No matter which angle I look, the car just does not look like a Ferrari.

How about in a historical color ?

it's not about the color. 

To me it's more about the harmony of the design and how every part of the car fit with other parts. How every surface flow into the one next to it gracefully, how a Ferrari should look like. Ferrari never had a 'heritage' shape to go with, but all Ferraris have a Ferrari 'look'.

Even the much maligned FF, Enzo or even the La Ferrari have that 'flow', the Roma doesn't. The headlights are at adds wit the hood and the hood are at odds with the grill/bumper. The only graceful bit on the Roma is the green house but the rear end treatment is in sharp contrast to the roof line. 

Hard to describe as its' a 'feel' thing. Take away the badge and a Roma can easily be a Maserati, an Alfa Romeo, Aston Martin, Corvette, Mercedes, anything but a Ferrari.
