Manhart MH4 GTR II: A Stunning 702-Horsepower Version of the BMW M4

Tuning studio Manhart Performance from Wuppertal, Germany, has unveiled its take on the current generation BMW M4 coupe G82. This modified version, named MH4 GTR II, is as impressive as the factory limited editions of this model.

BMW recently celebrated the 50th anniversary of its sports M division with two exceptional sports cars: the BMW M4 CSL, boasting 550 horsepower and limited to 1,000 units, and the even more exclusive BMW 3.0 CSL, with 560 horsepower and limited to just 50 units.

Both models have already sold out. However, for those looking to own an equally remarkable sports car, experienced tuners like Manhart are ready to step in and help.

Manhart already offered its version of a BMW M4 in the last generation of the model (F82), so the new model is called MH4 GTR II, the letters GTR stand for Gran Turismo Racing.

As a donor model tuner is ready to take one of thousands of BMW M4 CSL, but also will do a regular coupe BMW M4 Competition, which has a 3.0-liter row petrol «bi-turbo» S58 giving «only» 510 hp and 650 Nm.

Anyway, the appearance of the car largely repeats stock M4 CSL, but, certainly, in interpretation of Manhart — a unique carbon fiber body kit from the tuner makes the appearance of a sports car even more aggressive.

The new dodger includes 18 details, including a more relief hood with contrast trim, a front splitter in combination with side spoilers, wider sills with stepped relief, consisting of three parts, a rear spoiler and a new rear diffuser.

Rounding out the look are openwork 20-inch Forged+ 1 forged wheels from Yido Performance, shod in Michelin 275/30 ZR 20 tires in the front and 295/30 ZR 20 in the rear.

The interior features a Manhart Clubsport semi-safety cage with Schroth 4-point harness attachments, and Manhart mats are laid on the floor. The car also comes with a branded carbon fiber helmet Manhart.

The S58 engine has received a new MHtronik Powerbox and a new stainless steel exhaust system topped with carbon-ceramic nozzles.

The output is increased to 702 hp and 880 Nm. Eight-speed automatic remains standard, and the drive depends on the original model: the M4 CSL has it only in rear, while the M4 Competition is offered with both rear and all-wheel drive.

Manhart MH4 GTR II coupe has lowered suspension with adjustable H&R springs.

The brakes on the demo model are stock, but at the customer’s request Manhart is ready to offer an upgrade for them as well.

The price and dynamic characteristics of the Manhart MH4 GTR II have not been announced yet.
