You're an Alpina guy, you already know what this will look like.

I'm talking about the challenges of differentiating the 145k version of a 110k suv from the 110 version. Land Rover somewhat pulls it off but not really, Benz does not, Bentley did it at the 200k+ price point (3x the Q7)

I think Alpina fans will like it. I know I'll like it, personally. But if someone loves the M treatment and isn't really an Alpina guy this won't be too tempting unless you want to be 1 of 1 driving it in a 250 mile radius.

Nevertheless it's nice to have both options and I like that BMW is going this route. Offer M visual version of some vehicles and an Alpina version, as well, as an alternative. I'd rather buy this than an MX7
