Car vs motorcycle videos often useless but Motor Trend found two gorgeous Italian machines that are noble opponents. The 458 Italia features a 4.5-litre V8 that produces 557hp, accelerates from zero to 160 km/h in 7.0 seconds and does the quarter mile in 11.1 seconds. Ferrari’s already iconic car costs about $230,000. In the blue corner, there’s another expensive Italian machine, the Ducati 1198 S. The motorcycle is powered by a 1198cc V-twin that delivers 170hp at 9750rpm. The bike accelerates from zero to 160 km/h in just 5.1 seconds and does the quarter mile in 10 seconds flat. The 1198S carries a price tag of $22,000. On a racetrack, cars are usually faster. Are they? Let’s see the shootout! The video is pure entertainment for everybody.
