Carscoop: ESSEN Motor Show: AC Schnitzer ACS3 Coupe

ESSEN is Europe’s way of saying… SEMA and what would a tuning show in Germany be without AC Schnitzer! This year, the German based BMW specialist will debut at the ESSEN Show (December 1 – 10) the ACS3 Coupe. Based on the E92 3 Series Coupe, the ACS3 features a new bodykit, alloys and depending on the depth of your wallet, various suspension and engine upgrades. BTW: Check out the rear end pic and compare it with the ¾ rear view one. Notice something strange about the exhaust pipes? Via: Autoblog.nl & AC Schnitzer
