If You Thought BMW’s M2 CS Was Cool, Manhart’s “MH2 GTR” Will Blow Your Mind 4 Mar 2021, 21:17 UTC ·

In our day and age, most self-respecting petrolheads will at least have heard about Germany’s Manhart Performance. Ever since Christoph Erfurt laid its foundation over three decades ago, the Wuppertal-based enterprise has been on a steady climb towards the top of Europe’s tuning food chain. As you browse the company s extensive range, it’s not exactly hard to see why these folks are among the nation s finest tuners.
We checked out Manhart’s inventory on several occasions to drool over some of their juiciest undertakings, such as a breathtaking Toyota Supra and a reworked Porsche 911 Turbo S that goes by the name of “TR850.”

Mansory’s Second Ford GT Conversion Is Heart Attack Material for Purists 3 Mar 2021, 16:56 UTC ·

For many petrolheads out there, hearing the name Mansory will be enough to send shivers down their spines, and we can’t blame them. At the end of the day, Germany’s controversial tuner does have a habit of taking things to the extreme, so polarizing opinions from the public are a must. More often than not, the company’s four-wheeled creatures end up being outlandish, invasively colorful, and even downright shocking in terms of aesthetics.
If you ask me, these folks appear to be completely oblivious to the idea of discrete customization, but I’ll have to admit that I’m actually quite fond of Mansory’s work on some undertakings, such as their Lamborghini Aventador SVJ-based fiend dubbed “Cabrera,” or a Bentley Continental GT Convertible that looks fit for Neo, to name but a couple.
