(from AC Schnitzer
Press Release) Even more individual driving pleasure
Unique and unmistakeable: The BMW
X3 by AC Schnitzer
The new BMW X3, which
has been available from dealers since autumn 2010, is uniquely
versatile. Now BMW tuning specialist AC Schnitzer has developed an
extensive range of accessories to make the second generation SUV
stand out even more.
Just the AC Schnitzer
performance upgrade from 184 to 218 HP in the X3 xDrive20d ensures
that the vehicle stands out from the crowd. And in the near future,
the Aachen-based specialist will be offering a performance upgrade
for the X3 xDrive30d too.
With or without power
upgrade, the engine bay styling with AC Schnitzer logo is available
for all models.
Even at a standstill,
the X3 by AC Schnitzer shows off its assets - and not only when the
bonnet is open. For the 6-cylinder petrol models 2.8i and 3.5i, an
AC Schnitzer sports exhaust made of stainless steel is currently in
development. This improves response and provides that special
sonorous sound. The chromed "Racing" tailpipe trim sets the
finishing touch to the exhaust system. For purely visual
enhancement, this tailpipe trim is also available as a stand-alone
accessory for diesel variants.
Individualists want to fly high, and to ensure that the agile X3 by
AC Schnitzer remains firmly planted on the ground, the Aachen
engineers have come up with a suspension spring kit for the optimum
combination of sports performance and driving comfort.
The aerodynamic kit for
the new X3 includes a striking front spoiler, the rear roof spoiler
and the AC Schnitzer protective film for the rear skirt.
The AC Schnitzer sports
airbag steering wheel, currently in development, provides that
sports car flair and safety in the interior. As well as the sports
steering wheel, further unique "inner values" of the X3 by AC
Schnitzer catch the eye. Sporting accents are set by the AC
Schnitzer aluminium gear knobs in anodized silver/chrome or "Black
Line“/chrome, or with digital gear display, and the "Black Line“
aluminium cover for the BMW-specific i-Drive system controller.
Further impressive design elements such as the AC Schnitzer
aluminium pedal set, an illuminated leather gear knob, and the AC
Schnitzer velours foot mats, make the fully fitted X3 totally
unmistakeable.
Such a special
appearance must include the right wheels and tyres. This was also
the view of the Aachen-based tuning specialists, who have given the
X3 with BiColor a choice of Type VIII forged racing rims in 22 inch,
or Type VII racing rims in BiColor or silver in 22 inch. One-piece
rims of Type VI (BiColor), Type VIII (BiColor) and Type IV (BiColor
or Silver) are also available in sizes 18, 19 or 20 inch. Forged
alloy wheels Type V in 20 inch are of course also part of the
extensive range.
The AC Schnitzer range
for the new BMW X3 leaves BMW fans with only the problem of choice,
and thus extends the unique versatility of the vehicle with even
more individual driving pleasure.
