BMW tuning enthusiasts know the name AC Schnitzer well, one of the tuners with the longest historical ties to the Bavarian brand BMW. Based in Aachen and founded in 1987 by Willi Kohl and Herbert Schnitzer, the tuner has become over the years a benchmark for those who love more extreme and customized versions of the German automaker’s cars. Together with Alpina, later transformed into a true automaker, it has been one of the most important names in the world of BMW-focused tuning.
