German tuning professional Manhart has a knack for tuning turbocharged V8 BMWs just like the MH5 GTR (an intense model of the M5 Competition version) and MHX6 700WB (an X6 M on steroids). It has now affixed its attractions over again to the BMW M8 Competition coupe, and the brand new automobile has greater of the entirety than the ultimate MH8 800 that debuted greater than a yr ago.
And in contrast to the preceding MH8 800, the brand new automobile isn’t sporting the standard gold and black Manhart paint combo. In addition, handiest ten gadgets will ever exist, making it a clearly limited-version version subsequently its reliable name: MH8 800 Limited 01/10.
As predicted from a Manhart creation, the MH8 800 capabilities a carbon-wealthy exterior, and you’ll locate it withinside the hood cutouts, the front spoiler, facet skirts, and rear diffuser. This specific instance is sporting matte blue paint (with racing stripes) and has color-coded 21-inch Manhart Spider wheels wrapped in wider low-profile overall performance tires. In addition, the reduced stance is courtesy of Manhart height-adjustable springs with the aid of using KW suspensions.
Under the hood is wherein maximum of the magic happens. The latest MH8 800 keeps the inventory M8 Competition’s 4.0-liter bi-faster V8 engine. But with a brand new Manhart faster overall performance kit, a Manhart intercooler, and a remapped ECU, it now pumps out 823 horsepower and 774 pound-toes of torque, pretty an uptick over the inventory automobile’s 625-horsepower and 553 pound-toes torque output.
With that a good deal power, it scoots to 60 mph from a useless prevent in below 2.6-seconds. It additionally reaches 60 mph to 124 mph in 5.7-seconds. It’s now no longer handiest nicely quick, however we wager it sounds the commercial enterprise with a changed exhaust and quad four-inch carbon-clad tailpipes. Manhart will gladly deployation racing downpipes with out cats or a stainless-steel OPF-delete exhaust machine for extra cash if you want greater sound.
Of course, each issue of the Manhart MH8 800 is completely customizable with the aid of using the buyer, consisting of the indoors. Standard fitment is Manhart’s carbon refinement bundle that provides carbon accents at the steerage wheel and paddle shifters. Still, you could usually fee a completely bespoke indoors together along with your private desire of colors, materials, and finishes.
Manhart failed to say how a good deal all this wonderment will cost. BMW has reduced the MSRP of its 2022 BMW M8 Competition from $155,500 to $139,500 (now no longer consisting of vacation spot fees). After factoring withinside the mods, you’ll probable grow to be with a sub-$150,000 bill, now no longer a awful fee to pay for a limited-version, supercar-baiting grand tourer.
