FactWiesmann planned a run of 55 MF5 roadsters. The company folded after building just 43 — even the limited edition didn't reach its own limit.
The Wiesmann MF5, a more powerful two-seater than the MF30/MF4 it followed, launched as the GT MF5 at the 2008 Geneva Motor Show, joined by a Roadster MF5 at the 2009 Frankfurt IAA (fewer than 200 built in total — the roadster capped at 55 planned, only 43 actually made before the company's 2013-14 insolvency halted production). Its BMW S85 5.0-litre naturally-aspirated V10 (from the E60 M5/E63 M6) made 373 kW (507 PS, 500 hp) at 7,500 rpm and 384 lb-ft at 6,100 rpm; from 2011 a BMW S63-derived 4.4-litre twin-turbo V8 replaced it, making 408 kW (555 PS, 547 hp) at 6,000 rpm and 502 lb-ft. Rear-wheel drive, 6-speed sports automatic with paddle shifters, aluminium monocoque chassis, glass-fibre body; weight 1,405 kg (3,097 lb); length 4.22 m (166 in), width 1.95 m (77 in), height 1.18 m (46 in); top speed 311 km/h (193 mph), 0-100 km/h in 3.9s.

The Celica XX, Japan's name for the A60 Supra, introduced the world's first in-car navigation computer.
The CTR Anniversary looks like a 911 but Ruf built its carbon monocoque from scratch, no Porsche body underneath.
The 228's coupe styling hides a sedan underneath: Maserati stretched it onto the longer four-door Biturbo chassis to make room for its biggest V6, which is literally where the name comes from — 2-door, 2.8 litre.
Switching to fuel injection let this V8 finally shed its trademark bonnet bulge — and only 405 of these flat-hooded Series 5 cars were built before the whole model retired in 1989.
Japanese buyers got a secret weapon in their MX-6 — the JDM-only KL-ZE V6 made about 40 more horsepower than the engine sold in the exact same car in North America.
An American tuner, Callaway Cars, built twin-turbo conversions of the GTV6 that boosted its V6 by fifty percent to 230 hp — turning Alfa's grand tourer into something far quicker than the factory ever intended.
