It is not every day you see the one-off BMW Z4 being transformed in something unique, as this model eventually ended up, thanks to the aftermarket specialists from the famous German AC Schnitzer tuning company.

I am talking about a bold project carried out on the BMW Z4, the model bearing the ACZ4 5.0d name in its final shape. It involves the sDrive23i version which has been completely customized in terms of performance under the hood.

In order to gain more power, the AC Schnitzer tuner have fitted the BMW ACZ4 5.0d with some cool performance features, like the better suspension system, sportier brakes, while the overall body weight has been also reduced, to improve driving dynamics and performance on the tracks or roads.

As for the engine under the hood, the AC Schnitzer have replaced the old-school 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder and fitted the N57S 3.0-liter tri-turbo diesel engine, which now develops an increased 430 horsepower and impressive 840 Nm of torque. The higher performance is also given by the ECU remap, which made its way under the hood as well. With all this new power, the BMW ACZ4 5.0d is now capable of sprinting from 0 to 100 km/h in just 4.5 seconds, at a toping of 300 km/h.

The BMW ACZ4 5.0d seen here is perhaps the only one to be seen customized by the guys from the AC Schnitzer, the model coming at a whopping price of 113,965 euros. But be glad to see it on the streets in this shape, as the carmaker is planning of putting off the stock version, making room for a future BMW Z5.
