Mangled supercar

We're fielding this one out to you, avid TopGearers: can you guess what this mangled piece of junk used to be?

It apparently climbed a mountain pass in France after which the engine caught fire and, as you can quite clearly see, made it quite dead.

Now, using a bit of digital nous, it shouldn't be that hard to figure out what it was. Principally because there is a big website name plastered all over the pic in handy-to-read lettering.

But before you head off and find out what supercar it used to resemble, have a guess. Go on, you know you want to. Then you can cry. And cry you must.

Hmmmm.... I'd say a Ferrari 458 Italia because of the rim it looks typically Ferrari and I as well guess that it has been black... Am I right?
