2008 BMW 135i tuned by Hartge

German tuner Hartge has revealed its engine tuning program for the 2008 BMW 135i hot coupe.

With its new ECU unit installed, the 3.0-liter biturbo engine gets its power increased by 44hp to much more impressive 350hp.

I seriously doubt that an average driver will notice this, but the car’s zero to 100km/h acceleration time has been cut by about half a second and now stays at 4.8 seconds. With the Vmax delimiter removed, the 135i Coupe’s top speed is increased to 280 km/h (174mph).

You can also order the car with Hartge’s aero kit, that was revealed back in July, a set of 20-inch wheels made of polished aluminum, and a custom interior.

All in all, the car will cost you hefty €48,164, VAT not included.
