Welcome again to the world of Wiesmann. As part of our day at Wiesmann we shared with you <a href="http://www.gtspirit.com/2011/12/02/road-test-wiesmann-gt-mf5-second-generation/">our road test of the upgraded Wiesmann GT MF5</a>, but there was a second handmade sports car we took for a spin. The Wiesmann GT MF4-S has been around for about two years now and features an excellent combination of vintage appearances with a characteristic sporty gecko styling, available in both roadster and GT body types.

Like any of the models in the German car maker's lineup, the MF4-S fits the keywords; retro and sporty. Wiesmann is a manufacturer of purist sports cars, combining the unique design with technology from many major car brands, for instance BMW. Since its foundation by Martin and Friedhelm Wiesmann in 1988, the Wiesmann name has stood for the manufacturing of individual sports cars whose every detail is crafted by hand. The Coupe MF4-S we had for testing was fitted with winter tires and offered a black-on-black combo inside and out.

The basic setup of the S version brings us first to a short explanation about the ‘normal’ MF4. The S version finds its roots in the normal version, which is currently powered by a 4.4 liter V8 twin-turbo front-mid-positioned engine providing 407hp and 600Nm of maximum torque. The engine is linked to only a six-speed automatic sports gearbox which allows you to reach a top speed of 291km/h and 100km/h in 4.6 seconds.
