BMW tuner HAMANN of Laupheim took an adventurous look at the
modification of the most potent Bavarian luxury coupé and turned the
beautiful vehicle into an uncompromising sports car. The crowning
for the M6 is the new HAMANN wide body-kit „EDITION RACE“, which
ensures that nobody will cast doubts on the power of this
splendorous high-performance automobile.
HAMANN offers its clients three different engine tuning options. The
high revving 5-litre V10 with 507 bhp and 520 Nm is limited to
250km/h as standard. By removing the engine limiter, the racy
Bavarian can reach a top speed of 300km/h, depending on the wheel
and tyre combination. The second option is made up of a combination
of removing the engine limiter and optimising the engine
characteristics by reprogramming the standard engine computer.
HAMANN manages to tease an additional 30bhp/26kW and 15 Nm out of
the V10 engine. The “HM/M +60" sport kit provides even better
performance. The kit is made up of high-performance headers,
metallic sports catalytic converters, a sports rear silencer, a
sports air filter, an engine map optimisation and the removal of
engine restrictions. As the name of the sports kit already suggests,
the engine then provides around an additional 60bhp/44kW and can
provide an extra 54 Nm of torque, meaning that a notably faster top
speed of up to 320km/h can be reached.
Wide body kit “EDITION RACE”
Besides the „normal“ but nevertheless impressive fibreglass body-kit, which covers all sides including front, back, flanks as well as roof and trunk lid (the spoilers for last two mentioned are also available from carbon kevlar) HAMANN offers something even more spectacular.
Who thinks, a stronger
car should leave a stronger mark in the rear mirrors of other road
users, can ask HAMANN for the wide body-modification „EDITION RACE“,
which extends the vehicle’s body. The kit consists of an EDITION
RACE front spoiler (including upper beam headlights), ER side sills
as well as ER front fenders and ER fender extensions to be mounted
at the rear. Thanks to this body-kit, the M6 comes close to the DTM
race car-looks and lets the vehicle appear more muscular. For fans
of motorsports the EDITION RACE-kit is definitely the first choice.
Four stainless steel exhausts, each with a diameter of 90mm are part
of the HAMANN 4-pipe sports silencer. With a tone that gives you
goose bumps, it tells you all about the potency of this coupé.
Simply a must have!
A lowering kit with progressive chassis springs takes care of the lowering of the chassis. The HAMANN M6 then sits 30mm nearer to the tarmac at the front and 25mm at the back. Of course, you want to be able to brake effectively at 320km/h too. HAMANN equips the M6 with racing brakes on the front axle. It is made up of 2 slitted and ventilated brake discs, 380mm in diameter and 34mm thick, 2 HAMANN brake piston housings in red – other colours are of course available, special brake pads, HAMANN steel flex brake lines and adapter, in other words the complete braking hardware set. The race track calls!
Crowning of the HAMANN wheel range: design „EDITION RACE“
HAMANN offers several
metal alloy wheels for the M6. Besides the designs „Anniversary I“
(19 and 20”), „PG3“ (19 and 20”) and „Anniversary II“ (20”), HAMANN
also offers the wheel „Edition Race“ in 20” and 21”. HAMANN offers
this three-piece, super-light forged wheel with an attractive
crossed-spoke design, titanium screw fittings and highly-polished
rim flange with a black wheel hub.
Of course HAMANN also offers shim sets as well as lockable wheel
nuts, thus providing additional security for the wheels.
Possible wheel-tyre-combinations:
- front 9,0 J x 20 / rear 10,5 J x 20 with 255/35 ZR 20 / 285/30 ZR
20
- front 9,0 J x 20 / rear 11,5 J x 20 with 255/30 ZR 20 / 325/25 ZR

- front 9,0 J x 21 / rear 10,5 J x 21 with 255/30 ZR 21 / 295/25 ZR

Various HAMANN accessories and fitment details enhance the coupé's
interior significantly. There are exclusive HAMANN floor mats
complete with company logo, a noble aluminium hand brake, sporty
aluminium pedals and an eight-piece interior set made of carbon
(available in every colour), which serve to underline the sporty
appearance. As an alternative to the standard steering wheel, HAMANN
offers two versions of an anti-slip, three-spoke leather sports
steering wheel complete with airbag. The second version has, like
the first, a black leather covering, but with additional
applications of carbon kevlar. Naturally, HAMANN can also modify
every M6 according to the individual requirements of the client.
This means, for example, that intricate leather fittings are
available in different colours. Or perhaps even an extensive
multimedia setup with DVD, TV or Playstation.
