Tuner Special: AC Schnitzer X6

    0 Ratings
    AACHEN, Germany — BMW tuner AC Schnitzer has launched its first major package for the BMW X6 , offering styling and performance modifications for customers in Europe.

    The body-colored aero kit bundles a new front bumper fascia with diagonal air intakes and foglamps, plus a huge rear bumper fascia with diffuser and integrated tailpipe cutouts. You can mount your choice of ultralow-profile performance rubber on Schnitzer's black 22-inch Type VII multipiece alloy rims.

    The performance kit is available initially on the X6 3.0d and 3.5d diesels, which get a reprogrammed engine control unit and other unspecified mods. Schnitzer also offers upgraded springs, said to be custom-tailored at the Nürburgring, and a racing-style exhaust system with chrome tips.

    An EVO three-spoke steering wheel highlights the subtle changes to the cabin.

    What this means to you: Gosh, couldn't they do a better job of disguising the original design? — Paul Lienert, Correspondent
