A 102-year-old mom was seen riding in a Ferrari Roma with her Birkin bag in a viral TikTok video that quietly highlights the elegance of the grand tourer.
The video, filmed and shared by skincare entrepreneur Peter Thomas Roth, offers a rare public glimpse at the sleek Ferrari Roma in motion.
Known for its 3.9-liter twin-turbo V8 engine producing 612 horsepower, the Roma combines classic proportions with modern performance.
It is Ferrari’s take on a more restrained, refined driving experience, aimed at those who prefer sophistication over flash.

The Ferrari Roma features a minimalist cockpit, an eight-speed dual-clutch transmission, and a top speed of over 199 mph.
While this particular drive was slow and composed, the car’s performance potential is unmistakable.
Roth appears to favor models like the Roma that offer subtle design with serious power underneath.
Though not confirmed, this likely isn’t the only Ferrari in his garage, and the Roma may be just one example in a broader collection of high-end performance cars.
Roth’s 102-year-old mom, the Ferrari Roma, a Birkin bag, and a viral TikTok video came together in a way that instantly stood out to both car and fashion enthusiasts.
Despite the focus on the gentle drive, fans immediately recognized the Ferrari Roma’s distinctive lines and signature styling cues.
At the same time, the Birkin bag resting on the passenger’s lap signaled a level of taste and status that aligned with the car’s quiet luxury.
The viral TikTok video gained traction not for theatrics but for the visual clarity of luxury and restraint.
As subtle as it was, the moment captured more than a simple ride.
The presence of Roth’s 102-year-old mom inside a Ferrari Roma with a Birkin bag added a sense of lived-in luxury that rarely feels staged.
It offered a snapshot of affluence, design, and personal style without overstatement, leaving the car to do most of the talking.
