Here we have another German tuning project, this time from the company Hartge on the BMW 6-Series convertible sports car. There are many tuning companies out there that like to modify the BMW platform. The largest include names such as Hamann, AC Schnitzer, and Prior Design. But Hartge has put out some nice kits for the BMW line of cars, this time for the F12 6-Series convertible. Now this tuning package may be light, but is still aesthetically pleasing. The exterior received new emblems, dual tail pipes, and new alloys rims measuring 19-20 inches. These come wrapped in high performance tires that fit perfectly in the wheel wells, and then the tuners moved to the interior of the BMW 6-Series convertible.

The German tuning firm Lumma Design has turned to the BMW 6-Series Cabriolet for modifications. The specialists at Lumma are known for unique designs and typical German styling, like seen here with the black rear wing on this 6-Series. Included in the new kit is a front bumper, rear bumper, grill inserts, rear wing, and a new exhaust system to improve the sound. It wouldn’t be a BMW tuning project without a new set of wheels, so Lumma Design added their own rims measuring 21×9.5 up front, 21×10.5 at the rear, and come wrapped in high performance tires sized 255/30R21, and 295/25R21 respectively.

Dominating the limelight at the AC Schnitzer booth were the BMW Z4-based 99d sports car, and the BMW 550i-based ACS5. The Geneva Motor Show was a hit this year, and both of these models offer superb performance without sacraficing the fuel efficiency and CO2 emissions. The BMW Z4 99d received a 2.0-liter, 190 horsepower turbo diesel engine, while the BMW 550i ACS5 holds a 4.4-liter V8 producing 540 horses from the turbocharged powerplant. Hit the jump to watch the videos from AC Schnitzer.

BMW is still working on the production model of the new 5-Series sports car, however tuning companies across Europe like Prior Design are starting to announce the plans with some teaser pictures. Here we have some initial images of the F10 BMW 5-Series, which also were featured on the new 6-Series coupe and convertible models. Prior Design has been limited with the details, but it is obviously that styling package consists of a redesigned front bumper, front lip, hood vents, side skirts, fender vents, new rear bumper, and integrated diffuser holding the four exhaust pipes. The wheels will round out the package, and as we see here a nice set of black alloy rims complete the tuning job for the German BMW M5. More details and final pictures should be released soon.
