Alpina E7? Alpina B7? Not sure...
 

Hey guys,
Last weekend, I was in the shoppers parking lot in Morgans Grant in Kanata. Some guy parked in a real fancy looking BMW, I thought it was an M, and I just have a real soft spot for anything BMW. I ran over to see it! It had huge rims and looked bigger then normal. On the back it had Alpina on the left, and E7 or B7 on the right. Never heard of this, or even seen it before! Google Didn't turn up much either. Anyone know anything about these?

I also saw a very new looking M5 in the Centrum. It was a gray silver color, driven by an older gentleman.

Looks just like it. I could have sworn it was an E though! I'd hate to see the price on these things...

They start at $120kUSD...

Drove one of those, awesome inside

I was dead set on getting the first gen one of these, until I saw that they sell for upwards of 40K 6 years old with high miles. :( LOVE THEM!

There is one in the showroom at Budd's when I was there last week. Gorgeous.

are they like 5/7 series on steroids ?

I'm also in Kanata Area ... I see this car often and a real head turner... A B7 for sure!!
