Pundits say that BMW presently doesn’t have a supercar, with the first M1 being the only one in the history of the brand. we tend to trust that statement, however at the same time, once you take a glance at the performance of the BMW M8 Competition, things get a bit murky.
The M8 isn’t a supercar in the true sense of the word, nor it does have an exotic appearance, however performance-wise, it’s up there with the big boys. Naturally, its heft can keep it from matching different supercars on the track, however, that’s a distinct story in a straight line.
Nobody in their right mind will say the stock BMW M8 Competition isn’t quick. With a 0-62 mph sprint of 3.2 seconds, it will blow 99 % of the cars on the road nowadays out of the water. It additionally has lots of power and torque to turn tires into tiny bits of rubber in a moment.
Therefore, once you make this recipe and add even additional spices to it, things tend to get outrageous. The clip beneath showcases a Manhart MH8 in action, with its 800 HP.
This is one of the tuning packages on the market from the German tuner. according to them, it should push the 4.4-liter twin-turbo V8 beneath the hood to around 800 HP.
The video description says this specific car showed 823 PS on a dyno, therefore that’s a quite hefty increase over the standard 625 PS. And just in case you thought this was a bold claim that was far from what the car is truly making, you need to keep watching.
The YouTube clip involves a couple of autobahn sprints and they show the amount of madness the M8 can do. 0-100 km/h takes under 3 seconds whereas the 100 to 200 km/h (62-124 mph) sprint takes just 5.76 seconds.
That’s quicker than most cars do from 0 to 100!
Needless to mention, this thing will go over the 186 mph (300 km/h) mark and it sounds like a platoon of marines firing at will whenever you mash the throttle.
Quite a spectacular overall package from Manhart!
