Don't know if you guys have seen this yet or been posted up here elsewhere. I like this a lot, could've put in an LSD though, even just to shut the journo's up. Different animal to the M3, probably more of an AMG rival but it's gonna do good for them. http://www.autocar.co.uk/CarReviews/FirstDrives/Alpina-B3-B3/226375/ - http://www.autocar.co.uk/CarReviews/FirstDrives/Alpina-B3-B3 /226375/ ------------- E39 530d Touring |

Like it...... doesn't seem silly money either, I'm sure 'someone' could supply an LSD for it, in time. -------------

I like it, still doesn't mean I'd buy one though. My hard earned would be going towards an E92 M3.

Aye, it would be an Alpina for me every time! Think I heard that Alpina brought out an LSD as an option on the B5 recently, maybe they'll do the same. |

Looks the nuts but I'd still rather have an M3. ------------- http://smg.photobucket.com/user/silverbeastie/media/Milltek/Sig.jpg.html" rel="nofollow">  2009 E92 M3 - Milltek |

very nice!  based on the M3 to B3 cost ratio, the B3 wins but, the M3 would be tops if money weren't an issue. (dream..dream..on rossi)  |

nice, i think the rarity thing is a good card to play - you'd be surprised at the number of people who say they prefer alpinas to m-cars! ------------- 2007 Ford Mondeo 2.0 TDCI Titanium X Auto 1983 Ford Sierra XR4i 2000 Alpina B10 3.3 #118 1999 BMW 323Ci 1995 BMW 318i SE 1994 Vauxhall Omega 2.0 GLS 1995 Ford Mondeo 1.8 LX 1990 Honda Concerto 1.6 EX 1986 Ford Orion 1.6 GL 1989 Ford Fiesta 1.1 Firefly |

Evo magazine has a good review of it. Does seem like a great car. I doubt
they'll have much trouble selling them. ------------- 1995 e36 3.0 M3 Coupe, Daytona Violet, AP Racing BBK, CCFL Angel Eyes, M3 Spoiler, M-Tec 3 Steering Wheel. 2000 530d Steptronic, Poverty Spec, 18" Alloys. |

It's better looking than the M3. Reading the EVO review of the M3, I'm kinda getting the idea that BMW have made a car more in the image of the E36 M3 than the E46. It seems rather sensible, and so dangerously close to the B3 Biturbo IMO. ------------- Beating around the bush. |
