Based on the G87 BMW M2, the Manhart MH2 700 II gets a whopping 738bhp, big wing, and styling options to take your baby M car to the next level.
If there’s something you can guarantee, it’s two buses arriving at the same time and Manhart tuning a BMW… By now you should have heard of German tuners Manhart, but if you haven’t, they’ve been modifying BMWs, and other cars, for decades now. And while the G87 M2 is still relatively new, that hasn’t stopped Manhart from creating a 738bhp powerhouse with a hint of nostalgia in that giant wing.
Tell me all about the Manhart MH2 700 II
Apart from that being a mouthful to read, the MH2 700 II is Manhart’s latest M2-based build, which can be purchased as a complete package or with individual parts. Essentially, it takes the extremely tunable S58 engine and cranks it up to 11 via a Power Control unit. Power is upped to 738bhp and 644lb ft of torque, and while there are no official performance figures to quote, we can be sure that the 0-62mph sprint will be significantly under the 4.0-second standard car. Elsewhere, customers have the option of a sports-catted downpipe and removal of the OPF filters, or opt for decat downpipes with sports catalytic convertors replacing the OPF.
Carbon fibre is the order of the day, with the front apron, splitter, bonnet/hood, side skirts and rear diffuser all featuring the lightweight stuff. The theme continues in the engine bay, where every hard plastic has been replaced with beautiful carbon fibre weave. And, you guessed it, the carbon fibre continues inside, with just about everything you see covered in it. Elsewhere inside you’ll find the removal of the rear seats with a clubsport-style rollcage installed.
On the chassis side of Manhart MH2 700 II, customers can opt for KW V3 coilovers as well as bigger brakes should they want to embark in track driving. In front of those brakes are Manhart’s Yido Series wheels finished in matte black 10.5×20 at the front and 11.5×21 at the rear.
