1. Riding in the back of that thing would be punishment enough for most non-felonies.
2. Those wheels are played.

Interesting piece of marketing.
In Germany the T?V (authorities) are VEEEEEERY strict on mods, with everything having to be formally tested and approved, before being added to the car's paper work... and at that stage you can drive it on the street legally. Lots of people keep away from mods because of the risk of your mod being rejected by the T?V. So by making a "Police friendly" modded car and writing "Tune it! Safe!" on the side, its a good way of giving potential BMW modders the confidence to go ahead and mod their car with ACS parts. (Well that's how I interpret this at least!)
