You might not have heard of the tuning firm on our headline but we also forgive you if you cannot pronounce it, but if you are a Wiesmann fan you have all the reason to love their Wiesmann Roadsster MF5 Black Bat Edition.

The Scwabenfolia is actually a car wrapping firm headquartered in Germany specifically in Korntal-Munchingen. The company is responsible for the dark looks of the Roadster MF5.

Matte black ruled this Wiesmann as its body panels, door sills, engine room, and trunk are hugged by the dark skin. Schabenfolia further showcases their mastery of the wrapping material by doing the BBS 20-inch alloy rims using the shame shade as the body.

They also foiled the northern loop of the Nurburgring on the side of the driver and emblems finished in chrome completes the makeover.

Scwabenfolia partnered with Dahler, a Swiss company, to do all the tweaks on the powerplant. The stock edition of the MF5 Roadster has a 5.0L BMW M5 engine which already gives out a monstrous 507 horsepower. Dahler though managed to up the output to 600 horses by giving the Wiesmann roadster with a new exhaust system and improving some of its electronics.

The tuning firm claims that the Wiesmann MF5 Roadster Black Bat can go from 0 to 100 kph in a blink of 3.5 seconds and speed up to 200 kph below 10 seconds. Its top speed is said to be at 321 kilometers an hour.

With all the power, Dahler wanted to make sure the powerful ride can stop by fixing some Brembo fixed calipers with six pistons in front and fixed calipers with 4 pistons on the back with 308 mm x32 mm discs and 380 mm x 28 mm discs for the front and back, respectively.

We still have not heard of the tag price for the Black Bat.
