Gorgeous! The interior looks so much better than stock!

Don't understand the appeal of Alpina from a cosmetic standpoint.
Looks like a 7 series. But I guess if you are looking for a way to make a f30 look old, this is the way to do it.

maybe if the wheels were more aggressive but I agree it looks like a 7 series.

Cosmetically, it's like they're selling you a smaller B7.... I don't get it...
I like it tho, don't get me wrong. I just don't see the purpose. |

The purpose is to offer an attractive price point for that level of performance and luxury. The B7 is much more expensive, and the BMW 7 series has significantly less performance at the Alpina D3 price point. And not everyone wants to drive a boat of a car in order to have some luxury

If there was a leather dash like the M3/M4, the B3/D3 would be the ideal car if you wanted full luxury in a 3er with added performance that isn't a M car.

So Mr McAney might be a Financial Advisor in the UK who visits wealthy retired clientele who trust him with their portfolios, they don't want him turning up in some brash M3. |

Agreed. It looks nice sure but I think it belongs in the "boat/limo" that is the 7 series.
