2012 Kelleners Sport BMW M5 KS5-S

2012 Kelleners Sport BMW M5 KS5-S. With 660 hp and max. torque of 790 Newton meters, the BMW M5 converted by Kelleners Sport can reach a max. speed in excess of 330 km / h. The additional power is particularly noticeable at the back thanks to the Kelleners Sport valve-controlled stainless-steel rear silencers with four 90 mm diameter tailpipes. The KS5-S lettering is also a mild indication of the additional 100 hp over the standard model. The restrained rear spoiler, the mirror caps and rear diffuser insert have been given a carbon coating to underscore the car’s sporting personality. Also carbon coated, the side mouldings and the front-spoiler lip round off the Kelleners Sport Aerodynamic Kit for the current BMW M5.

The Kelleners Sport ‘Hamburg’ wheels have been modified especially for the BMW M5 and come in dimensions 9×20″ for the front and 10×20″ for the rear. The wheels are available in three different finishes – graphite silver, platinum silver polished and matt black.






The Kelleners Sport Team has also made extensive changes to the interior of the BMW M5. Thus, the front and back seats, as well as the dashboard and the door panels, are covered in leather with grey contrast stitching for an elegant, sporting ambience. The front head restraints are embossed with the Kelleners Sport logo and the interior mouldings carbon coated. The Kelleners Sport steering wheel with its smooth / perforated leather combination sits perfectly in the drivers’ hands while black velour floor mats and a set of Kelleners Sport aluminium pedals round off the extensive interior modifications.

2013 BMW M6 Coupe and Convertible

2013 BMW M6 Coupe and Convertible. Wide air intakes, stunningly contoured headlight units and large, smooth surfaces shape the front end of the new BMW M6 Coupe and the new BMW M6 Convertible. Another eye-catching element of the car’s nose is its newly designed M kidney grille, which bears an “M6″ badge. The grille’s black, paired kidney grille slats take their cues from the characteristic double-spoke design of the M light-alloy wheels. The 30-millimetre increase in track width over the two cars’ respective 6-Series stablemates is complemented by powerfully flared front wheel arches, which sit flush with the wheels. This extra width offers a clear nod to the optimised roadholding of these high-performance sports cars. The three-dimensional shaping of their air intakes and race-inspired flaps designed to optimise airflow to the outer air intakes likewise underline the cars’ forward-surging, dynamic character. 

The motor sport technology in the new BMW M6 Coupe and BMW M6 Convertible paves the way for imposing performance on the race track, but also treats the driver to a captivating driving experience on everyday journeys from A to B. The BMW M6 Coupe sprints from 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) in 4.2 seconds, the BMW M6 Convertible in 4.3 seconds. However, the dynamic character of both models is also defined by their mid-range agility, the precision of their turn-in and traction when accelerating out of corners, their precisely controllable handling under intense lateral forces and their stopping capability. The latest innovation designed to optimise the handling of the new BMW M6 Coupe and the new BMW M6 Convertible in highly dynamic driving situations are the M carbon-ceramic brakes, offered as an option for the first time.















Another attribute unmatched by any rival is the leap forward in efficiency that comes with the new editions of the two high-performance sports cars. The new BMW M6 Coupe records average fuel consumption of 9.9 litres per 100 kilometres (28.5 mpg imp) and CO2 emissions of 232 grams per kilometre in the EU test cycle. The equivalent values for the new BMW M6 Convertible are 10.3 l/100 km (27.4 mpg imp) and 239 g/km. Despite a 10 per cent increase in engine output and a 30 per cent jump in peak torque – to 680 Newton metres (502 lb-ft) – fuel consumption and CO2 emissions have been reduced by over 30 per cent in both cases compared with their respective predecessors.

The new BMW M6 Coupe and the new BMW M6 Convertible are fitted with 19-inch M light-alloy wheels as standard. The forged wheels feature seven double-spokes in a two-tone finish. The optional 20-inch M light-alloy wheels, meanwhile, hint at reduced weight with their five intricate double spokes and allow a clear line of sight through to the powerful braking system.

2012 Alpha-N BMW M3

2012 Alpha-N BMW M3. Performance-oriented drivers are in safe hands with the specialists of Alpha-N, whose factory halls are located in Bad Neuenahr-Ahrweiler – a stone-throw from the legendary Nürburgring-Nordschleife. A high-performance sporting device emerged on the basis of the M3 which is not only suitable for the racing pitch alone but can also be comfortably and thankfully moved around in daily routine. We all agree on the engine capacity: No thud will ever be this sufficient. Yet, it was sufficient to boost performance capacity by approximately 30 Horse Power during reconstruction, which was generated through the classical optimization of the engine software, the construction of a carbon air-box system for the improved respiration of the eight-cylinder driving gear and a titanic sports exhaust system from the specialists of Akrapovic. In summary, this produced a capacity of approximately 450 Horse Power.




To ensure that this power can be translated into propulsion without any meaningful loss of driving force particularly during the hard conditions of race-circuit application, a high-end competition chassis frame from KW joined the bodywork with individual alignment, combined with an ultra-light set of OZ Superforgiata rims, all in the format 10×19 inches with the Michelin Pilot Sport Cup tires in 265/35R19. The Alpha-N boys endowed the bodywork with a carbon front spoiler in the racing version with brake ventilation shaft, a carbon rear diffuser as well as an impressive carbon rear wing soaring above the rear cover all for an optimized aerodynamic as well as of course, a non-insignificant amount of weight-saving. The last visible modification on M3 is a set of exclusive Recaro Pro Racer Hans seats which ensure a perfect sitting position for the driver and the passenger.

In the next stage, the owner of this routinely applicable racing instrument is planning to install a roll cage, a set of carbon doors, a carbon engine hood and a carbon rear cover and a MAC fully carbonated air-box system.
