(from AC Schnitzer
Press Release) An eyecatcher at first glance - this calls
for a closer look. AC Schnitzer presents the new styling
and performance package for the BMW X6
The new BMW X6 exerts a
particular form of magnetism: not only does its chassis sit
perfectly on the road, it also magically attracts attention. Now it
appears there is only one place where the fascination, dynamism and
presence of the first Sports Activity Coupé (SAC) can be enhanced:
in the workshops of AC Schnitzer in Aachen. The result is a visual
and technical masterpiece which further magnifies the core qualities
of the X6.
In the X6 by AC
Schnitzer, the front skirt with its diagonal air intakes and
repositioned fog lights are exposed. The drive-under protection has
been removed in favour of a more dynamic contour of the spoiler
edge. The rear carries a massive skirt with framed edges. In
contrast to the original, all components are painted body-colour
throughout, so the body appears downstretched and hence more
dominant. Instead of the drive-under protection originally fitted
here, AC Schnitzer Designer Michele Viandante has opted for a rear
diffuser.
Another eyecatcher is
the chromed tailpipes of the dual-flow exhaust system in AC
Schnitzer
Racing Design. The BMW X6 is not the only SAC in the world, but it
is one of the first vehicles to be fitted with the multipiece AC
Schnitzer alloy wheels Type Vll. With their black paint and tightly
arranged spokes, the 22" rims present a challenging stance. The
changing angles of the web pairs give an air of sophistication.
Typical AC Schnitzer:
The vehicle's appearance is not misleading, but simply a reflection
of its inner values. The renowned BMW tuner has developed a real
firecracker under the bonnet of the diesel versions 3.0dX and 3.5dX
with a new Motor Control Unit. Precise performance data will be
released shortly. Of course, sheer engine power is not the only
ingredient in sporting performance. So Manfred Wollgarten, Technical
Director of AC Schnitzer, has developed a unique suspension spring
kit for the X6 on the North Loop of the Nürburgring.
One thing can be
disclosed: Despite its high body, the X6 by AC Schnitzer in this
configuration will show a clean pair of heels to many sports
saloons. Perfect handling with corresponding Look and Feel is
ensured by the "EVO" 3-spoke Sport Airbag steering wheel. With AC
Schnitzer, you hold the road firmly in almost any position. The X6
by AC Schnitzer takes control on public roads as willingly as on
changing terrain with varying up and down gradients!
