The Ferrari Roma is a wonderful sports car. With its elegant lines and beautiful profile. And this one-of-a-kind Roma Spider doesn't look bad either, with nappa leather, wood and special laser-engraved accents. You don't always have to use aluminum or carbon for a purebred sports car.
For this particular model, Ferrari collaborated with Montblanc and modeled the open Roma model after the Meisterstück fountain pen. Yes, there was a model for the car writing utensil. It is one of a number of special Ferrari models created as part of the Tailor Made customization program, which introduces a host of new manufacturing techniques.
For example, Ferrari used laser etching on many elements. In this Rome, the compass flower and the geographical coordinates of Maranello are stamped into the engine mask. The automaker also used recycled tire threads for the interior stitching, used recycled aluminum for body parts, and introduced nappa leather for the seats and dashboard.
But it's the wood that matters most: Ferrari used wood from controlled sources for the tonneau cover, side wings and rear floor. The front floor mats even have a proper wood texture, and the wood door sill trims feature gold Ferrari badges on both sides.
The car is painted in a beautiful Oro Mida color, not seen on many modern Ferraris, and comes with a matching Meisterstück pen in the same shade. The one-of-a-kind pen is finished with handcrafted solid Au750 gold and platinum accents and features a custom motif to match the Roma bonnet motif.
However, these special Roms will not be delivered to the customer - at least not yet. The car is on display as part of an exhibition at the Enzo Ferrari Museum in Italy. We can only imagine how much this car cost to build.
