Manhart MH5 GTR based on the BMW M5 CS

The German tuner Menhart has once again shown that it is the best when it comes to upgrading BMW cars. Ahead of the arrival of the new generation BMW 5 Series, Manhart took the opportunity to present the MH5 GTR based on the current BMW M5 CS (Competition Sport) model.

The MH5 GTR is finished in dark green with a gray decal set on both sides of the car as well as the entire length of the body. It is equipped with carbon front and rear spoilers, MANHART stainless steel exhaust system with valve control, four 100 mm tailpipes, MANHART Variant 4 coilover suspension by KW Suspensions, and Race tailpipes without catalytic converters, OPF Delete replacement pipes with 200-cell HJS catalytic converters and a MANHART OPF/GPF Deleter available on request. It sits on 21-inch aluminum wheels wrapped in 265/30 ZR21 (front) and 305/25 ZR21 (rear) Michelin tires.

Inside, the original interior decorated with the Manhart inscription has been retained. The carbon fiber sports seats are covered in black and red leather while the steering wheel is wrapped in Alcantara. Black leather also covers the door panels and dashboard. In the central part of the dashboard there is a 12.3-inch infotainment system screen.

When it comes to the powertrain, the MH5 GTR is powered by a 4.4-liter biturbo V8 engine with 788 hp (589 kW) and 690 lb-ft (935 Nm) of torque. A significant increase in power was achieved by installing a carbon air intake and the proven MHtronik auxiliary control unit. For the record, the standard M5 CS has 635 hp (467 kW) and 553 lb-ft (750 Nm) of torque.

The performance of the MH5 GTR has not been released, but it is known that the M5 CS reaches 62 mph in 3.0 seconds with a top speed of 189 mph (305 km/h).

BMW M3 with 720 HP

The latest generation BMW M3 is one of the most powerful production cars, but G-Power believes that the high-performance sedan deserves and can do more. That’s why they prepared three equipment packages that raise the engine power up to 720 hp.

The car is equipped with a new carbon kit that gives the BMW a more aggressive look. This includes a new front splitter, new side skirts, a Dynamic fixed rear wing, and many other components.

The M3 is powered by a 3.0-liter twin-turbo six-cylinder engine, which in the most powerful G3M ​​Bi-Turbo equipment package has 720 hp (529 kW) and 627 lb-ft (850 Nm) of torque. All this was achieved thanks to new software, a new exhaust system, hardware improvements and an improved ECU unit. It is mounted on a set of 20 and 21 inch (Hurricane RR and Hurricane RS) rims wrapped in 285/30 R20 (front) and 295/25 R21 (rear) tires.

With the other two packages, G-Power offers power increases to 670 hp (493 kW) and 620 hp (456 kW), with the same hardware but a different ECU unit.

The interior of the base BMW M3 has been retained. There are reinforced carbon fiber seats and a 12.3-inch digital touch screen, as well as a steering wheel with buttons that allow the driver to switch to sporty driving mode.

Manhart TR 900 based on the Porsche 911 (991) GT2 RS

After the Manhart TR 800, based on the Porsche 911 Turbo S, from the Wuppertal-based tuner workshop comes the TR 900. It is based on Porsche’s most powerful production car, the Porsche 911 (991) GT2 RS.

TR 900 is powered by a 3.8 L twin-turbo flat-six engine with 945 hp (695 kW) and 774 lb-ft (1,050 Nm) of torque. A significant increase in power, compared to the base Porsche 911 GT2 RS, which has 700 hp (515 kW) and 553 lb-ft (750 Nm) of torque, was achieved by combining an ECU remapping by Mapswitch with a turbo performance kit. Power is transmitted to the rear axle via an upgraded 7-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission.

Performance data has not been revealed, but we expect nothing less than what the 911 (991) GT2 RS can do, 62 mph in 2.7 seconds with a top speed of 211 mph (340 kph).

The car is painted in Midnight Dark Green with decorative stripes and lettering. It is equipped with carbon fiber add-on parts such as a front spoiler, side extensions, front frames for air intakes, side skirts and a diffuser with side extension plates. There are also TTH 1000 turbochargers, an intercooler kit from CSF, a larger front-mounted fan, a MANHART IPD aluminum manifold, and MANHART Downpipes Sport from Kline Innovation with 200-cell HJS catalysts.

Inside, the sports seats are upholstered in a combination of black leather and orange Alcantara with orange stitching, and the lower part of the dashboard is covered in black Alcantara. The door panels and steering wheel are covered in a combination of orange and black Alcantara, while the ceiling is covered in orange Alcantara. A safety roll cage is placed behind the seat.

When it comes to price, the Manhart TR 900 costs 550,000 EUR.
