The RAZR from Motorola was probably one of the best stylish and sleek models of all times. While the RAZR achieved success everywhere (especially in the US), the RAZR2 released last year didn't really catch on to the trend. Flip phones no longer seem to be the in-thing like they used to be a few years ago.

Last year, we did the RAZR2 V8 , which did improve on many of the original RAZR's flaws but lacked modern day features like 3G support and had an average battery life. Then came the V9, which added 3G and expandable memory.

As we've seen earlier, a few manufacturers have tied up with car makers to create phones bearing its brand (like Fly and Hummer or Asus and Lamborghini). Today we review the Ferrari-clad Motorola RAZR2 V9, so let's take this baby for a spin and see if it has enough juice to satisfy the brand's fanatics.
