My Ride: 2005 545i Sport Package Limo Tinted, Heads up display, Fully Loaded Minus Cold Weather Package and Rear window Sunshades.
I've seen a few Aplina's around here still looking for that B5! I'm starting to think their all in europe =(
Funny thing is I see lambo's or ferrari's all the time, and the second I see something like an Aplina I had to take a picture.
And in case you guys don't know what an Alpina is... It will take a stock M5/M6 owner a run for his money.
Even despite the Alpina B7's curb weight of 4703 pounds! It's 11.5 PSI supercharged engine propels this car with some serious force.
BMW Alpina B7
Power/torque 500 hp/516 lb-ft
0-60 mph 4.5 sec
0-100 mph 10.4 sec
Quarter mile 12.8 sec @ 110.9 mph
Braking, 60-0 mph 111 ft
It's basically a 7 series on steroids!

My neighbor has a B7. Meow!! The B5's aren't imported to the US unfortunately.
I'm jealous I want to drive a B7! So that must explain it then... The B5 is such an awesome car.
