BMW
3-Series LCI by AC Schnitzer
Gearing
up for the Essen Tuning Show, the German tuner garnished the brand-new BMW
3-Series LCI with a fresh new look to go with its sharp style and
maneuverability.
So,
it comes as no surprise to learn that AC Schnitzer’s own sporty package appeals
to the driver enthusiast by offering either a fully height- adjustable
suspension with adjustable compression and rebound settings, which lowers the
3-series by around 30 - 40 mm, or a fully-fledged sports suspension which slams
the car lower to the ground by 25 - 30 mm at the front and 20 - 25 mm at the
rear.
Complementing
the car’s stance is, of course, the new body-kit which sports a subtle
appearance (including a revised front splitter, carbon mirror covers, rear roof
spoiler and rear spoiler into the mix), but emphasizes the 3-Series dynamic
traits.
But
the best thing about AC Schnitzer’s creation is the entire bundle appeals to a
wide variety of BMW 3-Series owners. The package isn’t exclusive to the
high-end powertrains, but instead stretches throughout the entire line-up,
lending itself to petrol and diesel animated variants as well. The performance
upgrades for the petrol-engine models deliver between 201 HP (for the 316i) and
355 HP (for the 335i), while the diesel units pump out between 137 HP and 354
HP.
