Manhart MH2 700 II based on BMW M2 (G87)

Leave a comment

Manhart continues to show why one of the world’s best tuners of BMW cars, and their latest project is the MH2 700 II. It is based on a car that has been the basis for the projects of this German tuner several times, the BMW M2 (G87).

This is not the first time that Manhart “plays” with the last generation of this model powered by an ICE. In April, we saw a unique edition based on this model, the Manhart MH2 GTR II 01 OF 01.

The car is finished in black with a decal set in Champagne, which is standard for most Manhart projects. It is equipped with a carbon kit that includes front bumper inserts, side skirts, and a front spoiler, kidney grille, hood, rear diffuser, rear spoiler and underbody by Alpha-N. Customers can choose between Variant 4 suspension kit or high adjustable spring kit and suspension tuning.

The interior has undergone certain changes. The front seats were retained while the rear seats were removed. A roll bar, harnesses by Schroth with belt tensioner and Manhart floor mats are installed.

The MH2 700 II got a new stainless steel exhaust system with valve control, sport downpipes with 200 cell HJS catalytic converters, 4 x 110 mm Manhart tailpipes in mate black. Customers can also choose a combination of a stainless steel exhaust system with valve control, race downpipes without catalytic converters, OPF-Delete pipes with 200 cells HJS catalytic converters and 4 x 110 mm Manhart tailpipes in matte black.

Under the hood is a 3.0-L biturbo engine (S58) with 748 hp (550 kW) and 664 lb-ft (900 Nm) of torque, mated to an 8-speed automatic transmission. That’s a significant increase in power compared to the original model with 460 hp (338 kW) and (550 Nm) of torque.

The price of the upgrade has not been announced.

Manhart MH5 800E based on the BMW M5

In June, BMW presented the seventh generation and most powerful M5 ever, and it didn’t take long for the German tuner Manhart to present its project based on this car, the Manhart MH5 800E (G9x).

The car is painted in Matte Black with standard gold stripes on both sides and a stripe that runs from the front fascia over the roof to the rear, making it look even more aggressive. Compared to the standard M5, the MH5 800E is equipped with a new front lip spoiler with an additional pair of wings, Concave One rims, a thin two-piece rear wing and a more aggressive diffuser, and buyers can also choose a carbon fiber hood. Also, further technical upgrades such as new suspension solutions to refine the agility and lowering of the M5 are planned.

All components are also compatible with the BMW M5 Touring that was presented in August, and it should be noted that the entire body kit with front spoiler lip, side skirts, diffuser and a rear spoiler is also under development.

There are still many unknowns, but what we know for now is that the MH5 800E will be powered by a 4.4-L biturbo V8 engine combined with an electric motor with a total power of about 800 hp (588 kW), paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission. By comparison, the factory BMW M5 has 727 hp (542 kW) and 737 lb-ft (1,000 Nm) of torque. That’s enough power to push a 2.5-ton car from 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) in 3.5 seconds with a top speed of 305 km/h (190 mph). It is equipped with a 14.8 kWh battery that enables an electric range of up to 40 kilometers.

The price of the upgrade is not known.

Manhart Supra GR 550 with 550 HP

MANHART Supra GR 550 is a new project of the German tuner, which is considered one of the best in the world when it comes to German cars, but here and there they also upgrade cars of other brands. This time it’s the Toyota GR Supra.

The car is built on the same platform as the BMW Z4, and it is not the first time that Manhart has upgraded the Supra GR model, as we saw a similar project in 2020. However, this time the car is equipped with a carbon bodykit that makes the Supra GR look like the long-speculated high-performance GRMN flagship. These include a new rear wing, new diffuser, front splitter and side skirts with integrated fins. Buyers can also choose optional carbon side mirror housings and taillight covers, as well as a set of black and red decals. The body kit costs 13,500 euros, but the components can be purchased separately.

The biggest change is under the hood where the now turbocharged 3.0-L twin-power turbo engine (B58) delivers 550 hp (404 kW) and 568 lb-ft (770 Nm) of torque. They achieved this by installing a new turbocharger, ARMAspeed carbon intake, radiator, MHtronic module and a stainless steel exhaust system from F1 Exhaust, which comes with an optional downpipe. The body can be lowered thanks to a set of H&R springs or Variant 3 coilover suspension by KW, which further improves handling.

The car is mounted on a set of 20″ Concave One rims wrapped in 255/30 and 295/25 tires, in combination with H&R wheel spacers.
