Alpina did it. They did it! They found the way to make an otherwise stunning 6 gran coupe design, AVERAGE!!!

dantm3 · 03-15-2015, 04:03 PM

I love the alpina cars, but those wheels do not do it for me.. Still a great concept power wise

Coops90 · 03-15-2015, 04:04 PM

Don't know why BMW don't offer any greens. Every car looks good in a nice green.

matowi · 03-15-2015, 04:08 PM

Very nice! Thanks for posting.

Classy cars without doubts. And the green... Kind of looks ok on the 4series (I'd skip the golden stripes though).

There is a great review of this D4 on yt... They say it's a beast

What is going on with the ride height? They somehow manages to make the B5 less aggressive than a normal 5 series. Just look at the rear track.

Teutonic · 03-15-2015, 04:22 PM

If they would bring the b3 in Canada, I would order it yesterday.
Just to get a different and rich color and a more carefully build automobile.

PaulBailey@ltbmw · 03-15-2015, 04:33 PM

Wish we could get more of these in the states

Deluxx3 · 03-15-2015, 04:43 PM

I dig that green!

Mr.SugarSkulls · 03-15-2015, 04:49 PM

LOVING the new 6 headlights!!

It takes time. Trust me, I absolutely despised the wheels for years. Eventually, it makes sense. One of my must haves on the bucket list. I can not express how much I love Alpina's.
My M was able to take a few selfies with a B7 recently...

I like how they look upper class, with so many BMW's on the road nowadays, they look too normal in all honesty, besides the M series of course, the craftsmanship seems top notch, and that XD3 is looking nice with the LCI updates.

Shroom · 03-15-2015, 08:35 PM

I'm digging on those seats with the green inserts! Love to have those!

Needbmwpartzz · 03-15-2015, 08:52 PM

Love the green and love the alpina rims....

EzequielR · 03-15-2015, 09:35 PM

Dayum, that B5 with a drop would be amazing!

e92proper · 03-15-2015, 09:53 PM

Awesome pics of Alpina cars I would never buy.

TunedM2C · 03-15-2015, 09:59 PM

Yes change is hard but sometimes you have to break habit and move on. Case in point, these awful rims. Time to retire them IMO.

Yeap, the only thing I can focus on are the awful rims. They divert my attention from how boring the rest of the car looks.

I would love to own the D3 if that's available here.
alpina are so stubborn with those damn wheels
