It doesn't need to be limited, just order the factory option speed pack or driver's pack whatever the name is, and the stock car is released up to 305 km/h anyway.

What happened to AC Schnitzer? They went down hill years ago. I still remember in the mid-90's, their products were amazing. Now I would be embarrassed to drive one of their monstrosities.

I think they now cater to their Russian and Dubai clientele. Which means gaudy grotesque cars.

lol @ the video

ts61gogo · 06-01-2012, 03:42 PM

I don't even care about its performance...
It does look like crap.

vladberca · 06-01-2012, 03:52 PM

The stock car looks great! It doesn't need so many useless parts!
For performance upgrade I'm curious what ESS will offer

BMW_Boy7 · 06-01-2012, 03:58 PM

Only good thing is the new power the rest needs to b remodeled..

teebo2345 · 06-01-2012, 11:53 PM

Fail, fail, fail. Oh my god fail.

silentassasin · 06-02-2012, 12:57 AM

We all had our fair share of trashing the shopping cart spoiler, lame
Stickers and the wheels.

Performance is nice.

Agree, honestly from all M5's that produced in the last 10 years or some my hat off for only the E39 chassis and nothing after.

Russia & Dubai clientele!! Have you been in any, especially Dubai? Gorgeous cars with 10/10 freeways.

kbryce · 06-02-2012, 01:35 PM

i think it looks terrible

Rolitto · 06-02-2012, 02:46 PM

Don't talk to me about ACS or any other tuners.

ysp · 06-02-2012, 03:44 PM

I like more the original m5 than the tuning one just my taste nice video anyway!

NlckyBlack · 06-02-2012, 05:46 PM

Did they have that much success with their E60 version that they maintained and applied the same ugly treatment to the F10? My six month old sons can design a better product..

SPJ · 06-03-2012, 12:35 AM

they turned an M5 into an EVO...wtf ??

OBI_agent · 06-03-2012, 04:28 AM

Why do you get rid of those beautiful quad exhaust. Now it looks like M550xdrive piece of crap.
Really disappointed with Schnitzer

DrShimmy · 06-04-2012, 07:04 AM

My disdain for their brand grows with each passing model.
This is truly one of the ugliest remake/after market modifications you could do. Their 1M make over was horrible this one is even worse.

1M

M5

woo1 · 06-07-2012, 09:23 PM

The factory design looks a lot better, in my opinion.

hotrod182 · 06-09-2012, 08:55 AM

Doesn't it seem like the stock M5 is accelerating just as quick up to 270km/hr?
