Alpina B7, MEOW!!! Turns out the owner lives literally 6 blocks away from me and I have never seen him before until today. Super cool guy..BS'd with him while we filled up. Funny part is I wasn't driving the 550, I was in the "Red Dragon" my POS 89 3/4 ton pickup, you can see it in the background. The mismatched drivers door from the junkyard is off a half ton and says, RON'S LODGE, FOWL LAKE, MN...then in small cursive letters above the door handle it says in parenthesis, "Ron" Bwahaha!!! Guy was probably thinking..."Yeah right, this guy has a 550!" Anyway, I invited him to the our next meet. Said he was interested and to stop by his house soon with the 550.
I rarely drive the Red Dragon but decided to today and take my pooch for a ride today. I am so use to filling up the Bimmer and Rover with premium that I accidentally filled the POS with 22 gallons of Premium today!
Dumbass!!

Am I the only one who thought Alpinas had a different badge, as in not the regular roundel?
Of course they put Alpina lettering on the trunk as well so my speculation makes absolutely no sense.
