BMW Performance 1-series brochure leaked

BMW is set to expand its aftermarket accessories line to include the new 1-series range, and a new brochure that’s leaked onto the web details all the goodies we can look forward to (although it’s in German). Simply named ‘BMW Performance,’ the accessories line was initially offered for the 3-series and Z4 lines and has proven very popular since its launch back in September.

As the brochure reveals, the new performance line follows the design of last year’s tii concept car and includes plenty of carbon-fiber, race-style alloy wheels and a new bodykit. Some specific features include carbon-fiber mirrors, engine dress-up kits, a bootlid spoiler, plus uprated brakes and suspension pieces.

One of the more interesting mods is the new shift kit, which is said to reduce shift lever travel by up to 25% and, thus, improve shift times. The engine also receives plenty of performance upgrades including things like high-flow air filters and exhaust mods, but we’ll have to wait until BMW releases details in English to get the new performance numbers. Until then, head over to 1addicts to check out the brochure. Also, below is a gallery of the original tii concept which you’ll notice is almost identical to the BMW Performance version.
