BMW M-series cars, in particular are uncompromising: The AC Schnitzer PROFILE is a thoroughbred driving machine.
The AC Schnitzer PROFILE based on BMW Z4 M Coupé
Take the first ascent of the 8,848 metre high Mount Everest, the expeditions to the poles or the dive into the 11 km deep canyon of the Mariana Trench. There have always been individuals and extreme characters who have pushed our boundaries and discovered new terrain.
An extreme region for automotive tuners, where only a few venture, has always been the BMW M-series cars, in particular the uncompromising Z4 M Coupé, a thoroughbred driving machine.
The Technic of the AC Schnitzer PROFILE

But the fact that the limits of this extraordinary car are far from reached is evident from the concept vehicle even at first glance. Classic engine tuning hauls the power of the high-revving six-cylinder in-line plant to a robust 350 HP.
Not only is a special "active breathing" airbox used, but the engine control unit has been remapped. But power alone isn’t enough to get the maximum from an athletic heart.

So the modified rear axle ratio of 3.91:1 provides better sprint capacity, while the perfectly smooth transmission with the AC Schnitzer Short Shift ensures crisp changes by the driver.
And as you listen to the sonorous baritone note of the left/right sports exhaust system with the trapezoid tailpipes, you could be deceived into thinking there are no gear changes, just the playing of an instrument.
The Suspension Technology of the AC Schnitzer PROFILE

Traction alone isn't everything, and the dynamics are supported by a height adjustable RS adjustable suspension with its heritage, set up in the Green Hell of the Nürburgring. In addition the special sway bar set is responsible for even more driving stability.

Of course the sports suspension of the PROFILE has been tested on the North Loop of the Nürburging as well as on public roads.
The Wheels of the AC Schnitzer PROFILE

For both acceleration and deceleration, it is the wheels which are permanently under full load in all manoeuvres.
The forged alloy Type V wheels from the standard AC Schnitzer collection are a work of art in themselves. Filigree design yet with an air of solidity, in size 9.0J x 20" at the front and 10.0J x 20" at the rear, these wheels are the perfect adornment combined with tyres size 235/30 ZR 20 front and 295/25 ZR 20 rear.
The Interior of the AC Schnitzer PROFILE

The interior of the AC Schnitzer PROFILE is a combination of developments from the AC Schnitzer range which are available for many BMW models, and special one-off products. The latter include amongst others the racing seats in leather with AC Schnitzer logo and the carbon interior trim in Orange. Velours foot mats with embroidered PROFILE logo complete the interior. The aluminium accessories consisting of pedal set, foot rests, handbrake handle and a cover for the controller of the "i-Drive system" are however an established part of the AC Schnitzer range.
