Just like death and taxes, people are going to tinker on performance cars. And right on cue for BMW’s new M2, Manhart Performance has gone ballistic on the coupe.

Using its 30th birthday as an excuse, the German-tuner cooked up a new carbon aero package and power upgrade that sees outputs tower over a Ferrari California T’s.

Hold on, that’s 463kW from, wait, two turbochargers? To hit its lofty power goals, Manhart Performance stole the M4’s inline-six and snuck it into the M2’s nose.

But it’s the brakes we’re more concerned for. You’re gonna need good ones to haul up all that stonk. Thankfully, huge carbon jobbies have been stuffed under the 630’s guards, with 380mm/370mm sized discs matching dinner plates for size.

Currently there’s little word on pricing, or availability. But we’ve dropped them an email for details. Stay tuned.
