As we all know, when it comes to supercars, you can't miss out on a big name as Ferrari. Nowadays, the  most popular car on sale, from the Italian manufacturer is the 458 Italia.
And it's easy to see why. It's great looking, has a lot of power and the performance to go with it. It also has an accordingly high price tag, starting somewhere around $200,000.

In the video we're showing you today, this expensive supercar goes against a much more modest BMW, more exactly an M3. With an ESS Supercharger, sure, but even so, the price of the Bimmer is nowhere close to the Ferrari.

Judging by the fact that the supercharger is called VT625, the M3 should have around 600 HP coming out of the S65 4-liter V8 engine and that is a lot. Paired with the 7-speed DCT gearbox, this car is amazingly fast.

But is it fast enough to defeat a Ferrari 458? See for yourself.
