Manhart Harnesses 815 HP Out of a BMW M5, Calls it MH5 800
MANHART MH5 800 is a striking super sedan and comes equipped with a 4.4-liter turbocharged V8 motor that produced 815 HP.
MANHART’s latest creation is a radical super sedan. The tuner’s new offering is called MANHART MH5 800, and it churns out 815 HP of maximum power, and the torque has been increased to 774 lb-ft, which is more powerful than any BMW car ever produced. The car is based on the current generation F90 BMW M5. MANHART’s signature silver or gold racing stripes have also been replaced by sportier black accents and matte red metallic wrap.
The car is powered by the same 4.4-liter twin-turbo V8 engine, as the standard M5, which was no slouch, to begin with. Named after the increased horsepower, MANHART decided to tap into the unused potential of the sedan.
The German tuner equipped the M5 with a turbo performance kit, carbon intake, and intercooler, all of which were produced in-house by MANHART.
The sedan is also equipped with MANHART ECU remap and comes complete which the company’s performance exhaust system. MANHART also upgraded the 8-speed automatic transmission for the sedan. Not only did MANHART increase M5’s output to insane levels, it even lowered the car by 1.8 inches to improve its handling. MANHART’s other modifications to this new sedan include a stainless rear silencer with valve control, downpipes without catalytic converters, and four tailpipes.
Customers can get ceramic or carbon treatment for the tailpipes. The MH5 800 is now perched on MANHART’s 21-inch Concave One light-alloy wheels, which are finished in a matte black paint scheme. MANHART also updated the car’s exterior styling by adding a rear spoiler lip, front spoiler, and rear diffuser.
MANHART’s masterful work also extends to the car’s interiors. One of the most significant changes in M5’s interior is the addition of a Rolls-Royce-style sky roof headliner with LED lights. Other additions to the interiors include paddle shifters on the steering wheel and carbon-fiber trim. Although MANHART hasn’t released a performance report, it is quite obvious that MH5 800 is a lot faster than the standard M5, which tops out at 190 MPH. MANHART’s customization will set you back by $ 54,585, in addition to the cost of the donor BMW M5.
