And when you combine the perfect body wrap like the Estoril Blue with M Performance carbon fiber package and exquisite wheels from VMR, then you have the perfect ride. And that my friends it is exactly what happened with the model displayed in the media gallery below.

It stands out from the crowd with the plethora of M parts, like front and rear bumpers, rear spoiler, iND painted front reflectors, as well as the BMW M Performance stainless steel exhaust system, all made from carbon fiber composites.

The entire new look is complemented with the new wheels from VMR tuner, which increase its aggressive attitude and high stance.

We are dealing here with the VMR V804 alloy wheels, sized 18 x 8.5 and 18 9.5 front and rear, respectively, finished as well in Hyper Silver. The wheels also increase the car`s stability and provide better grip during tight corners.

As for the car`s powertrain, this remains stock. Even so, we are looking here at a 3.0-liter BMW TwinPower Turbo mill, with 340 horsepower and 500 Nm of torque, quite enough to deliver a sprint from 0 to 100 km/h in just 4.4 seconds. The top speed is also electronically limited at 250 km/h. You can find out more about the model in the media gallery below!

The tuner`s new aero kit is absolutely mind-blowing, being created from a plethora of carbon fiber composites and providing the model with an exceptional look and aggressive attitude.

We are looking here at the ACL2S carbon fiber package, which comes with ten-piece carbon fiber components – carbon fiber front spoiler and side mirrors, front splitter, bespoke side skirts, rear roof spoiler, carbon fiber rear diffuser and fiber wing. The entire kit is complemented with the new AC Schnitzer AC1 alloy wheels available in black or silver.

Inside, the cabin has also received special features like aluminum pedals set, “One of Thrity” badging, three-spoke leather steering wheel with color-matched stitching and so on.

As for the car`s engine under the hood, the BMW M240i ACL2S by AC Schnitzer also comes with new power and torque. The 3.0-liter six-cylinder engine is now churning out 440 horsepower and 442 lb-ft of torque, which is quite impressive from the stock 340 horsepower.

The power kit includes an ECU remapping, new downpipe, custom air intake and new exhaust system. The tuner have also added their famous fully-adjustable RS suspension kit, which lowers the car`s ride height for increased stance.

Unfortunately for BMW petrol heads who love customized products, only 30 units will be produced, each one coming with a staggering price of $83,000. You can find out more about the project in the media gallery below!

One of those models that used to impress everybody with its evolutionary and aggressive design is no other than the M235i from the 2-Series, which has recently received a set of new rims from well-known tuner HRE Wheels.

The technicians from HRE Wheels aftermarket shop are well-known for their customizations on BMW products, and their dedication have really paid-off, as orders from BMW owners are pouring in.

The model in question can be admired in the media gallery below with the plethora of M Performance Parts around the body, complemented now with the tuner`s new wheels.

Starting with the new aero part, the BMW M235i can be admired with new front splitter, side skirts, lip spoiler, blacked out kidney grilles and revised rear diffuser. Mechanically, the model is sitting on a new lowering kit as well, which provides a more aggressive look.

As for the car`s new wheels, we are dealing here with the HRE F15 FLowForm hot wheels, sized 18 inches and weighing just 19 lbs, providing thus increase stance and stability on the road.

As the tuner stated in a recent interview, the HRE F15 FlowForm wheels are TUV, JWL and VIA certified, and come with a two-year Finish Warranty, as well as with a Lifetime Limited Structural Warranty.

We are looking here at the ACL2 tuning kit, the model being highlighted in Dusseldorf, Germany at a Cars and Coffee event. The video below is also showcasing the car`s new kit and exhaust system with an impressive soundtrack.

The aero kit consists of wide styling elements, like wide fenders, bespoke front and rear bumpers with add-ons, while at the rear, the model received a massive and standout wing, increasing the car`s aggressive attitude.

As we can depict from the video, the model is also highlighted by the new exhaust system with new pipes, limited slip differential with Drezler diff lock, or ECU remapping, all of these increasing the car`s power under the hood.

The stock 3.0-liter S55 is now coming with 570 horsepower on-board, thanks to the aforementioned new mechanics. We don’t know the performance figures, but it is surely much faster than the stock model. Built for its own private collection, the tuner has also revealed that the customized model now costs an impressive 150,000 euros.

My question for today: is an M235i worth the pricing tag of 150,000 euros? I mean, for that kind of money you could get a Porsche Panamera all tweaked with gigantic power and other fine mechanics!

It has all it takes to transform a small coupe, like the 2 Series, in a cool looking sports car, adding extra wideness together with a bit of aggressiveness. But there’s a condition: don’t stop here! If you opt for this kit, you must also lower the ride, by buying a sport suspension kit, and match the wideness with a new, proper set of wheels. They must have a big diameter, to perfectly fit the wheel arches, and a specific wideness, to be perfectly aligned with the fenders line. And there you have a perfect looking car!

All you need is a BMW M235i, to reflect its looks under the bonnet. The new 3 liter twin scroll turbo, inline-6 engine, which delivers 326 PS and 450 Nm @ 1300 – 4500 rpm, can do miracles: 0-100km/h in 4.8 seconds and 1 km with standing start in only 23.8 seconds.

The kit consists of a custom made front bumper, with a spoiler lip, bespoke side skirts and fender extensions, redesigned rear bumper with diffuser and a boot lip spoiler. The kit is entirely made of Fiberglass – Duraflex, a fact that transforms it in one of the most affordable kits on the market.

But we have seen it again at Geneva Motor Show, this time with its wheels on the ground, and with a whole list of details. And, my God…they’re sensational!

Let’s start with the body kit made by the german tuner from carbon fiber. It fits flawlessly on the 2 Series coupe, giving it a wide stance and, therefore, a visual stability. It includes a redesigned front bumper, completed by a splitter, two pairs of fins mounted on the wings, wide side skirts and a newly-designed rear apron with diffuser.

On the trunk, a thin, but aggressive wing gives us a hint about the dynamic performance the model is capable of. The engine hood presents a pair of vents for a better air circulation inside the engine bay, while the huge wheel arches widen the body by 140 mm, giving some space to the 20 inches wheels.

Onboard, a small display, hosted by one of the air diffusers, shows information about the boost pressure, oil and intake temperature, and several other useful data. The aluminum pedals and the redesigned steering wheel give a sportier look to the interior, while the carbon racing seats add style, while saving weight.

Now, let’s open up the engine’s hood to admire the real performer. In the M235i’s chest doesn’t beat the original heart anymore. It’s an M4 powertrain, with a modified ECU, a completely redesigned intake, made of carbon fiber, and a one-of-a-kind exhaust system. The result is impressive: 570 hp and 740 Nm of torque, which are enough to accelerate the M235i to 100 km/h in just 3.9 seconds. Top speed? 330 km/h.

If you find it irresistible, you won’t be glad to hear that it’s not for sale. But the producer estimates its price at € 149,000.

BMW Cabrios look pretty sexy with aftermarket parts and a Hamann body kit turns necks on the street. We might say the same thing about this cool Hamann M235i Cabriolet, even if there were just minor upgrades.

Surely that this would be a special Hamann kit, as it does not spoil the car`s real personality. We are dealing here with a fresh set of Hamann Anniversary Evo alloy wheels, which perfectly highlights the cabriolet`s black body wrap. Besides the new wheels and slightly revised front and rear bumpers, the car remains pretty much the same.

Under the hood, the straight-six turbocharged engine develops a stock 326 horsepower, allowing a sprint from 0 to 100 km/h in a good 5.2 seconds, and even if it is less powerful than the coupe version, it does offer a unique sensation when driven with the folded hardtop out in the hot summer days.

DS Automobile has also released an impressive photo gallery with their latest creation, so enjoy the ride and don’t forget to share your opinions with us!

Such an example of a job well-done is this BMW M235i highlighted here in a video, the model standing on a trail and getting ready to be sent….perhaps to 2016 Geneva Motor Show?!?

The BMW M235i is the top of the line version of the 2-Series, the model fitting the same 3.0-liter TwinPower Turbo inline six-cylinder unit, also seen underneath the M3 and M4 siblings.

The engine outputs 362 horsepower and 450 Nm of torque, allowing a sprint from 0 to 100 km/h in just 4.8 seconds, when hooked to the 8-speed automatic transmission. This particular model is also expected to carry a power boost under the hood, but the tuner has not revealed any news on that matter.

From a visual standpoint, the BMW M235i is looking extremely aggressive with the custom front and rear aprons, heavily modified bumpers, aerodynamic flaps, custom door mirrors, wide rear wing, ACL2 inscription on the sides, massive brakes and the huge five-spoke rims. All indicate a track-focused version.

We are definitely one hundred percent sure that we will be seeing the model displayed at the tuner`s stand in Geneva, starting next Tuesday! Meanwhile, enjoy the video with the hot model!

The power kit was carried out by the German folks from the famous G-Power tuner, and involves the fitting of the Bi-Tronik 5 V1 module, high-grade sports catalysts as well as the new free-flow air filters. All of them make it extremely powerful and fast.

We are dealing here with a power boost from 260 horsepower and 450 Nm of torque to an impressive 380 horsepower and 530 Nm of torque, while the newly unveiled 2016 BMW M2 Coupe churns out less, 365 horsepower.

This hot red BMW M235i is also standing quite good when it comes to performance figures. We are dealing here with just 4.5 seconds from 0 to 100 km/h. The car`s topping can also be raised from 250 km/h to 300 km/h thanks to the removal of the top speed limiter.

As you probably know, G-Power tuner isn’t used to customizing its models from a visual standpoint, so if you have such a powerful model at your door, just take it to Prior Design for instance, for a complete make-over.

We are all familiar with the tuner`s work and this black 220i coupe is another example of its special skills and devotement. The model looks extremely well and packs an impressive power under the hood.

There are just a bunch of body mods at the front and rear bumpers, along with the 8.5 x 19 inch mbDESIGN LV-1 wheels, all wrapped with the high-performance Michelin Pilot Super Sport rubbers.

Under the hood, this black 22i is special from the rest, thanks to the new upgrades carried out at its engine. We are dealing here with a new turbocharger being added, a sport Kat 200cspi, a new engine software, downpipes and a few more.

Thus, the 2.0-liter engine is churning out 360 horsepower, compared to the stock 326 horsepower, allowing a sprint from 0 to 100 km/h in 7.0 seconds, at a topping of 235 km/h. The performance is also given by the lighter chassis, the new KW Coilover Variant 3 suspension and the new wheels.
