I think it sounds fine, but I'd prefer it to be Dino 2.0 :p Ferrari used to have the Daytona… so using US names isn’t new to them… I think it sounds fine, but I’d prefer it to be Dino 2.0 :p

At least if they use German names, it would be better. Even American muscle cars don't use US state/capital name. Yes, there are family cars using American city/park names, but those are family cars/MPV/SUV (Chevy Malibu/Colorado, Hyundai Santa Fe/Tucson, Kia Sedona, Toyota Sequoia, Chrysler Sebring, Dodge Dakota/Durango, GMC Yukon). Murano, Sorento, Monte Carlo & Milan are nice model names named after Italian places, and these names have been used for Nissan, Kia, Chevy & Mercury. But, Ferrari have used American name before, for its 575 Maranello model named as Ferrari Superamerica; which I think is an ugly name. I dont expect Ferrari to use American names.
