I have just passed by BMW Niederlassung in Dortmund (D) to rent a car by the local Sixt office while I see this beauty. I could not resist by taking some photos and share them with you enthusiasts.

The total price for it, quite well loaded, is about EUR 108.000.

Alpina is yummy-yummy.
But please, why do they use the same design on the wheels as they did fifteen years ago

Yep I would do the same if would not have an MSport. I would install Alpina front bumper and side skirt immediately. Much more exclusive than MSport.

EUR 108,000 sounds a bit expensive, any spec of the car? 550 twin turbo?

No special wood trims (like before), if they'd left the SAT steering wheel with paddles it would have been much better, no high gloss shadowline... A std. M-Sport would look much better. And why are they still using the old 4.4l engine? Ok, I think I could have lived with it anyways 0-100km/h in 4.6s isn't bad at all.
