Video: Ferrari 599 GTO vs Ferrari 458 Italia






Marchettino had the chance to catch two of the most impressive Ferraris in video as they were pitted up against each other, but not in your typical 0-60 mph fashion. These two supercars were battling it out to determine whose engine sounded better. Don’t worry though, you’ll still see some racing action.
IN the video, a white Ferrari 599 GTO and a red Ferrari 458 Italia are shown revving their engines, then accelerating and downshifting on the track!
The Ferrari 599 GTO is powered by a V12 engine delivering a total of 670 HP at 8250 rpm with a maximum torque of 620 Nm at 6500 rpm. It rockets the car from 0 to 60 mph in just 3.35 seconds, while top speed goes up to 208 mph. The Ferrari 458 Italia gets a 4.5 Liter V8 engine equipped with the traditional Ferrari flat crankshaft that produces 570 HP at a rather high 9000 RPM.
Which of the two engines do you think sounds better? Watch the video and decide for yourself!
