2007 BMW AC Schnitzer GP3.10 Concept ...

Liquified Petroleum Gas is a sensible alternative to normal petrol fuel, both economically and ecologically, and - after corresponding conversion - can be burned in almost any petrol engine. Per liter, LPG is not only cheaper than petrol but produces around 15 percent less CO2 from the exhaust. With over 2700 filling stations in Germany alone, fuel supplies are guaranteed everywhere, and the 80 liter gas tank fits on board with the original 60 liter petrol tank. So you can switch between fuels at any time. In any case, acceleration is more than just acceptable. The sprint to 60 mph takes 4.3 seconds, and the 124 mph mark is passed after just 13.9 seconds. Only at 200 mph does the pressure on your back begin to ease. It's nimble enough to show the rear lights to many powerful sports cars. Especially when a racing suspension from Aachen provides incredible handling qualities. And to match the power of the acceleration, there's the brakes on the AC Schnitzer GP3.10 Gas Powered: at the front, 8-pot fixed caliper brakes with perforated and vented discs size 374 x 36 mm, at the rear a 4-pot brake system with 350 x 24 mm discs.
