Hamann Does the Aston Martin V8 Vantage

The Swabian tuners over at Hamann have developed a new sport package for the Aston Martin V8 Vantage Coupe and Roadster models that includes an aerodynamic kit and various mechanical upgrades. Customers can choose between fiberglass and optionally, matt carbon materials for the body components that comprise a two-piece front spoiler, side skirts, a three-part rear diffuser and a boot lid spoiler. Hamann also offers a functional roof scoop, but unless you’re going for a boy-racer look, we wouldn’t advise it. -Continued

The aero kit is accentuated by a new set of 21-inch three-piece alloy wheels with 245/30ZR21 tires at the front and 295/25ZR21 tires at the back along with a sport suspension that lowers the center of gravity of the V8 Vantage by 30 mm at the front axle and by 20 mm at the rear axle.

For those that would like to match the upgraded looks with more power under the hood, the German tuning firm has retuned the ECU giving the outgoing 2008 Vantage’s 4.3-liter V8 a 23 HP boost to 408 HP and the 2009 model’s 4.7-liter V8 a 30 HP increase to 450 HP. Hamann says that it has also developed new sports exhaust system that adds an extra 20 HP to the overall output of the 2009 model.

Hamann Presents New Sport Package for BMW 6-Series Facelift

Just like rival tuner AC Schnitzer, Hamann Motorsports has also revised its sport package for the facelifted BMW 6-Series. The German tuner offers two aerodynamic kits for the 6-Series, a basic package that includes side skirts and front, rear and roof spoilers, and a more aggressive styling kit called “Edition Race”. The latter adds new front wings, 4-part wing broadenings in the back and larger side skirts for a more “touring car” look. -Continued

For those who wish to combine looks with a bit more oomph, Hamann Motorsports offers a new ECU unit for the 630i, 650i and the diesel 635d that raises output by 21 hp. Moreover, customers can opt for the abolition of the electronic speed limiter which enables the 650i to boost its top speed from 250 to 270 km/h (168 mph).

And if that isn’t enough, you can also add a sport exhaust system, 20 or 21-inch alloys in various designs along with a series of interior accessories that include a 3-spoke sport steering wheel with an air-bag, a black instrumental dial with a scale up to 300 km/h as well as matching pedals, leg rests and hand brake handles made of aluminium.

Hamann Porsche 911 Turbo Stallion with 630Hp & 359km/h Top Speed

The Porsche 911 Turbo Based Stallion is the latest development to come out from the German tuning house Hamann Motorsports. The thoroughbred is equipped with a modified version of the 911 Turbo’s twin turbocharged 3.6-liter boxer engine producing an impressive 630Hp (from 480Hp). The result is a staggering 3.3 seconds for the 0-100km/h (62 mph) sprint which is six tenths of a second faster than its serial counterpart while its top speed is a whopping 359 km/h or 223 MPH.

Of course, Hamann couldn’t resist upgrading the 911 Turbo’s appearance. The Stallion’s most prominent features are of course its gull-wing doors and the chopped roofline that has been lowered by 80mm or 3.4-inches. Moreover, Hamann added an aggressive bodykit combined with 20-inch rims in 245/30ZR20 tires in front and 325/25ZR20 tires at the back. -Continued
