German Bimmer tuner AC Schnitzer (ACS) has released a new wide body kit for the X5 dubbed the Falcon. The styling package draws its name from new front and rear wheel arch flairs, or “wings” as AC Schnitzer refers to them. The beauty of the Falcon lies in its subtle details, like its two triangular metal-rimmed air intakes in the hood, which play off the “bird of prey” theme. Schnitzer’s new X5 kit also includes a lowering spring kit, sport exhaust system, a fly set of 22-inch rims and a variety of custom interior accents. On the 3.0 liter diesel engine, ACS offers an electronically upgrade that takes takes up the power from to 310hp from the standard 286hp.
