Fast, Fierce, And Fully Legal: Here's BMW M2 Polizei By AC Schnitzer
by AutoExpert | 1 December, 2024
Who says police cars have to be boring? In Germany, they’re rewriting the rules with the “Tune it! Safe!” campaign—a program that transforms high-performance cars into fully street-legal police cruisers, all in the name of promoting safe, responsible tuning.
For that occasion, AC Schnitzer has created a stunning BMW M2 that exudes style and power. Imagine spotting this beast in your rearview mirror: silver, blue, and yellow paint flashing in the sunlight, bold “Polizei” decals plastered across the doors, and a roof-mounted siren that means business.
Meanwhile, the aggressive styling really steals the show—a carbon fiber front splitter, side skirts, canards, and a roof spoiler. Out back, a massive wing with a Gurney flap tops off the look. Staggered AC4 forged rims in a striking Tech Gold finish complement the suspension setup, which precisely lowers the car for the ideal stance.
Under the hood, AC Schnitzer refined the M2's twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter inline-six to produce 553 horsepower and 650 Nm of torque. That’s a 100-hp boost over stock. Paired with a custom exhaust featuring quad carbon-fiber tips, this car doesn’t just look fast—it sounds it, too. Inside, the M2 keeps things clean and purposeful. Sporty touches like aluminum shift paddles, pedals, and AC Schnitzer-branded headrests add just enough flair.
No police radios or gadgets, though—this is strictly a show car. But imagining it in a high-speed pursuit? Hard to resist. Germany's transport ministry and police support the "Tune it! Safe!" campaign, a serious effort to promote safe tuning practices. AC Schnitzer, along with other big names like TechArt and Abt Sportsline, regularly contributes to the campaign, proving that you can push boundaries without breaking the rules.
