MANHART MH2 700 based on the BMW M2 Competition

German tuner Manhart is among the best if not the best when it comes to German sports cars, and their latest creation is the MANHART MH2 700 based on the BMW M2 Competition.

This is not the first time that Manhart calls its car MH2, because in early 2022 we saw the MH2 630 also based on the M2 Competition. However, unlike that model, this time the car got more power but also some better technical and aerodynamic solutions.

This MH2 700 is covered in black livery with mint green details. It is equipped with carbon components such as a CS-style bonnet, front spoiler, side skirts, a rear spoiler lip, a diffuser, and a Clubsport rear wing. There are also stainless steel exhaust system with valve control, 4 x 100 mm MANHART tailpipes in matte black, MANHART Race downpipes, MANHART OPF Delete replacement pipes made of stainless steel including 300-cell catalytic converters, front six-piston callipers on 395×34 mm discs and rear four-piston callipers on 380×30 mm discs.

Inside, there are Recaro Sportster CS seats, a MANHART Clubsport roll bar, mint green accents and an AWRON auxiliary display.

Under the hood is a 3.0-liter biturbo engine with 715 hp (526 kW) and 601 lb-ft (815 Nm) of torque. As a reminder, the M2 Competition is powered by the same engine but with 410 hp (302 kW) and 406 lb-ft (550 Nm) of torque, and the power has been increased thanks to a whole series of hardware optimizations and ECU remapping. It is mounted on matte black 20″ Concave One wheels wrapped in 255/30 ZR20 and 295/25 ZR20 tires.

The cost of the upgrade is unknown.

2024 Mercedes-Benz GLA 45 S 4Matic+

At the beginning of the year, Mercedes-Benz presented a new generation of the GLA model, and just half a year later, a refreshed edition of this model, the Mercedes-Benz GLA 45 S 4Matic+, arrived on the market.

The GLA 45 S 4Matic+ has a new grille with a different radiator grille, redesigned intakes, new LED headlights that now have new light signatures (Multibeam LED headlights are an option), an AMG logo is placed on the hood, wide wheel arches in body color, new rear LED lights, red brake calipers, and 19-inch wheels.

Inside, there is a new AMG Performance steering wheel, a redesigned MBUX infotainment system with AMG screen design, which supports Apple CarPlay and Android Auto systems. Customers can order the interior with a combination of Artico faux leather in Sage Grey/Black and Microcut microfiber available in Bahia Brown. Mercedes-AMG now also offers the option of Red Pepper red/black leather seat covers.

Under the hood is a 2.0L turbocharged four-cylinder engine with 416 hp (306 kW) and 369 lb-ft (500 Nm) of torque. That’s quite enough power to push the car from 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) in 4.3 seconds with a top speed of 270 km/h (168 mph). The engine is paired with an eight-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission.

When it comes to price, Mercedes-Benz has not announced how much the new GLA 45 S 4Matic+ will cost.

Hennessey Camaro ZL1 Exorcist Final Edition with 1,000 HP

American hypercar manufacturer and high-performance vehicle creator, Hennessey Performance, has unveiled its latest work, the Hennessey Camaro ZL1 Exorcist Final Edition, based on the Chevrolet Camaro.

The Chevrolet Camaro is retiring next year, and Hennessey is saying goodbye to this car in a great way, producing 57 examples of the super powerful car. The ZL1 Exorcist Final Edition is powered by a 6.2-liter LT4 V8 engine with 1,000 hp (735 kW) and 996 lb-ft (1,350 Nm) of torque. It reaches 62 mph (100 km/h) in just over 2 seconds with a top speed of 217 mph (350 km/h). As a reminder, the standard Camaro is powered by the same engine with 650 hp (478 kW) and 650 lb-ft (881 Nm) of torque.

Hennessey does not focus on design, but on the engine. So, the power is increased thanks to a bigger compressor, better air intake and an improved fuel system with a new pump and nozzles. The engine also features ported cylinder heads and new camshafts, and upgraded components include valves, springs, lifters, pushrods, high-flow catalytic converters and more.

Hennessey plans to produce only 57 examples of this super powerful car.
