MANHART Gives the BMW M240i More Power Than the M2

As a seasoned gamer with a penchant for virtual racing and a soft spot for high-performance automobiles, I can’t help but be captivated by the MANHART MH2 450. Having spent countless hours honing my driving skills on the virtual tracks of Gran Turismo, I’ve come to appreciate the finer details that separate a mediocre ride from a true powerhouse.


Manhart Automotive, recognized for its BMW model enhancements, unveiled the MH2 450, which shares its foundation with the BMW M240i. Contrary to what one might anticipate from the name, the MH2 450 isn’t a modified BMW M2; instead, it is an upgraded variant of the M240i. With further modifications, it can even surpass the performance capabilities of the M2.

MANHART elevates the standard 3.0L B58 twin-turbo inline six-cylinder engine of the M240i, boosting its typical output of 374 hp and 368 lb-ft to a remarkable 440 hp and 442 lb-ft of torque. This improvement is achieved through their in-house MHtronik powerbox, accompanied by an upgraded exhaust system equipped with a GRAIL rear silencer and four 100 mm tailpipes. For those craving even more power, MANHART offers Stage 2 and 3 performance enhancements upon request.

The suspension of the MH2 450 is significantly upgraded as well. You can opt for lowering springs by H&R from MANHART or a Variant 4 coilover system by KW, which improves both the car’s handling and appearance. To add to its striking look, MANHART offers their Concave One rims, painted glossy white and measuring 20 inches in diameter.

In terms of appearance, the MH2 450 showcases carbon fiber elements such as a front lip, side skirts, a rear diffuser, and a rear wing. The customization extends to its interior with an upgraded steering wheel combining leather and Alcantara, black lacquered steering wheel spokes, and carbon shift paddles from MANHART.

Details on pricing and availability are available upon request via MANHART’s official site.
