AACHEN, Germany — AC Schnitzer, which most recently unveiled a tuning package for the BMW 3 Series convertible, has a new focus: the newly redesigned Mini Cooper.
Schnitzer's R56 package for the new Mini is built around the 170-horsepower turbo engine. The tuner fits a performance exhaust system with chrome tailpipe, as well as a Schnitzer racing suspension developed on the Nürburgring.
An aero body kit bundles a body-color front spoiler and contrasting rear skirt with integrated diffuser. There is a choice of Schnitzer alloy wheels in 17- and 18-inch sizes.
Interior modifications include aluminum pedals and a gauge package.
What this means to you: Wouldn't you want a BMW tuner reworking your Mini?
