Hamann Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder 2006


Auto Car | Hamann Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder 2006 | From a visual aspect, the German tuner Hamann lends the masculine, angular contours of the Gallardo Spyder an additional shot of testosterone. The extensive aerodynamics suite, which has been perfectly matched to the body of the "compact" Lamborghini, includes a downforce-generating front spoiler, which is additionally equipped with an adjustable cup front spoiler lip borrowed from the racing scene. The muscular appearance of the Gallardo Spyder is enhanced by the Hamann side sills - which also make the car look lower on the road, besides lending it a "fuller" appearance.



Further features Hamann borrows from the racing scene are incorporated into the rear end of the Gallardo. In addition to a three-piece rear spoiler, as an alternative, the Laupheim tuning specialist also offers a racing car-like rear wing, which helps to generate greatly enhanced downforce. The latter is given yet a further boost by being fitted with the Hamann diffuser. All the components are available both in fiberglass and Carbon-Kevlar. The aerodynamics body-styling kit is rounded off by fiberglass covers, designed as a trim for the Hamann 4-tailpipe rear muffler.



Wing Doors
An even more profound modification to the body involves the fitting of the Hamann in-house developed wing doors. The objective was to design a stable, but relatively inconspicuous system. The hinges of the Hamann wing door conversion are only just about visible, without giving the impression of having been retrofitted. This ensures that the Gallardo still cuts a fine figure when the entrance area is inspected. The conversion is performed at Hamann and takes about a week. The Hamann wing doors are characterized by the fact that they open upwards at an angle - as already seen in the models Countach, Diablo and Murcielago on which they are based.



More Power
Needless to say, Hamann also lends the Lamborghini Gallardo more power and performance. The German tuner has obtained this by fitting two types of sports rear mufflers - one version can be used in conjunction with the original tailpipes, thanks to the supplied adaptors, while the other version has four tailpipes each with a 76 mm diameter - from V2A stainless steel. When fitted in conjunction with Hamann sports metal catalysts, they increase both the bhp values and the torque. For the Lamborghini Gallardo, Hamann is also offering the option of recalibrating the standard ECU coupled with optimized mapping. This leads to an increase in power of 30 bhp (series 520 bhp) and a 30 lb-ft increase in torque for this Italian powerhouse. The top speed increases to 198 mph.
Improved Braking System
Drivers of fast cars are often underestimated by other road users. Precarious situations can often be defused safely by fitting better brakes. Accordingly, for the Gallardo Spyder and its hard-top variant, Hamann offers sports braking systems both for the front and back. The braking system for the front consists of two slotted and inside-vented Hamann brake discs in the dimensions 380 x 34 mm and two Hamann eight-piston fixed caliper brakes in red (other colors optionally available). Hamann equips the braking system for the rear with two slotted and inside-vented brake discs in the dimension 360 x 32 mm, two six-piston fixed caliper brakes in red and special handbrake linings.
Both sports braking systems are supplied complete with Hamann special brake pads and Hamann adapters along with all the fastenings.



Wheels Available in 19' and 20'
The stylishly, sporty concept of the Hamann Lamborghini Gallardo is rounded off by the composite, forged Anniversary II light alloy wheel. This exclusive wheel in its multi-spoke design conveys a sense of pure, unadulterated motor racing. The silver rim with its mirror-finished rim flange looks both stylish and luxurious. The front axle is fitted with wheels in the dimensions 9 x 19 inches, with size 235/35 ZR19 tires. The rear axle is fitted with the Anniversary II wheel rims in the dimensions 12 x 19 inches and tires in the size 295/30 ZR19. With this solution, Hamann enables its customers to continue using the series tires of the original wheel on a new rim.



Hamann also offers the Anniversary II as a 20-inch version, namely at the front, in 8.5 x 20 dimensions with tire size 235/30 ZR20, and at the rear in 11.5 x 20 dimensions with tire size 325/25 ZR20. A new addition to the range is the Hamann 20 inch light alloy wheel "Edition Race". This wheel is fitted on the front axle in an 8.5 x 20 dimension with size 235/30 ZR20 tires and on the rear axle in an 11.25 x 20 dimension with size 325/25 ZR20 tires.

Hamann Mini Cooper S 2006


Auto Car | Hamann Mini Cooper S 2006 | The MINI is a genuine city sprinter that offers you lifestyle at its purest. HAMANN MOTORSPORT, from Laupheim, Germany, has a comprehensive tuning and accessories program for all MINI models, developed by One D, One, Cooper or Cooper S, all in accordance with the motto, “Small, but uh-oh…!.
More performance means more driving pleasure, without question. So the HAMANN engineers developed a balanced performance boost for each MINI model. The result for the 1.4 liter four-cylinder turbo diesel engine of the MINI One is an impressive 90 hp and 216 Nm maximum torque.



This boost of around 25 hp more than the showroom model allow the HAMANN-Mini to sprint from 0 to over 60 mph (around 100 km/h) in only 13 seconds, and top speed is bumped up to an impressive pace of over 105 mph (170 km/h). For the 1.6 liter four-cylinder gasoline engine, HAMANN has an even more effective performance boost to offer. Comprehensive modifications provide 120 horsepower, instead of the stock 90 hp under the hood.
MINI Cooper owners can also look forward to a HAMANN motor kit that boosts performance a full 128 hp compared to the 115 hp standard equipment.



And HAMANN’s engineers have gone and developed two motor kits for the MINI Cooper S. This includes the so-called CS1 performance increase, boosting performance from 32 hp to 195 hp at 6,100 RPMs. The top-of-the-line HAMANN CS4 SPORTKIT comprises a sport air filter, an altered conversion for the mechanical compressor and a complete high-performance exhaust system with header system, metal catalytic converter and front and rear silencers. All components are precisely calibrated with one another using modified motor electronics. All of this together ensures the corresponding ‘Uh-oh!’ effect. The HAMANN modified 1.6 liter four-cylinder compressor motor provides an impressive 211 hp and maximum torque of 255 Nm. Of course, this also has a positive effect on the driving performance. The HAMANN MINI Cooper S only needs 6.6 seconds to sprint from 0 to over 60 mph (100 km/h), and top speed is boosted up to over 142 mph (229 km/h).



The increased performance is created by, among other things, the HAMANN sport rear silencers, which are available in different versions with two or four tailpipes depending upon the motor. And the prime beneficiary of the sport rear silencers is the sound, which thanks to the HAMANN technology, gives the MINIs a fat, sonorous voice.
In order to also transfer the performance at its best to the street, a height-adjustable coilover suspension was built for all current MINI models. This sporty, calibrated suspension with its special alignment of the progressive springs to the shocks allows pure driving pleasure. The MINI reacts with noticeably more precise steering, and sits on the asphalt like it’s on rails.



Additionally, the HAMANN coilover suspension lowers the front axle by up to 50 millimeters and the rear axle by 30 millimeters.
Corresponding with the motor modifications, the HAMANN designers have also created comprehensive aerodynamic components for all MINI models, such as a broad front apron which completely replaces the stock bumper and gives this small Brit a powerful appearance, particularly in combination with the sporty-looking radiator grill featuring two large intakes. And the HAMANN rear spoiler guarantees sporty optics.

HAMANN has created a front spoiler lip for easy mounting onto the showroom front for the MINI One and the Cooper.
For the MINI Cooper S, the HAMANN front spoiler was conceived so that it can easily be attached under the stock bumper. It reduces the lift on the front axle at higher speeds. At the rear of the Cooper S, the HAMANN diffuser assures a powerful, sporty rear view.
Premium light metal rims in a dynamic design are a matter of honor, and they are equally included in the extensive HAMANN range for the MINI; for instance, the multi-part HAMANN PG4 five spoke wheels with a polished external base in 8x18” with 225/35 ZR 18 tires. Or the one-piece HAMANN ANNIVERSARY I light metal rims in a multi-spoke design. This rim, with polished stainless steel impact protection, which can be replaced in the event of curb contact, is available in 8x18” from HAMANN. One size smaller but at least as attractive is the HAMANN HM4 in 8x17”, with its multi-piece look.



And in the interior, the MINI makes a big impression with the HAMANN accessories. Ergonomically-shaped sport airbag steering wheel, carbon applications for the dashboard and door interiors, as well as sporty aluminum parts like the pedals, foot supports and gear shift guarantee an exclusive motor sport feeling. As a special highlight, HAMANN offers a luxurious complete leather interior in every color desired. This applies in particular for the sport seats, which are also available without the fine leather covering. The final touch is in the form of the foot mats featuring the HAMANN logo, illuminated upon request.

Hamann Porsche 997 2006


Auto Car | Hamann Porsche 997 2006 | HAMANN Accessories for the new Porsche 911 Carrera and Carrera S  The new Porsche 911 Carrera (997) is a real sports car, that creates enthusiasm with the old virtues of performance and design, reminding us of the 993. HAMANN MOTORSPORT has developed a comprehensive accessories´ program for the 911 Carrera and Carrera S which guarantees pure motorsports feeling.
The HAMANN-designers developed aerodynamics components imparting an extremely sporty and, nevertheless, luxurious look to the Carrera.



Included are a dynamically styled front spoiler, wide side sills and a mighty rear spoiler, which produces a higher downforce at the rear axle.
Sports springs lower the sports car by 25 millimeters and make it appear even more aggressive and sportier. Thus the muscular and dynamic design of the standard model is emphasized especially in combination with the aerodynamics components. The appearance becomes more eyecatching, but additionally driving dynamics are improved.



Progressive spring characteristics, i.e. an increased spring compression, make the driver wish for more corners and fast direction changes. The Carrera 911, sporty anyway, sticks to the tarmac and thus guarantees pure motorsports feeling. The suspension cross-brace, developed by HAMANN, improves torsional rigidity and makes the Carrera sprint considerably more agile on the tarmac.
HAMANN also offers sporty-elegant light-alloy rims for the new 997. The product range comprises the multi-piece PG3 in classical five-spokes design, giving a powerful impression, and the ANNIVERSARY II. The multi-piece forged wheel with its fine spokes allows a deep look at the brake system and suits the extremely sporty appearance of the HAMANN 997.



The Laupheim experts create motorsports feeling in the interior as well: aluminum pedals including footrest allow pure motorsports flair. But that´s not all. At the moment there are further products being developed. Shortly there will be a complete exhaust system, rear muffler, sports steel catalyst, high-performance collector, rear diffusor, top spoiler and many other things for the Porsche 911 Carrera and Carrera S available at HAMANN MOTORSPORT.

Hamann Range Rover Sport 2006


Auto Car | Hamann Range Rover Sport 2006 | HAMANN has no taboos. Anyone who thinks that an off-road car is not suitable for cruising around in and should always remain untouched for off-road driving, should stop reading here. Fortunately, however, HAMANN and most drivers of a Range Rover Sport see things differently. After all, they do tend to drive mostly on tarmac rather than through forests and across open countryside.
To ensure that the performance on tarmac with such a heavy vehicle as the Range Rover doesn’t disappoint, HAMANN starts out by tuning the engine. Both with the 2.7 liter V6 Diesel and the 4.4 liter V8, the Laupheim-based tuning specialist optimizes the characteristic maps. By recalibrating the series ECU, the Diesel generates 165 kW/225 bhp at 4000 rpm, the torque being a solid 510 Nm even at 1900 rpm.



Following the modification, the 4.4 liter naturally aspirated engine generates an impressive 238 kW/323 bhp at 5500 rpm and 450 Nm at 4000 rpm. Look out export customers – the HAMANN SPORTKIT for the series V8 supercharged engine turns the Range Rover Sport into a real racer! To achieve the power boost to 349 kW/475 bhp at 5740 rpm and the maximum torque of 610 Nm at 3500 rpm, a number of tuning measures are required. In addition to optimized characteristic maps, HAMANN modifies the supercharger ratio and installs a sports high-performance header, sports metal catalytic converters and a sports rear muffler.



The latter emphasizes the sound of the newly acquired power. HAMANN offers the 4-pipe sports rear muffler with round stainless steel tailpipes (diameter 90 mm each) also independently of the power boost for all V8 engine configurations. For the 4.4i V8, a sports high-performance header and sports metal catalytic converters are also available (both exclusively for export).
Otherwise committed to the British sense of understatement, when equipped with its new aerodynamic body kit, the HAMANN Range Rover Sport speaks a different language. For instance, HAMANN fits a far sportier front apron with two integrated high beams and a pair of fog lights. HAMANN adorns the sides with side sills, whilst at the rear end, a rear apron provides the counter pole to the front spoiler. A roof spoiler allows the Range Rover Sport to run more smoothly at higher speeds. To complete the picture, HAMANN fits air inlet trims from carbon fiber.



To ensure that this juggernaut also stops quicker, HAMANN equips a sports braking system on the front axle, thus making a significant contribution to the safety. The system itself consists of two slotted and inside-vented brake discs in the dimension 380x34mm, two HAMANN eight-piston fixed caliper brakes in red (other colors available subject to an extra charge) plus special brake pads and Stahlflex brake pipes.
Rims in 20 to 23 inch models
As usual, HAMANN customers are spoilt for choice when it comes to wheel rims. The Laupheim specialists are offering no fewer than four designs.
Since large cars only look good with large wheels, HAMANN offers both designs PG3 and ANNIVERSARY I in 22 inch versions. The Laupheim car customizer fits the PG3 wheel, a composite rim, in the ‘Silver’ edition with a high-gloss varnished rim flange. The large 10.5x22 rim with a sporty five-spoke design is available from HAMANN also as a complete set of wheels fitted with tires in the dimension 295/30 ZR22 or 315/30 ZR22. The ANNIVERSARY I is a single-piece rim with a multi-spoke design which conveys a sense of lightness of foot. HAMANN supplies them in the ‘Silver’ edition with an INOX stainless steel lip adorning the flange. It is possible to fit this rim with the same tire sizes as the PG3.



For export, HAMANN also offers the ANNIVERSARY I rim as a 20 inch version, the ANNIVERSARY II as a 22 inch version and, as the highlight of the rim range for the Range Rover Sport, the ANNIVERSARY RACE rim in a chunky 23 inch design (10.5x23).
The stylish HAMANN rims harmonize beautifully with the electronically lowered suspension, which lowers the body of the Range Rover Sport by 40 mm at the front and by 30 mm at the rear, thus bringing the car closer to the road.

Anyone who knows HAMANN will also know that they don’t stop at the exterior. Accordingly, these tuning specialists from Southern Germany are also experts in tuning the interiors of cars. For instance, a car is given a motor racing touch by fitting an 8-piece carbon fiber interior set, which includes a decorative trim (4 piece) for the center console and door surrounds for the front and rear.



The pedals are also adapted in keeping with the sporty look, with these being replaced by aluminum counterparts. A driver’s footrest is also available in aluminum. And the exclusive set of HAMANN foot mats by no means marks the end of the interior tuning. Since, needless to say, HAMANN will customize any Range Rover Sport to suit each customer’s individual requests. By way of example, lavish leather upholsteries in various colors are possible, as are extensive multimedia conversions featuring a DVD, TV or Playstation.

Hamann BMW 3 Series Convertible 2007


Auto Car | Hamann BMW 3 Series Convertible 2007 | This elegantly proportioned model lends itself perfectly to accentuating its sporty appeal by adding new details. HAMANN from Laupheim also shares this opinion and adorns the 3 Series convertible an aerodynamics kit, power boosts, new wheel rims and a stylish interior.
Power boosts for petrol engines and diesels
HAMANN boosts the power in this convertible by means of optimized curve maps. In other words, the electronic power boost is achieved by
recalibrating the standard ECU. The six-cylinder petrol engines 325i and 330i receive a boost of 13 bhp / 10 kW and 17 bhp / 12 kW and in both cases around 25 Nm torque. The top speed goes up to 250 and 265 km/h respectively (standard: 325i 245 km/h, 330i 250 km/h). In the 330i, the price includes the deactivation of the 250 km/h speed restriction.



Also when it comes to the diesel models, customers can expect a substantial power boost.
In the 330d, 272 bhp / 200 kW, 259 km/h top speed (standard: 248) and 600 Nm at 2000 rpm are quite possible. In the top diesel model 335d 313 bhp/230 kW, 272 km/h and a more than generous 630 Nm at 2000 rpm.
A power boost to around 380 bhp for the 335i is currently in preparation.
By fitting a HAMANN 4-pipe sports rear muffler with four round tailpipes, the 335i and 335d can make their power public. The 4 stainless steel tailpipes, each 76 mm in diameter, make the rear end of this convertible look even more attractive.
Various power boosts



Still so young, and already its first facelift... HAMANN does not do things by half and sets to work on the face. The new, sportier-looking HAMANN front spoiler is designed to be fitted onto the standard bumper. The visual lowering effect is created by the new side sills, which lend the side view more character. The vehicle's back can either be customized with a HAMANN rear spoiler or a spoiler lip. A truly effective means of reducing the lift. The same effect is produced by the
    HAMANN roof spoiler, which sits on top of the vehicle. The rear center molding, which incorporates matching cutouts for the tailpipes, is designed to be used in conjunction with the HAMANN 4-pipe sports rear muffler. Fitting Carbon-Kevlar mirror caps lends the HAMANN 3 Series convertible a further eye-catching touch.



Wheels from 18 to 20 inch
HAMANN really goes to town when it comes to the wheels. No fewer than four different designs and three sizes from 18 to 20 inch make choosing difficult. The HM2 design, available in an 18 inch version, is a single-piece light alloy wheel with five spokes in the ‘Silver' finish and features an outer rim with an INOX steel lip.
The single-piece rim Anniversary I has a multi-spoke design and is also available in the ‘Silver' finish and features an outer rim with an INOX steel lip. HAMANN offers it as an 18, 19 and 20 inch version. The PG3 wheel is a composite five-spoke wheel in silver with a high-gloss polished rim flange. Here, customers can choose between the sizes 19 and 20 inch.
Needless to say, 20 inch wheels suit the customized 3 Series convertible best. In this size, HAMANN offers its "Edition Race" design as its top model. The appearance of this three-piece, ultra-lightweight, forged rim in a cross-spoke design and with a black spider is characterized by the 9 main spokes, each of which branches outwards into 2 further spokes. In addition to the exciting design, the titanium bolts are a particularly eye-catching detail. The high-gloss rim flange adds the finishing touch to the stylish looks.



Typical wheel/tire combinations in 20 inch:
Edition Race: front 8.5 J x 20 / rear 10.0 J x 20 - 235/30 ZR 20 / 285/25 ZR 20
PG3: front and rear 8.5 J x 20 - 235/30 ZR 20
Anniversary I: front and rear 9.0 J x 20 235/30 ZR 20
By fitting a suspension lowering kit, comprising four progressive suspension struts, HAMANN succeeds in lowering the vehicle's center of gravity by 35 mm at the front and by 20 mm at the rear. Even in vehicles that come with sporty suspension tuning, that's still around 15mm.
Numerous accessories combine to make sitting inside the HAMANN 3 Series convertible all the more pleasurable. Thanks to the three-spoke HAMANN airbag sports steering wheel, the driver always has the reins securely in his hands. A sporty flair is added by the decorative carbon-fiber components, which HAMANN fits on the dashboard, center console, ashtray trim, doors, steering wheel, gearshift knob, handbrake lever and the I-Drive-Controller. HAMANN adds further sporty nuances in the form of sport gearshift knobs (in aluminum or leather/aluminum), aluminum pedals, an aluminum handbrake lever and an aluminum footrest. An exclusive set of floor mats sporting the HAMANN logo in silver rounds off the interior offering.
Needless to say, HAMANN will customize every 3 Series to a customer's own specific requirements. By way of illustration, luxurious leather upholsteries in various colors are possible, as are extensive multimedia conversions featuring a DVD player, TV reception and a PlayStation.

Hamann BMW 5-Series 2007


Auto Car | Hamann BMW 5-Series 2007 | HAMANN, the car refiner from Laupheim, is now expanding its product range for the BMW 5-Series E60/61 with attachments for vehicles with the M aerodynamics package. Besides the aerodynamics components, HAMANN also offers other conversion measures. Diesel drivers can expect major performance increases. Up to 350 HP is possible!



Up to 276 km/h - in a diesel!
BMW's range of engines leaves no wishes unfulfilled. Or do they? In any case, customers can choose from four different types of engines. Whether it is the 520d, 525d, 530d, or 535d - the Bavarian manufacturer offers the right unit to meet the needs. However, needs can grow! So a visit to HAMANN is recommended to anyone wanting more performance. The company from Laupheim can help put an edge to all versions by reprogramming the series engine management. HAMANN extracts performance values from the top diesel model, the 535d, which were considered impossible until now. In the first phase, the tuner increases power to 319 HP/235 kW.



The maximum torque of 630 Nm makes it possible to get impressive in-gear performance figures. The limousine can make the sprint from 0-100 km/h in 5.9 seconds instead of the standard 6.5 seconds (add 0.1 s for the estate model). The top speed - HAMANN removes the Vmax governor - increases to 267 km/h. In a second phase (sports version), the 3-litre straight-six engine with a register turbocharger achieves an unbelievable 350 HP/257 kW and applies a titanic 660 Nm to the crankshaft. The acceleration values then improve once again by one-tenth of a second. The resulting 276 km/h is enough to drive one or two sports car drivers to despair. Don't forget, we're talking about a diesel!



Besides diesel tuning, HAMANN of course also offers tuning for gas engines.
Anyone who orders an E60/E61 with the M aerodynamics package (part of the M sports package from the BMW range of products) will find the matching additional aerodynamics components at HAMANN. The front is given especially impressive lines through the competition front spoiler, which reduces the lift. It fits into the M lines perfectly. The classical BMW markings, the double-kidneys, can be masked with a HAMANN kidney cover, which discretely highlights the sportier look.



A pair of HAMANN side skirts provides optical lowering on one hand, and furthermore, they ensure a more impressive side view that what is provided by the smooth side profile. As an optical counterweight to the front spoiler, there is a HAMANN spoiler for the rear (not for the estate) where it is responsible for reducing lift. If you order a HAMANN 4-pipe, muffler rear section, you should also order a rear styling conversion kit with an integrated diffuser at the same time to have the right look. The 5 series is given the final touch by the HAMANN sports mirror (for left-hand-drive up to year of construction 08/2005), which is electrically controlled and heated, or also hinged as an option.

Hamann BMW M6 Widebody 2007


Auto Car | Hamann BMW M6 Widebody 2007 | BMW tuner HAMANN of Laupheim took an adventurous look at the modification of the most potent Bavarian luxury coupe 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 vehicles 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 coupe. 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 20
- front 9,0 J x 21 / rear 10,5 J x 21 with 255/30 ZR 21 / 295/25 ZR 21



Various HAMANN accessories and fitment details enhance the coupe’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.

Hamann BMW Z4 M Roadster 2007


Auto Car | Hamann BMW Z4 M Roadster 2007 | Anyone who considers the (limited) max. speed of 250 km/h to be insufficient can ask HAMANN to derestrict the engine, which results in a top speed of 273 km/h with the standard engine. Blessed with 343 bhp ex-works, HAMANN tickles a little bit more out of the high-revving engine. Reprogramming the standard engine management system produces an extra 15 bhp (11 kW). Torque rises by 20 Nm. Reprogramming also includes circumvention of the Vmax limit and, after being thus tweaked, the HAMANN Z4 M Coupe reaches 275 km/h.



A great engine needs a great sound. Accordingly, HAMANN offers a 4-tailpipe rear silencer with stainless-steel tailpipes (4 x 76 mm diameter) for the Z4 M Coupe. Even better sound and a more immediate reaction to throttle changes can be achieved by installing a high-performance exhaust manifold and metal sports catalytic converters.



HAMANN provides for even greater agility by fitting progressive suspension springs that lower the ride height by 25 mm. To make the body even stiffer, HAMANN also offers a two-part strut-tower breach (with HAMANN logo), which is fitted at the front.
Two wheel designs in 19 and 20 inches
When it comes to wheels, the HAMANN range has few challengers. In other words, customers have a tempting choice of two aluminium designs and different dimensions for the Z4 M Coupe. HAMANN wheels can also be ordered as complete sets of wheels with tyres.



In the first place, there is the PG3 design. This attractive, multi-part, five-spoke wheel with a silver finish and polished outboard rim flange is available in the dimensions 19 and 20 inches. The wheel / tyre combinations offered:
- 8.5 J x 19 (front), 10 J x 19 (rear) / 235/35 ZR 19, 265/30 ZR 19
- 8.5 J x 20 (front), 10.5 J x 20 (rear) / 235/30ZR 20, 285/25 ZR 20
The single-piece Anniversary I wheel design with a multi-piece look is also available in the dimensions 19 and 20 inches. With its silver finish and highly polished INOX stainless-steel lips, the Anniversary I is also an eye catcher and available in the following combinations:
- 8.5 J x 19 (front), 10 J x 19 (rear) / 235/35 ZR 19, 265/30 ZR 19
- 9 J x 20 (front), 10.5 J x 20 (rear) / 235/30ZR 20, 285/25 ZR 20
A variety of HAMANN accessories and appointments make the interior of the Z4 M Coupe significantly more sporting, e.g., the exclusive HAMANN floor mats with HAMANN logo, a finely wrought aluminium hand-brake grip, competition aluminium pedals, a sports gear-lever knob (two versions: aluminium / leather or ‘Racing’ aluminium) and a carbon interior set in every conceivable colour, consisting of dashboard mouldings, door-grip mouldings, gear-lever knob and centre consol. The result: a breath of racing air inside the Z4! Naturally, HAMANN can also modify every Z4 M Coupe in accordance with individual customer requirements, e.g., with luxurious leather appointments in a variety of colours or multi-media conversions.
