Quote:

AC Schnitzer has unveiled the production version of its latest customization kit for the BMW 6-Series and M6. Called the Tension Street Version, the kit introduces new air intakes, revised front and rear aprons, a rear carbon diffuser, a stainless steel twin exhaust system, custom wheels, a two-tone paint scheme, and a custom trunk lid. For the 6-Series, a choice of 367 and 411 horsepower engines are offered. No changes are made to the M6's engine, but brakes are upgraded for increased stopping power. Inside, carbon and aluminum trim is added, and the speedometer now reflects a top speed of 330 km/h.

Repainting a car is expensive, so AC improvised images/smilies/eek.gif

Holy shit check out the Knob that controls the iDrive images/smilies/tongue.gif

Vette Boss · September 20th, 2006, 04:17 AM

I think the 6-er/M6 looks okay in stock form, one of the very few new BMWs I actually like now. And now these people go and make it worse.

Don't get me started on the iDrive knob. images/smilies/twisted.gif

Cobol74 · September 20th, 2006, 05:43 AM

Off topic a bit but in a right hand drive car the i-Drive has to be operated with the left hand and is uncomfortable. This thing is as CAMP as a boy scout Jamboree.

un-dee · September 20th, 2006, 08:33 AM

Apart from that chin spoiler and iDrive Button it looks pretty good imho.

Viper007Bond · September 20th, 2006, 10:33 AM

You missed an important change (the trunk):

Kinda liked the original version they showed on the IAA last year more... More radical...

Lilleput · September 20th, 2006, 10:48 AM

Can you get the iDrive knob in chrome? please tell me you can images/smilies/unsure.gif

the Interceptor · September 20th, 2006, 11:02 AM

All I can say about that car is images/smilies/bmwpoo.gif

I like the new shape of the bootlid though, looks better than the original one in my opinion (which isn't much of an archievement, if we're honest).

Audio file attempt appreciated images/smilies/smile.gif

As for the colour scheme: it is better than a wooden trim on the side, but I probably wouldn't order it that way.

watto · September 20th, 2006, 02:21 PM

Mmmmmm. not sure about that paint scheme but the boot certainly looks nicer. Flows really well with the rest of the car 8)

I was too tired to upload another picture! images/smilies/lol.gif

but, the trunk is the one revision that I actually like...

vRS · September 20th, 2006, 03:45 PM

It looks nice, the i-drive nob is cooler, the normal BMW one is similar to our washing machine control, im not kidding btw.

No amount of work can make a Bangle Boot look good.
