thats probably more down to the car being filthy & the mirrors being clean in the flesh with the windows & trim being black they just seam to fit

as alpina are supplied by BMW they are contractually obliged to not make a car more powerful that an M but they make up for that by making them more drivable & more refined

Its a cool car all right. Its a bloody quick car too. I was in it with blacky a few months back i was watching his tv in the car. I thought we were doing about 70 mph but blacky said look at the clock and we were doing 140. The car was just cruising along. I love my cossie but i would rather have blackys bmw.
