Based on BMW M3 Cabrio (E92)

A BMW M3 Cabrio (E92) has been transformed into a Manhart MH3 V8 R Biturbo with an X6 M engine for the 2012 Essen Motor Show.
Earlier this week we showed you Manhart's tweaked BMW M5 and now we have a closer look at their tuning program for the M3 Cabrio. The most important change is under the hood where the car features the V8 4.4-liter twin-turbo engine of the X6 M equipped with a carbon fiber cover. Through software optimization, the power unit has been tweaked to produce 655 hp (488 KW) and 719 lb-ft (955 Nm) of torque.
By removing the electronic top speed limiter, this modified M3 Cabrio can reach a top speed of more than 199 mph (320 km/h). They also installed an Akrapovic Evolution Titanium exhaust system with a sports catalytic converter and four 90mm tailpipes. Stopping power comes from X6 M-sourced 396mm drilled brake discs at the front and 374mm discs at the back with four-piston calipers.
Also from the X6 M is the six-speed automatic transmission which was equipped with a differential lock to provide better traction. It comes with front 9x20 wheels with high-performance 255/35ZR20 tires and rear 12x20 alloys covered by 305/25ZR20 rubbers. This heavily modified M3 Cabrio has also received a MHR suspension system by KW with in-house adjustments.

Sweet :inlove:. But not a fan of the bigger power bulge.

Wonder how it will run against a sc M3.

Agree 100% with the power bulge. It is just too big. Other than that the car looks hot.:inlove: But it has lost that epic M3 V8 sound.:thumbdo:

Forget the sound being disappointing, you should see a video of how it accelerates. The revs only go to around 7000rpm, and on the M3's dash you think something is wrong as there's an extra 2000rpm at your disposal which you can't use.

The auto box lets it down as well, however they are currently working on a project with the F10 M5 engine and DCT box. Interesting.....
