BMW Serie 1 M Coupé by Manhart Racing

Manhart Racing is back, and this time with the new BMW 1 Series M Coupé up its sleeve, a project that may not stand out aesthetically (personally, it doesn’t need to) but will mechanically thanks to very interesting work on the small six-cylinder engine that powers this wolf in sheep’s clothing.

Specifically, in terms of looks, we’re talking about bodywork changes thanks to the installation of black vinyls, 20-inch alloy wheels and a new rear diffuser, much more attractive and reworked to incorporate the new exhaust outlets. As a detail, the installation of a new sport suspension and BMW Performance seats with contrasting orange stitching are worth highlighting.

As you can see, the aesthetic changes are more than fair; the car doesn’t really need them, given how attractive a vehicle it is on screen. Now, on the mechanical side, we’re talking about something else entirely, since the work carried out on the small 3.0-litre inline six-cylinder has raised its output from the original 340 CV to 450 CV.
