BMW M3 and M4 – a new Manhart project

The BMW M3 and M4 are a new Manhart project. These are sports cars that have kept only the front grille compared to the previous model.

Manhart is currently developing new carbon aerodynamic parts such as the hood, front splitter, rear spoiler, and the diffuser.

The standard twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter engine will produce 600 hp. By installing the MANHART MHtronik Powerbox, engine power is increased to approximately 620 hp and 750 Nm of torque. Cat-back and OPF-back exhaust systems with twin carbon tailpipes are offered.

For better cornering control, there are lowering springs manufactured by H&R. Both models also feature 21-inch Concave One forged wheels, 265 / 30R21tyres on the front and 305 / 25R21 tires on the rear axle. Rims can have a Manhart gold stripe as an option.

All of the above includes Phase 1. Phase 2 is expected at the end of the year, when Manhart will take the M3 and M4 to the next level.

BMW 4 Series – a new AC Schnitzer project

Last year, BMW unveiled the 4 Series Coupe which provoked various comments. German company AC Schnitzer, which specializes in BMW cars, has tuned two models, the 430i and M440i.

In the M440i, AC Schnitzer has installed a new stainless steel exhaust system, a sports suspension with a set of springs that lower the car by 30 mm. The BMW M440i has a 3.0-liter six-cylinder engine with 420 hp and 443 lb-ft of torque.

The 430i has a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine with 296 hp and 347 lb-ft (470 Nm) of torque.

Both models feature a new set of 19 or 20-inch wheels in diamond cut, gray or black.

The price of the upgrade is not known, but the five-year warranty gives some peace of mind.

BMW X6 M

German company G-Power has transformed the BMW X6 M into a beast. Although it is an incredibly fast SUV, the G-Power has pushed the limits of its performance.

The standard BMW X6 M has a 4.4-liter V8 twin-turbo engine with 625 hp and 553 lb-ft of torque, which is more than enough for this SUV.

Upgrading the Stage 3, which includes a new set of turbos, a new exhaust system, new downpipes and a new ECU map. All of this allows the X6 to have 800 hp and 700 lb-ft of torque. This upgrade will cost you an additional $ 20,000. The listed price does not include good-looking add-ons like the ones in the photo.

Stage 2 increases power to 737 hp and 900 Nm of torque, which will cost you around $ 4,220 (€ 3,495). To achieve the stated performance, a stainless steel exhaust system with valve control and a sports downpipe is required, which costs around $ 4,220 (€ 3,495).

The tuned X6 M is expected to accelerate from 0 – 62 mph in less than 3.8 seconds.

The X6 M features a lowered suspension setup, as well as new decals all around and carbon fiber aero bits. G-Power also offers 23-inch wheels with high-performance tires, 315/25.
