[Photos] BMW X5 M Gets Serious Upgrades in Abu Dhabi

Folks from the BMW Abu Dhabi dealership gave this BMW X5 M some serious upgrades. They used different aftermarket parts to achieve this look. Overall, it works!

The front bumper is now wearing a 3D Design carbon fiber splitter on the bottom while the same motif continues on the sides with 3D Design side sills and diffuser. The vented hood that helps cool off the twin-turbo 4.4-liter V8 is from Manhart Racing. Up front and on the sides you’ll also notice M Performance parts, like the kidney grilles and the carbon fiber mirror caps. AC Schnitzer’s set of 22″ forged wheels as well as a new exhaust that further accentuates the sound of the S63 engine.

The engine has not been changed for this particular car. The X5 M still has 575 HP and 750 Nm (553 lb-ft) of torque that’s already more than enough for the usual enthusiast. 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) is achieved in 4.2 seconds. Limited top speed is 250 km/h (155 mph).
