Jo Benevelli – Schnitzer BMW 320 Turbo Gr5 Previews

DRM Modding Team member and 3D artist Jo Benevelli shared some new exciting preview renders showing us the Schnitzer BMW 320 Turbo Gr5 model he is working on. It is not yet confirmed if this model will appear in the DRM Revival mod or any other modding project, but we are sure many Group 5 fans out there would love to see this car in-game.

In 1979, AC Schnitzer introduced the low line 430 hp BMW 320i Turbo Schnitzer E21 Group 5 aiming to counter the DRM dominance of the Zakspeed Ford Capri Turbo.

The car driven by Manfred Winkelhock made its debut at the Belgian Zolder track during a practice session of the Deutsche Rennsport Meisterschaft Division 2.Because of setup problems Team Schnitzer decided to use the older 320 for the Zolder ADAC-Westfalen-Pokal-Rennen race. One round later at the German Hockenheim track, the new Schnitzer 320 Turbo Aeroheck did its maiden race and finished in 5th place.
