AC Schnitzer X5 based on 3.0d
 

Gents,

A lot of activity from the ACS front. Is there some kind of event next week in Frankfurt?????:rofl:

They spiced up the 3.0d and tuned up the bodywork. I still like the Aero Kit from BMW better but the ACS add-ons make the OEM M sports pack (on which this is based I believe and which I always found horrible) look a bit better.

I did get second thoughts about ordering the Type IV wheels in black in stead of the Ferric Grey I have on order now. I kind of like the type IV wheels in black on the AW X5.

Anyway, see for yourself. Specs and pictures below

I don't like the black 'inserts' on the bumper... By the way, the M sportpack is IRL much nicer than when seen on pics! I went to Hasselt last week just to see one (a black one which was already sold) and I found it VERY nice ! The one thing I don't like is the absence of the alu boards. So I am leaning towards the aero pack aswell when taking into account all the pros and cons.

Does anyone know where is the best place to order the ACS iDrive knob and steering wheel in the US? Best prices???

Thanks,
Chris

Zomg those are wide tires

I like it, Type VI wheels are shit, I never liked the type IV until I saw these

the new acs rims come 22x11.5 for the rears, must explain the wide azz tire!

anyone every get a body kit like this or anything other then teh aero kit?

Is it my imagination? Did i miss something or am i seeing to sets of wheels
in those top 2 pictures

Nothing wrong with your eyesight. There are two different sets of wheels. Tuners do it all the time on press photo's. Quite normal.
