AC Schnitzer BMW X5 Falcon 2008

(from AC Schnitzer Press Release) Fighter with Wide Wings: The new X5 Falcon by AC Schnitzer

The falcon has always been a born fighter, the bird of warriors and a status symbol of the mighty and powerful. The peregrine falcon, with a dive speed of more than 200 km/h, is the fastest bird in the world. With its broad "wings", the new Falcon by AC Schnitzer also presents a majestic aura. The new widening kit for the front and rear wings perfectly harmonizes with the existing accessory range from the Aachen-based tuner.

Especially in combination with the front skirt element with its spoiler corners and indicated drive-under protection, at first sight it gives the SUV the supremely confident aura of the fighter. The image of the "bird of prey" has been further emphasised by Designer Michele Viandante by the two triangular metal-rimmed air intakes in the bonnet.

AC Schnitzer BMW ACS6 2008

(from AC Schnitzer Press Release) Crisper Proportions for Even More 6 Appeal

Michele Viandante restyles the ACS6 - now also a powerful diesel

More aggressive, more attractive: With its latest facelift, BMW has made its successful 6-series
coup a little more dynamic. Everyone who thinks this measure does not go far enough will
welcome the newly restyled aerodynamic components from AC Schnitzer. Like its predecessor,
the new front skirt of the ACS6 mirrors the famous kidney design of the grille, but its proportions
have been clearly sharpened by Head Designer Michele Viandante. In conjunction with the newstyle
triangular fog lights from BMW, the car looks considerably more powerful. This impression is
reinforced at the restyled rear, where an AC Schnitzer rear spoiler enhances the new design of
the tailgate with its dynamic "sharp creases and the integral brake light. The Aachen-based
vehicle tuner has made the rear skirt slightly smoother than before, which in conjunction with the
facelift rear lights make the vehicle appear not only more elegant but also more dynamic - an
effect only enhanced by the AC Schnitzer sports rear silencer with chromed tailpipe. Made totally
from stainless steel, this is not only an eyecatcher but also optimises engine response.

AC Schnitzer BMW Z4 M Roadster 2007

(from AC Schnitzer Press Release) Now that the Z4 Roadster has undergone a facelift and at the same time the M-variant, the Z4 M Roadster, was launched, the model range has been completed with a new Z4 Coupé and MCoupé. Not only BMW but also we at AC Schnitzer are thrilled with the range of new Z4 vehicles, and present our interpretations: the AC Schnitzer ACS4 Roadster and the AC Schnitzer ACS4 Coupé.

The product range extends from suspension components and exhaust systems, through a wide range of wheel and tyre combinations, to special aerodynamic conversions and last but not least interior accessories.

The aerodynamic range has been designed so that - with few exceptions - the special accessories for the ACS4 Roadster will also fit the ACS4 Coupé, and similarly the conversions for the ACS4 M Roadster are compatible with the ACS4 M Coupé.

AC Schnitzer GP3.10 2007

(from AC Schnitzer Press Release) Driving pleasure has been written large at AC Schnitzer for 20 years. And happily, nothing will change for the 62nd IAA. But this goal can be reached in a totally alternative way, as the launch of the superb AC Schnitzer GP3.10 GAS POWERED shows. This high-performance coupé has LPG (Liquified Petroleum Gas) drive, where power and efficiency, economy and ecology, meet in an exciting study.

AC Schnitzer BMW ACS1 2005

(from AC Schnitzer Press Release) With the launch of the new 1-series, BMW has entered the strongly contested "compact class" vehicle category for the first time, and presents a vehicle that has jumped to the top of its class even before sales begin.

This posed an even greater challenge to the AC Schnitzer engineers: to develop a special accessories range which takes the "pleasure principle" to an even higher level.
For the 1.8d and the 2.0d versions of the BMW 1-series, AC Schnitzer diesel performance upgrades are already in development, taking the power - depending on engine model - up by around 25 - 30 HP. Despite the stronger power plant, the high running comfort, moderate fuel consumption and excellent stability of course remain unchanged.

With or without the performance upgrade, we recommend our newly developed AC Schnitzer sports rear silencer of V2A special steel with chromed Racing tailpipe trim which ensures improved gas flow.
