Mansory Takes on the Maserati GranTurismo Coupe

For the man who has everything except taste, there is Mansory. The Bavarian automobile tuner has now turned their attention to the Maserati GranTurismo coupe and its more powerful 'S' brethren.

The Mansory GT and GTS features a new front spoiler, radiator grille, bonnet, deeper door sills, rear spoiler, exhaust inlay, rear apron and rear diffuser. All of these add-ons are carbon fibre and made in-house by Mansory.

Mansory has also tweaked the engine output by fitting the GT and GTS models with a new ECU, air filter and sports exhaust which increase performance by 30 hp and torque by 40 Nm on each model (435HP / 5000 Nm on the GT and 470HP / 530 Nm on the GTS).

he Italian coupe now rolls on 255/30 R 20 tires at the front and 305/30 R 21 tires at the back. These are painted to match the body color.

The interior is also customized (of course) with new seat fabrics, aluminium pedals and a supposedly sportier-looking steering wheel.

For styling sadomasochists, Mansory also has all sorts of packages for cars built by Mercedes-Benz, Rolls Royce, Bentley, Ford, Bugatti and Aston Martin.

Bling it Again: Mansory Bugatti Veyron LINEA Vincero d'Oro

If there was ever a supercar suitable for the likes of Sacha Baron Cohen's fictional alter-ego, Borat the 'Kazakh', this is it: the Mansory Bugatti Veyron 16.4 LINEA Vincero d'Oro (Italian for "gold"). It's a follow up on last year's LINEA Vincero drenched inside and out in gold and dark-colored carbon fiber.

Exterior modifications over the standard Veyron include a new front fascia with a unique grille in a gold finish and a different apron, a shorter bonnet, LED daytime running lights, side skirts, modified fenders and a new rear diffuser. Mansory also added larger air outlets at the rear and at the sides of the car along with new wheels made from a special gold-colored alloy.

The entire body is decked out in carbon fiber while gold trim is found on the door handles, the rear view mirror caps, the fuel tank cap, the headlight washer nozzle covers, the borders around the daytime running LEDs and the decorative features on the roof...

And if that's not enough, wait until you check out the interior; the tuner 'blinged' out the Veyron's cabin as if it were a float at the Rio Carnival. Along with the gold-colored leather and trim, and gold details in the carbon fiber parts, Mansory also fitted the car with tens - if not hundreds- of LEDs placed in the car's seats, the door trims and the dashboard. Not "very niceee"....

New Mansory Rolls Royce Ghost Skips on the Gold Flakes

Most of you remember the Mansory-prepped Rolls Royce Ghost Gold Edition from this year's Geneva Salon - how can one forget such an eye-blinding proposal... The Swiss tuner is back with a new strictly limited edition version of the "baby" Rolls Royce, named for obvious reasons the Ghost White Edition, of which only three examples will be built.

Even though it features the exact same body kit with restyled bumpers, spoilers, side skirts and additional air vents as well as alloy wheel designs with the Gold Edition, this time Mansory skipped the Fast-&-Furious paint job and gaudy gold trim in favor of a simple white finish and unpainted 22-inch rims. The silly-looking boot lid spoiler is still there, but overall, a huge improvement over the Gold Edition.

The luxury saloon's interior also gets a unique treatment with two-tone leather surfaces all around, custom wood trim on the dashboard, steering wheel, and door panels, aluminum pedals and foot rest, and additional LED lighting. Mansory's upgrades go as far as re-upholstering the car's boot.

The tuner finishes off with a performance package that lifts output from 570HP and 780Nm to 638HP and 860Nm / 634.3 lb-ft of torque. The extra grunt helps the Ghost White Edition complete the 0 to 100km/h (62mph) sprint in 4.5 seconds (0.4 sec faster than the stock model), while thanks to the revoked speed limit, top speed is now 290km/h (180mph).
