(from AC Schnitzer Press Release) MINI goes V/Max
AC Schnitzer gives
the new generation more power and stunning looks
Retro but not old-fashioned sassy and practical authentic but no
copy: Few cars have mastered the balancing act as well as the new
MINI, the latest generation of which is now in the showrooms. In
design terms it remains true to its predecessor, but doesn't stop
there technically. In detail no MINI looks like the next, because
individuality takes priority amongst its owners.
Anyone wanting to stand out from the crowd of MINI owners, not just in appearance but also in performance, should turn to AC Schnitzer. The present focus of the tuner's development activities is the new 170 HP turbo engine in the Cooper S, for which AC Schnitzer develops a performance upgrade. And when the driver puts the power down, the sound track plays loud and clear, thanks to the sonorous twin sports silencer with chromed Racing tailpipe.
Full gas to the next
corner and through it at full speed! Touring Car legend Manfred Wollgarten set up the AC Schnitzer racing suspension on the North
Loop of the Nrburgring - and it runs rings round the already very
good standard suspension. You can feel the difference just with the
AC Schnitzer suspension spring kit. But back from the track to the
city: Out of the reflective glass facades flashes the face of a
model athlete. AC Schnitzer achieves this masterpiece with a few
tricks. The front bumper has a new front spoiler. Painted in body
colour, and with its striking prominent corners, it sets
a clear visual highlight. The sassy rear has also been subtly
lifted. The rear skirt from AC Schnitzer, painted in contrast to
standard, has a diffuser which effectively pulls the MINI down to
the tarmac.
Two sporting wheel designs, the brand-new Bicolor wheel Mi2 in 7.5 x18" and the Mi1 in the classic AC Schnitzer look in 7.5 x 17", complete the sporting range. And naturally the enthusiastic MINI fan has a wealth of matching accessories for the interior. Such as the attractive controls and sports pedals of aluminium naturally from AC Schnitzer.
