The 2023 Ferrari Roma car makes its debut in Dubai at Dourado Luxury Cars, arriving in a striking Grigio Titanio Metal finish that captures the model's understated, tailored elegance. As Ferrari's modern interpretation of la dolce vita, the Roma has quickly become one of the most sought-after Grand Tourers among discerning collectors in the UAE, and this particular example represents everything that makes the model so compelling in person.
Dubai's appetite for exceptional Grand Tourers has never been stronger, and the Roma slots neatly into a segment of the market that values both performance and everyday usability. For buyers exploring the wider spectrum of what's currently available, our Ferrari collection showcases the full breadth of Maranello's lineup, from front-engined Grand Tourers to mid-engined supercars, all held to the same standard of authenticity and condition that Dourado is known for across the region.
Those drawn specifically to the Roma's design language will also want to consider the marque's other offerings in showroom right now. Alongside this 2023 example, we also carry a 2022 Ferrari Roma in Avorio Beige, giving buyers a genuine choice of colourway and specification within the same model line - a rare opportunity in a market where Roma examples tend to move quickly.
Why the Roma Marks a Different Kind of Ferrari
When Ferrari unveiled the Roma, it deliberately steered away from the aggressive, track-focused visual language that defines much of the brand's recent output. Instead, the Roma channels the spirit of 1950s and 1960s Italian Grand Tourers - understated, beautifully proportioned, and built for effortless long-distance driving rather than lap times. The result is a car that feels as at home cruising along Jumeirah Beach Road as it does making an entrance outside a Downtown Dubai hotel.
This restraint is precisely what has made the Roma such a talking point since launch. It doesn't shout for attention the way some of its stablemates do, yet it carries an unmistakable presence once you understand what you're looking at. In a city as saturated with exotic metal as Dubai, that quieter confidence has become its own kind of statement.
Design and Presence in Grigio Titanio
The Grigio Titanio Metal finish on this particular Roma suits the car's identity perfectly. It's a sophisticated, restrained grey that shifts subtly under Dubai's intense sunlight, highlighting the sculpted bonnet lines and the long, sweeping roofline that gives the Roma its distinctive silhouette. Ferrari's designers drew heavily on the concept of "New Dolce Vita" when shaping this model, and the proportions - a long bonnet, a cabin pushed rearward, and a fastback profile - all nod to classic front-engined Ferraris of decades past.
Inside, the Roma continues this theme with a cabin that balances digital sophistication with tactile luxury. The dual-cockpit layout separates the driver and passenger environments, while the dashboard's minimalist design keeps the focus on craftsmanship rather than clutter.
What's Under the Bonnet
Beneath that elegant bodywork sits a twin-turbocharged V8 engine producing 612 hp, sending power through the rear wheels via Ferrari's eight-speed dual-clutch transmission. It's a formula that delivers genuinely rapid performance without compromising the Roma's identity as a car built for covering ground comfortably and confidently, rather than one built purely for the racetrack.
This balance of usable power and refinement is exactly why the Roma appeals so strongly to buyers in the UAE, where long, well-surfaced roads reward a car that can be driven hard when desired, yet remains composed and comfortable for everyday journeys around the city. Full technical details on the model are available directly from Ferrari's official website.
How the Roma Compares Within Our Ferrari Range
For buyers weighing up the Roma against other Ferrari models in our showroom, the comparison is instructive. The Ferrari 296 GTB, for instance, represents Ferrari's hybrid-powered mid-engined future, while cars such as the Ferrari 812 GTS lean into V12 theatre and open-top drama. The Roma sits apart from both, offering a more restrained, GT-focused experience that prioritises long-distance comfort and everyday drivability alongside genuine performance credentials.
Collectors seeking something even more distinctive may also be interested in our Ferrari 812 GTS 8XX, a 1-of-1 build by Onyx Concept, which demonstrates just how far personalisation can be taken within the Ferrari range currently held at Dourado.
Owning a Ferrari in Dubai
Dubai's roads and climate are, in many respects, ideally suited to a car like the Roma. Well-maintained highways, warm weather, and a culture that appreciates automotive craftsmanship all combine to make the emirate one of the strongest markets globally for models such as this. Whether used for daily commuting, weekend drives along the coast, or simply as a considered addition to a wider collection, the Roma performs its role with characteristic Italian flair.
Buyers considering a purchase should also factor in provenance and condition, particularly with a model as design-focused as the Roma, where paint finish and interior presentation contribute enormously to the ownership experience. Every vehicle at Dourado is presented with this in mind, ensuring buyers can view and assess each car with full confidence in its condition and history.
A Broader Choice of Luxury Metal
While the Roma is very much the star of this particular arrival, it forms part of a much wider showroom that spans multiple marques and body styles. Buyers exploring options beyond Ferrari are welcome to browse our Rolls Royce collection or our Land Rover collection, both of which reflect the same commitment to quality and choice found across our full inventory.
The 2023 Ferrari Roma is now available to view in person at Dourado Luxury Cars in Al Quoz. We invite serious buyers to visit our showroom, examine this Grigio Titanio example up close, and explore the rest of our current inventory to find the car that best suits your next chapter behind the wheel.
