At 2000 pounds and 600 horsepower, its Manofied power-to-weight ratio rivals supercars. In this episode, Nicole discovers two distinctive BMW 2002s built by Mano, the man who likely started the trend of hot-rodding the sporty executive coupe in the 1980s. His Agave Green 1974 BMW 2002 powered by a built S52 six-cylinder engine and oil-less turbo is strikingly similar with its widebody and signature yellow stripe, yet precisely different from its wonder twin, a turbo-charged "roundie" 1972 2002 finished in Olive Green, powered by a four-cylinder M44. Nicole takes Mano for a spirited drive up Angeles Crest Highway and determines the unmistakable... that one of these Manofied Cars is her new favorite.
MORE ABOUT MANO:
Of Armenian descent, Mano Agulian now resides in California with his family after immigrating from war-torn Lebanon as a teenager. A full-time pastor, Mano is passionate about sharing his Christian faith and a good meal with friends and family. Manofied Cars, a play on the word "modified", is Mano's vision of the ultimate BMW 2002: an affordable, re-creatable, hot-rodded Turbo-tribute.
