Anyone know anything about these cars? Wiesmann Roadsters?
http://www.wiesmann.com/en/models/
Some of these are absolutely cool looking (in their own way) AND most of them are using M power... Much less weight - interiors are at first taken as tacky, then sometimes I think I like them... Basically, just thought I would share this - haven't heard much about these. Anyone ever see one of these outside of US? I think they are only sold over the pond (in reverse - however this saying goes).
Prices?
Cheers.

Wiesmann is registered as a car manufacturer in Germany. Basically everything on these cars can be customized (for example you can chose between over 200 colors of leather for the interior). They only use the best components to build these cars and the powertrain (engine and transmission) is taken from the M Gmbh. For example the MF5 used to come with the V10 from the M5/M6. Since that engine was discontinued by Bmw, Wiesmann now puts the V8 twinturbo from the X6M in.
These cars prove to be very fast, very exclusive and very expensive!

MF3 has a S54 (I didn't know BMW still makes S54).
MF4 has a N63.
MF4-S has a S65.
MF5 has a S63 (used to be S85).
Very sick looking cars. They are the German copy of the British company Morgan which uses BMW engines as well. But Wiesmanns are much cooler than Morgans IMO.
