2009 Wiesmann GT MF5

The latest to emerge from German sports car marque Wiesmann is news on the hand-built GT MF5 sports car.

Loosely based on the previous MF4 coupe, the new MF5 will feature a 500 hp BMW-sourced M5 V10 engine and seven-speed SMG gearbox to offer blistering performance - try 0-100 km/h in 3.9 seconds and a top speed in excess of 300 km/h!


Weighing in at around 1380kg, the car has spent considerable time testing in a wind tunnel to develop a rear diffuser and spoiler to help keep it planted at high speed. Seven double-spoke 19-inch wheels and wide rubber (245f, 275r) provides plenty of grip while any excess power is kept intact by BMW's ABS and dynamic stability control (DSC) systems.

The interior is simple yet beautifully crafted with centrally mounted rev counter and speedometer, custom made seats and plenty of carbon fibre and aluminium inserts.
