- The Supra GR 550 is the most powerful version of the sportscar coming from Manhart.
- The upgraded engine with 542 hp is combined with a sports exhaust and coilover suspension.
- Visual modifications include carbon fiber bits around the bodywork and a large rear wing.
Manhart has presented a modified example of the Toyota GR Supra, featuring performance, handling, and aero upgrades. The Japanese sportscar benefits from Manhart’s expertise on BMW M models, as it shares its underpinnings with the Z4.
The Wuppertal-based company also has some history in tuning the GR Supra, with its first projects dating back to 2020. Its latest build is fitted with the flagship GR 550 tuning kit, taking the turbocharged 3.0-liter six-cylinder engine to 542 hp (405 kW / 550 PS) and 568 lb-ft (770 Nm) of torque.

The healthy power boost is achieved thanks to a new turbocharger, a carbon fiber intake by ARMAspeed, a radiator kit, an MHtronic module, and a stainless steel exhaust system by FI Exhaust with optional downpipes.
The carbon fiber bodykit makes the GR Supra look like the long-rumored GRMN performance flagship might if it gets the green light and Toyota’s designers opt to go for an aggressive styling. The highlight is the “devilish” rear wing, which is joined by a new diffuser, a front splitter, and side skirts with integrated fins. Manhart also offers carbon fiber mirror caps and taillight covers, alongside an optional set of black and red decals.
The pictured GR Supra rides on a new set of 20-inch Concave One alloy wheels, combined with spacers for a wider stance. The sportscar has also been lowered, something that can be achieved by a set of H&R springs or a KW coilover suspension, further improving its handling credentials.
Manhart didn’t change anything on the interior, but will be happy to add personalized features for interested owners.
As for the cost of the conversion, the performance kit alone costs €11,999 ($13,400), unlocking the full potential of the powertrain. Those who want the whole package should pay another €5,050 ($5,639) for the sports exhaust and €2,136 ($2,385) for the downpipes.
The flashy carbon fiber bodykit adds an extra €13,500 ($15,080) to the price, although each part can also be purchased separately from Manhart’s online shop. The alloy wheels can cost up to €3,070 ($3,429) depending on the set, while the most expensive KW Clubsport coilover kit is priced at €3,100 ($3,462).
