Normally, we associate German tuner Manhart with the cars of its home country. With 800-hp Mercedes and totally custom BMW M cars, there's no shortage of high-horsepower tuned German machinery from the firm.

This Nissan Patrol, the overseas cousin to the Nissan Armada we get here in the States, is something totally different from Manhart. Still, the same people built this, and the company's M.O. is spread all over the Dubai-only model, from its 650-hp 442 lb-ft motor to Manhart's signature black and gold livery.

Manhart says it decided to focus more on the Middle Eastern market after rebranding Manhart Dubai to Manhart Middle East. And there's no more fitting vehicle to announce that shift with. The Nissan Patrol is an immensely popular vehicle in the UAE and beyond.

The biggest change to this particular Patrol is the addition of a supercharger kit, which is largely responsible for the absolutely massive power figures. The firm says that the front intake design of the kit allows for a shorter and less restrictive intake path, which in turn improves airflow. On top of that, Manhart fits a new exhaust with 200-cell catalytic converters for better flow at the back end.

The new Patrol, which Manhart has dubbed the PT 650 (owing to its power output), also rides on new 24-inch wheels. Whereas most Patrols are intended for daily and off-road use, Manhart swings this one the other way, lowering the SUV for a more aggressive stance.

Finally, Manhart updates the Patrol with a decal set fitting of its brand image. Put another way, anything that isn't already black or gold on a stock Patrol gets tossed in the dumpster behind the shop, never to be seen or used again. That means new "MANHART" banners, gold stripes, and trim accents now find a home on the Patrol.

Inside, Manhart totally reupholsters the cabin. This should come as no shock, given that a Patrol's interior quality isn't exactly befitting of a 650-HP tuned SUV from a brand that spends more time building luxury Autobahn missiles than it does budget performance cars.

Leather and Alcantara covers the cabin, all finished in Manhart's signature black and gold. However, Manhart says you can pick your own accent pieces if you'd like. Pricing hasn't been announced, but given the Patrol's popularity in the Middle East, we expect these will be everywhere in no time.
