Description
30 Years – Manthey – Three Decades, One Legacy, Endless Passion – 1996–2026
For 30 years, Manthey’s heart has beaten for motorsport. What began in 1996 as a vision of Olaf Manthey has evolved into a company that channels its expertise into racing cars, road cars, and driving experiences. Precision, innovative power, and an uncompromising commitment to performance define every facet of the operation.
Manthey has created a legend: the yellow-and-green Porsche—known to fans worldwide simply as "Grello." It is more than just a racing car; it is a symbol of victories, setbacks, unwavering team spirit, and the relentless drive to constantly improve. Few other vehicles embody the successes achieved at the 24-hour races on the Nordschleife quite like this one.
This coffee-table book chronicles three decades lived at the limit—from overall victories in the NLS and triumphs at Le Mans to championship titles in the DTM and the FIA World Endurance Championship. The narrative is further enriched by accounts of record-breaking runs on the road and the global success of Manthey Kits for Porsche GT models.
At the heart of it all, however, are the people behind these successes. In Meuspath, motorsport at the highest level is created day after day—driven by passion, engineering prowess, and a commitment to continuous evolution. It is a legacy. A story that continues to unfold.
The book documents the milestones of Olaf Manthey’s life’s work up to early 2026, including the company’s entry into the IMSA series in the USA. Comprehensive statistics and a complete list of drivers round off this definitive volume.
