Thumbs up TXSTYLE evaluates the Alpina B7!

At least visually that is.
Heavily modified and much rarer than Benz AMG, a BMW 7 series taken to a much higher level..
While getting my car serviced up at Classic, I strolled over to the showroom and low and behold... A white Alpina B7 looking very delicious indeed. One of only 2 they will get (according to salesguy). It had a unique saddle interior that is absolutely gorgeous, accented with some of the nicest wood in a car, 21" wheels, and the piece de reziztaunce... 500hp supercharged engine. $127,000. If u can make it up there, do yourself a favor.Oh by the way... Classic will finally be at their new state of the art facility at Tollway & Spring Creek on March 12. Listen for grand opening details and festivities coming soon...

Thats because the angle of the picture is not very flattering. Saw it in person. 3 weeks later its not there no more (sold)..

But I must say, the look of it really isn't my style though...
