In such cases, enthusiasts look to the aftermarket, hoping that tuners and coachbuilders do something different to improve the appearance and performance of the car. AC-Schnitzer has done just that with the BMW M440i. The company has offered a few tweaks to enhance the car’s aesthetics.

Updates include the AC Schnitzer front spoiler, front splitter, side skirts, a rear roof spoiler, rear skirt protection foil, and the tuner’s badges spread throughout the vehicle. The brand also offers a set of new wheels for those who are interested in different designs.

Concerning performance, AC Schnitzer has tuned the BMW M4 engine to produce 420 hp and 442 lb-ft of torque. The regular powertrain is only good for 374 hp and 369 lb-ft of torque. In number terms, that is a 36 hp increase and a more than generous addition to the torque range. The German tuner can also tweak the BMW 430i and increase its power from 258 hp to 300 hp. 

AC Schnitzer also offers a new stainless steel exhaust system with various tip designs. Consumers can choose from carbon fiber or black chrome tips.

There are no reports with regards to the price, but it is natural for tuned vehicles to cost well above the top-of-the-line variant.

However, there are certain models that we need to pay more attention to, especially since they are created to make our lives easier and better. One of those models that were somehow left in the dark is the BMW 435i, which can now be admired in its plenitude in the video below.

The journalists from Smoking Tires have put together a video which highlights the exquisite aptitudes of a gorgeous BMW 435i, and even if we are dealing here with a partially modified one, the car is still worth watching and admiring. All modifications are meant to increase the car`s driving capabilities.

At the exterior, the model is wrapped in a gorgeous and exotic colour, adding as well some aftermarket parts and mechanics.

Besides the stock suspension and brakes, this model seen here comes with the Evolution Racewerks charge pupe, Gintani catless downpipe with Supersprint exhaust system as well as an AFE air intake. All these make the 435i extremely loud, a fact that can be also seen in the video.

There are also the wider black wheels wrapped in Pirelli P Zero rubbers and a couple of other fine tweaks here and there, which complete change the car`s attitude and stance. But you`d better sit tight, push the play button and enjoy the video released by Smoking Tires.

If there is one thing I have learned about Liberty Walk is that while they don’t sell bad tuning kits, their take is a bit of an acquired taste.

With that information in mind, it is time to take a look at what the future holds. As a worthy successor of the 3 Series Coupe, the BMW 4 Series does a great job of delivering decent power while also looking like it. But what Liberty Walk has done seems to take the Bimmer to a whole new level.

Just from these first renders, the Liberty Walk BMW 4 Series looks like it is ready to tear into the tarmac, with the very wide body kit going all around, from the front fender, to the side skirts, massive wheel arches and rear. Of course, some say this might be a tad over the top, but over the years, Liberty Walk proved they had what it takes to be a good aftermarket specialist.
