    I spoke to my dealer on Saturday. He said I would be pleasantly surprised. We will see.

    I have my old order sheet attached and will submit if I like what I see.

    Is it not a ROMA Spyder that's coming? Rather than a facelift PORTOFINO?

    A Roma Spyder seems redundant to me, but who knows. Then again, I don't understand the Roma and Portofino being positioned to closely to each other in price to begin with...

    Feels like counting the days until Christmas when I was a kid. The more I see it from various angles and with minimal camouflage, the more I like it. As gorgeous as the current Portofino is, the face is my least favorite angle. This looks better proportioned and more svelte.

    It’s the Portofino facelift that is coming. The Roma remains for now only a coupé.

    Literally just got out of my wife’s portofino after a 3 1/2 hour drive from Tahoe to SF....was a breeze. Feel relaxed and rested. Such a great car!

    Interesting. I wouldn't say the lights of my MY20 Portofino or front end were ever an issue for me at all. In fact I like the angle of the daytime running lights. What impressed me most about the Roma is the simplicity and cleanness of the design - no intakes, cut outs etc. My least favourite elements of the Roma are perhaps the front headlights and the rear active spoiler. I like the small upturn at the rear of the Portofino. I think the ultimate design is some degree of morphing of the two!! :)

    I am curious to see how this plays out for the Roma vs Portofino in terms of function and sales..

    To be fair, the info about the SF90 Spider was posted by @ppg70 in another thread.

    By the way, I was expecting a little teaser from Ferrari today, but nothing so far..

    The day is not finished, we should receive a teaser in the few hours - if we receive anything.

    Usually the launch is at around 9:00pm, isn’t it?

    I honestly don't remember the times of past teasers and it also seems strange that no automotive website has picked up the news about tomorrow's announcement (whatever It is). I have some doubts now, but we'll see.

    My sales rep alerted me that the global online reveal will begin at 9pm korean time and the reservations for the car will begin 1 week after that.

    Very excited!!

    I think for the first time ever, I'm going to need side-by-side comparison photos so I can discern the visual difference!

    Ok, so the exterior is the almost the same, headlights did not change like the Roma.

    Interior is also the same, the cluster did not go digital, and the seats and interior layout is the same.

    What's changed is the 620hp engine and 8 dct gear box AND thankfully, new 5 mode manettino.

    Arghhhhhhh
