Gone are the times when a man had to choose between driving a sports car all alone or settling down with a family, kids and a bumbling monstrosity dubbed ‘station wagon’. The wagons these days are anything if not fast. Tweaked by aftermarket experts over at AC Schnitzer, the family wagon flaunts a front splitter, side skirt extensions and a roof spoiler at the rear end. All parts fit regardless of whether you have the M Sport package installed.

Highlighting the sporty character are assorted alloy wheels coming in sizes up to 20 inches. For suspension, you could either opt for a full coilover kit and get an adjustable ride height reduction within 20–30 mm or go for standard springs and get a fixed 25–35 mm of lowering.

 

In terms of power upgrades, the range-topping M340i spec may be bolstered to 420 PS and 600 Nm of torque. The more affordable four-cylinder 330i spec gets 300 PS and 470 Nm. The 330e PHEV can be persuaded to churn out 340 PS and 480 Nm of torque.

A sports exhaust system rounds off the list. All components can be purchased either as a bundle (typically discounted) or individually.
