Nice smart car. It'll be £50k in 'acceptable' Alpina spec. They have some of the finest hand stitched leathers and embroided logos, at £3.5k

Then you can also opt to leather up your dash and headlining and some more ....

never been a fan of alpina wheels
what's that stripe down the side all about?

There's an alpina on the forum here somewhere that looks lovely. The thing that bugs me most about Alpina's is the alpina thing down the front - I think it just looks dated these days, a bit eighties. Loved the Alpina Z4 and might get one one day as I like individual cars. Maybe its different with Alpina but my experience with A C Shnitzer put me off going to far from stock for a long time.

Would be a seriously fast car but the bodykit is Crud (IMO)

Why do they have to use a standard SE front bumper and then stick their bit on the bottom. Surely for the sort of money they charge they could come up with a proper mean-looking one-piece unit??????

The Start package will be just over £40K (Saloon w/leather) according to Sytners with the first UK cars being available about January next year
As you quote peppernick an acceptable spec Alpina would probably be nearer the £50K price tag but at £40K with all that extra performance it might make some people consider paying the extra over a 335i (Although I doubt you would be able to negotiate any discount)
