Usually i hate their styling but i think they hit the nail on the head here. I would 100% own/drive that car.
Was going to say it actually looks good. Finally since the 90s a good looking package lol

100% agree with you, but what don't understand is how people have complain about their styling over the years and now that they finally do something nice "IMO" there are still talking junk...

No, nothing good really, they just do their own version of the M235i (with a proper manual gearbox) that laps the Nordschleife faster than an M4 GTS and have a racing heritage that is as good as the factory's...



Cars by AC Schnitzer are tested regularly by German magazines and usually get excellent reviews. It's just they are not very know outside of Europe. However no one can deny their engineering based on actual racing experience. They are also regularly voted by readers of Sport Auto, one of the most respected car magazine in Germany as the best Tuner, year after year...

Perhaps it's because I've only seen them make horrible looking exterior components and nasty looking wheels. And now it looks like they've deviated from the atrocious rectangle exhaust that they've made forever and simply decided to copy the f90 m5 rear lol. There are plenty of tuners that are great and i'm sure lots of companies can swap tires, flash tune, improve the suspension, increase the airflow with a new exhaust and swap an auto for a manual on a smaller car like the 2 series and get a better time than the gts. The point being, this company has to make something appealing for many people to spend their money on like exterior components, and it so happens that they look like crap. And now they just copy the M division
dude just stop typing you just got handle a spoon full and you are still at it, with the comment of how they copy the m5 rear m division blah blah

Yeah, Eastern Europeans are really known to throw their moneys around on brand new expensive cars. Every time I see an exotic with a body kit revving it up on Oxford street I think to myself "damn these eastern europeans and their riches".

I don't know who may like the new 5er. The taillight design especially. Hopefully LCI will fix this fiasco.
F10 had some issues with front end, and so did e60. This one is like improving f10 front end by worsening the rear... not a fan.

Think he was referring to their questionable taste in cars. Quite often when I see a riced up German car it has Eastern European plates on it.

I think ACS are doing pretty well in the Middle-East though. There you can see Bimmers being equipped with their parts already at the dealer.
