Bunch a haters here. The Wing is far from 20 years ago. Standard on an M4 GTS and will soon be an option for the M3 and M4 in 2017.
I'm venturing to guess the wing adds about 200lbs of downforce over 80mph. Maybe ACS has done some research and found the car may fish tail higher speeds. I'm sure they didn't just didn't come up with this for looks alone. The carbon canards are also going to on the 200 units offered DTM M4 which are used on the race car. Form has function esp for cars that operate at the limit |

Wow I can't believe no one is talking about the power increase. Lol.
420HP in the M2 is nothing to be sneezed at.

Wonder how the power increase was achieved. A charge cooler and ecu tune can do that alone on the pretty much tuned all the way to the top M2? Sorry I'm kinda new to this 🤓

I quite like it, minus the front canards. Aesthetically it's pleasing, I think with a RKP Carbon Roof the whole thing will absolutely pop. That means leaving off that rear roof wing.
Glad ACS is showing interest in the M2 chassis, wouldn't mind seeing their setup on the F80/F82 |

Looks
Put sugar on turd and still a turd. M2 N55 engine? C'mon BMW.
Lipstick on a pig. They are running out of ideas, Human Resources and bean counters rule the world. Artists and pioneers are dead. Sad...... Last edited by 747flyboy; 10-29-2016 at 11:58 PM.. |

If you take away the comical wing and canards all it becomes is an overpriced exhaust, wheels, front lip and a tune...which you can hand pick elsewhere and mix and match different brands to your style and price point. If your reasoning for liking this package is the power gains then that's pretty dumb since you can literally buy downpipes and get a tune ANYWHERE and make the same power. This isn't groundbreaking.

As with all ACS stuff you'll raise an eyebrow and not quite figure out what is so appealing. In this case I think it's the function of the package that will satisfy, not so much the looks.

It really is time for acs to come up with a new wheel design and stop updated the same tired two designs from year to year.
Those canards are really lame...

the M2 looks stunning as it is. there is absolutely nothing that needs to be done to it. that being said, the wheels aren't half bad

B) most normal people will look at the design, not the presence or absence of something. So yes there are other less expensive lips and wheels out there but the design of these is nice in my opinion. By your logic why would any wheel company exist when you can get a wheel off eBay, nothing "groundbreaking" by making another wheel with a different design right. And oh yea, having owned several ac schnitzer products I trust their extremely high level of quality over whatever cheaper wheels exhaust tune and lip that are "groundbreaking". People are allowed to have opinions. Get over it.
