German tuning specialist Manhart Racing GmbH has taken the wraps off a special little BMW M3 that will put any GTS variant to shame.
The big story here is that the standard 4.0-liter atmospheric V8 has been ditched in favor of the same 4.4-liter twin-turbo that’s also used in the X5 and X6 M. But that doesn’t mean it’s as powerful as say an M5. Oh no, the biturbo makes 750 horsepower and 910 Nm of torque.

Weight has also been stripped wherever possible, so the MH3 V8 RS Clubsport offers a very supercar-like a power to weight ratio of 2.12 kg/hp, so it should not surprise you that it only takes it 3.2 seconds to reach 100 km/h, while top speed is rated at 350 km/h (217 mph).

Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s. He also loves local car culture from all over the world, so don't be surprised to see him getting excited about weird Japanese imports, low-rider VWs out of Germany, replicas from Russia or LS swaps down in Florida.
