Mat and the team have flown over to Germany to get their hands on some very special Manhart-tuned BMWs!
We’ve got Mat in the BMW XM Label Red, and Racing Driver Sam’s lining up in the BMW M4 CSL! So let’s see how the two compare.
Starting with the XM, this Label Red edition is powered by a 4.4-litre twin-turbo V8 and an electric motor. Combined they usually produce 748hp and 1,000Nm of torque. However, after Manhart added several upgrades, it can now put down 800hp and 1,100Nm! This power is sent to all four wheels via an 8-speed automatic gearbox, and the car weighs in at a colossal 2,720kg! If you want to pick up this very car, it’ll set you back around £210,000.
Then we come to the M4 CSL. It’s powered by a 3-litre twin-turbo inline 6 which usually puts down 550hp and 650Nm. However, following the Manhart upgrades, it now puts down 702hp and 880Nm! As with the normal car, this power is sent to the rear wheels via an 8-speed auto gearbox, and the car is over a tonne lighter than the XM, coming in at 1,625kg. If you want to buy one, this Manhart edition will cost at least £227,000!
So the XM may have more power, but will the huge weight difference drag it down? There’s only one way to find out for sure… LET’S RACE!
