The brand new Wiesmann Roadster MF5

Pure energy and dynamism – that's the new Wiesmann GT MF5. This sports car for the purist, with its timeless design and state-of-the-art technology, sets a new all-time high standard for the already impressive performance of Wiesmann sports cars. Equipped with a high-revving BMW V10 delivering 507 hp, it completes the sprint from a standstill to 100 km/h in just 3.9 seconds. With a sensational power-to-weight ratio of 2.7 kg/hp and a top speed of 310 km/h, this Coup?© plays for top honours in the premier league for sports cars. Exclusive driving enjoyment is guaranteed with the Wiesmann GT MF5! The GT MF5 celebrated its series model premiere in March 2008 at the Geneva Motor Show.

The car's powerful exterior styling already hints at the outstanding driving dynamics that await the driver of a Wiesmann GT MF5. An extremely low, crouching body combined with the wide tyres promise power in abundance. In particular, the wing and diffuser guarantee excellent driving stability, even at high speeds. A high-performance suspension system has been developed in a complex process at the manufacturing plant in D?¼lmen, offering exclusive driving enjoyment to the driver of an MF5, but also the necessary degree of safety. Energy-absorbing body zones also contribute to the safety of the Wiesmann GT MF5, along with the rigid aluminium monocoque with integrated side-impact protection, the dual stage driver and passenger airbags plus ABS as standard in conjunction with DSC dynamic stability control. The low overall weight combined with aerodynamic perfection also delivers an extremely low emissions figure in this performance category. A right-hand drive version of the sports car has also been available since the beginning of 2009.

The cockpit is geared in all respects to the functions of a sports car. Everything that is necessary for driving and operating the vehicle is within perfect reach of the driver. The low slung seat, just ahead of the rear axle, ensures that the driver senses and experiences every movement of this driving machine. Optimum contact with the vehicle is guaranteed by the newly developed sports bucket seats with excellent lateral support, which can be adapted to the body contours of driver and passenger as required. One push of the Wiesmann GT MF5's silver starter button, just next to the ignition, and the fun begins!
