Meyers Manx has always been about fun in the sand, but now they’ve teamed up with UK Porsche wizards Tuthill to take things to a whole new level. The result is the Meyers Manx LFG, a wild carbon-bodied buggy that crashed the party at The Quail and instantly stole attention.

On the outside, it still has that classic Manx tub shape, but everything else has gone hardcore. Think fat rally-style wheels on chunky all-terrain rubber, big flared fenders leaving half the tire exposed, and gullwing-style doors you can pop off when you want the wind in your face. Add in LED lights, a built-in bull bar, side steps, and a roll-over hoop, and suddenly the cute little dune buggy has grown into a full-blown off-road beast.

Inside, it’s a mix of retro and race car. Screens cover the dash, but you still get proper buttons and switches, plus a tall shifter and even a hydraulic handbrake that screams rally stage. It’s strictly a two-seater.

Speaking of engines, forget batteries this time. Tuthill dropped in a screaming 4.0-liter flat-six, an evolution of the 11,000-rpm motor from their bonkers 911K restomod. They haven’t spilled all the numbers yet, but expect north of 400 hp. It runs through a six-speed sequential and a full-time 4WD setup with limited-slip diffs, backed by serious suspension and an Inconel exhaust that’ll make sure everyone hears you coming.

Production is limited to only 100 units starting in 2026. The first 20 buyers will be treated to the Baja Tour in 2027, while future owners can look forward to equally exclusive driving adventures around the globe. These events are designed to make sure the Meyers Manx LFG lives up to its wild character rather than sitting forgotten in a collection. Pricing is still under wraps.
