory body kit.
A few months ago, RoCars did an amazing spotlight video on the Mansory Ferrari Roma which you can check out at the bottom of this story. It’s one of the most viewed clips about the Roma on YouTube, and many have said Mansory totally changed their view of this supercar model.
Now that very car, with its mix of Sanguis Red paint and forged carbon fiber parts, is for sale. The location, a famous luxury car dealership called Hollmann International, where the walls are gold and every other employee seems to speak Russian. And you probably need to be some kind of Russian oligarch to afford this Roma because it costs about twice as much: €535,500 or €450,000 without tax if you’re going to ship it out of Europe. That would be about $550,000 converted to Kim Kardashian money, or about the price of a Rolls-Royce. Entry-level my exhaust!
Mansory did a full supercar conversion on the Ferrari Roma with most of the add-ons made from forged carbon fiber We start our examination at the front, where the car sports an extra chin spoiler and blades on the side of the bumper.
The hood is all-new and completely made of carbon, though most of it has been painted the same color as the body, Sanguis Red, which is made by Mansory and has been used all the way back on the Stallone, their controversial V12 from about a decade ago.
From the back, you can see that almost the entire rear bumper has been made of forged carbon, which looks like a natural mineral rather than a fabric covered in resin. The beefy exhaust pipes signal that this Roma isn’t stock, just like the oversized wheels.
Mansory messed with the electronics of Roma’s V8 engine and increased total output to 700 hp and 638 pound-feet (865 Newton-meters) of torque. After development, they tested with Vmax measuring equipment, reaching 206 miles per hour or 332 km/h, while the 0 to 62 mph sprint was dealt with in 3.1 seconds.
