(from AC Schnitzer
Press Release) A Power Pack Beyond the Standard: The 1-series
M Coupé by AC Schnitzer
High performance,
outstanding technology and an authentic motorsport atmosphere are
expressed in just one letter at BMW: M. First-class tuning for BMW
comes in several letters to form one name: AC Schnitzer. With the
1-series M Coupé, BMW has unleashed a power pack with athletic
design onto the road. The Aachen-based tuning experts AC Schnitzer
reveal their own interpretation of the coupé with racing genes at
the IAA in Frankfurt.
The heart of the
1-series M Coupé by AC Schnitzer is the power upgrade from a
standard 340 to 400 HP. Together with the AC Schnitzer power plant
and engine bay styling, this is available - like the AC Schnitzer
Bonnet Vents - only for the export market. Here in Germany, the AC
Schnitzer twin sports rear silencer with chromed "Racing“ tailpipe
trims right and left helps the six-cylinder engine breathe more
freely and creates an individual sound picture to suit the sporting
image.
The increased power is
balanced by the AC Schnitzer high performance brake kit for the
front and rear axles. A 6-piston fixed caliper on the front and a
4-piston fixed caliper on the rear combine with perforated,
internally vented brake discs and caliper holders to ensure rapid
and stable deceleration for such a power pack.
Safe cornering is
ensured by the AC Schnitzer racing suspension, which is fully
height-adjustable. The threaded suspension, adjustable both in
compression and rebound, provides total control and maximum agility
and dynamism.
As well as pure power,
the 1-series M Coupé by AC Schnitzer also comes with aerodynamic
components. A carbon front spoiler, chromed front grille, carbon
rear diffusor and the AC Schnitzer design elements on the front
wings show what can still be achieved in the 1-series when it comes
to high performance and motorsport ambience.
In the interior too, AC
Schnitzer is taking a step beyond the standard. The painted centre
console and interior trim in "Valencia Orange“, the AC Schnitzer
"Black Line“ aluminium gear knob and handbrake handle and the "Black
Line“ aluminium cover for the i-Drive system controller leave almost
nothing to be desired inside the 1-series M Coupé. But it that's not
enough, you can also add the AC Schnitzer aluminium foot rest and
pedal set, and velour foot mats for the passengers and perhaps even
lay your hand on the AC Schnitzer sports steering wheel in alcantara.
The 340 or 400 HP are
delivered via the transmission to the wide, weight-optimised 19 or
20-inch wheels. Choose from Type VIII and Type V forged alloy wheels
in BiColor, Type VIII and Type IV wheels in BiColor and Type IV in
silver with corresponding tyres to transfer the power to the road.
Once there, letters and name come together to form a whole
representing the ultimate in technology and style: the AC Schnitzer
ACS1 Sport Coupé.
