Visiting AC-Schnitzer in Germany
Hi everyone,
I'm planning a trip in October or November to go visit AC Schnitzer in Germany. Main reason of going is to go and buy a DFC suspension for the M5.. Much cheaper getting it there than in the US. And also just want to go and drive around on the Autobahns. So I was wondering if anyone can give me some tips? Firstly, I've got no clue where in Germany they are, so I have to figure out which airport to fly to, and where to stay, etc. Their website isn't much help either on telling you where they are... Also, I've got to call and set up and appointment with them I guess to get the stuff.. anyone have a contact I could call? Also, where can I rent a descent car to drive around? I've heard Europecar has some nice cars.... Furthermore, if anyone else is interested in coming with me, we can share the costs of car rental and accomadations
Thanks!
Terence

AC Schnitzer are near Cologne (Koln as it is called locally). Frankfurt is probably the best international airport.

It's close enough to Nurburgring for some fun!

AC Scnitzer are located in Aachen and you'll get there in a couple of hours from Frankfurt. You can rent really fun cars in Germany such as Ferraris if you are willing to pay for it.

You'll get a BMW 7 series or a MB S-klasse for a decent prize.

Contact Enrico Fois, enrico.fois@ac-schnitzer.de, or Carlo Brouwers, carlo.brouwers@ac-schnitzer.de. They'll help you set up a meeting.

Don't forget to goto Nürburgring with your rental car!

BTW, tested the DFC at Nürburgring this weekend, it as absolutely fantastic.

Cheers,
/Johan
