reginos:
There is also a B5 Alpina (4.4lt bi-turbo 507PS)
0-100 4.7
Vmax 307km/h
Fuel 10.8 lt/100km
Price around GBP 70.000 in the UK
That's a practical, everyday superfast car with stealth qualities
I get 15% rebate on a new 550i from my local dealer. Do I get the same rebate for an Alpina BMW ? I highly doubt it. Another thing: lease offers. BMW has some pretty incredible lease offers for their models, Alpina doesn't.
Of course the Alpina is stealth but when it comes to money, I'd go for the 550i.
Unless of course Alpina offers the same financial advantages BMW does.
