That being said, it's gonna be a $140k+ SUV... and that for me will require a CAT scan to make sure I'm ok... I get spending that cash on an exotic but on MY wife's grocery getter that she is probably gonna curb rash and bumper car through the local Saks parking lot... I think not...

This is so problematic. You must be such an amazing person to chat with. |

Sorry I offended, it was actually supposed to be more self/family deprecating and humorous based on my real world experiences. I fixed to to say what I was actually thinking at the moment vs what my fingers typed... it was late and I was tired, obviously didn't proof read correctly...
And before you get even more triggered, my wife is a wonderful driver 90% of the time. Occasionally however she gets in a rush, flustered and careless when in tight spots and makes mistakes. Hell even I make mistakes.
My point was, as much as I love Alpina this is a 600 hp $140k+ SUV with 21" or 22" multi spoke wheels and and will likely get dinged up being used as a daily. I'd rather have an exotic or semi exotic toy that gets treated correctly by both myself and my wife rather than spend it on a big fast SUV, but to each their own.
