Manhart MH4 GTR based on the BMW M4 DTM Championship Edition

March 16, 2023 Francis Mitterrand

One of the best tuners in the world, the German company Manhart, presented its new work, the Manhart MH4 GTR. The car is based on the M4 DTM Championship Edition (2016), one of the most popular models for tuners when it comes to the BMW M4/M3.

The MH4 GTR is powered by a 3.0-Liter biturbo in-line six-cylinder engine (S55) with 708 hp (520 kW) and 723 lb-ft (980 Nm) of torque. As a reminder, BMW has 500 hp (368 kW) and 443 lb-ft (600 Nm) of torque. The increase in power was achieved thanks to a remapped ECU and a turbo performance kit that includes a turbo upgrade and the installation of an intercooler by CSF, a carbon intake by ARMAspeed and new MANHART aluminum charge pipes. The performance of the car is not known, but if we consider that the M4 DTM reaches 62 mph in 3.8 seconds, we are confident that the MH4 GTR is a very fast car.

The car is finished in white with numerous carbon add-on parts that give it a sporty look. It is equipped with carbon fiber front spoiler lip, side skirts, mirror caps and rear lip spoiler on the trunk lid, large rear wing, rear diffuser, stainless steel exhaust system with valve control and four 100-millimetre tailpipes. It sits on a set of 20″ Silk Matt Black Concave One wheels wrapped in 255/35 ZR20 front and 295/30 ZR20 rear Michelin Cup 2 tires.

Inside, the Recaro carbon bucket seats and a roll cage were retained, and an Awron display was added. There’s standard air conditioning, parking sensors, auto-dimming mirrors, adaptive LED headlights and navigation.

BMW only produced 200 examples of the M4 DTM, and Manhart did not say what the price of the upgrade package is.

Mercedes-AMG GT63 S E Performance with 880 hp

March 10, 2023 Francis Mitterrand

One of the latest works of German tuner Mansory is Mercedes-AMG’s most powerful production car ever built, the Mercedes-AMG GT63 S E Performance.

Mercedes-AMG GT63 S E Performance is powered by a 4.0L biturbo V8 engine combined with an electric motor with a total power of 843 hp (629 kW) and 1,084 lb-ft (1,400 Nm) of torque. It reaches 62 mph (100 km/h) in 2.9 seconds with a top speed of 196 mph (316 km/h). However, Mansory engineers did their best to boost the engine’s output to 880 hp (647 kW) and 1,099 lb-ft (1,490 Nm) of torque. That’s enough to push the car to 62 mph in 2.8 seconds and the top speed has been increased to 199 mph (320 km/h).

The German tuner has prepared a special equipment kit that includes new carbon body components such as a spoiler on the trunk lid, a redesigned engine cover with a central air flow opening, mirror covers, side air intakes and side skirts. It is mounted on a set of black 22-inch “Type Y.5” rims.

Inside, the sports seats are upholstered in gray leather with yellow stitching, while the yellow headrest features a “Mansory” logo. Leather also covers the door panels, dashboard and center console, and there are also yellow seat belts.

The car looks much more aggressive, but it will not appeal to customers who prefer more discreet solutions.

March 10, 2023 Francis Mitterrand

One of the best tuner companies in the world, Mansory, has again prepared a special equipment kit for the Ferrari SF90 Spider. After the Mansory F9XX, based on the Ferrari SF90, was revealed last year, now the German tuner presents the Mansory F9XX – Tempesta Celeste.

Although the SF90 Spider is a powerful car with impressive performance, Mansory decided to add a few more horsepower. F9XX – Tempesta Celeste is powered by a 4.0 liter biturbo V8 engine combined with three electric motors now has a total power of 1,100 hp (809 kW) and 723 lb-ft (980 Nm) of torque. That’s a significant increase in power considering that the standard SF90 Spider has 780 hp (574 kW) and 590 lb-ft (800 Nm) of torque. Power is transmitted to all wheels via an 8-speed dual-clutch transmission. It reaches 62 mph in just 2.4 seconds with a top speed of 221 mph (355 km/h).

The extreme aerodynamic package brings a new, more impressive look to the supercar from Maranello. There are new lightweight carbon body components, a two-piece rear spoiler featuring an additional LED curved line, modified suspension, a new set of lightweight 21″ and 22″ forged wheels wrapped in 255/30 ZR21 (front) and 335/25 ZR22 (rear) tires.

Inside, the carbon seats are upholstered in high-quality leather, which also covers the dashboard, door panels and armrests, and there are light blue floor mats.

Mansory will produce only three examples of the Mansory F9XX – Tempesta Celeste. The price of the equipment kit is not known.
