This is being unloaded as I'm walking the lot! My CA says no markup if anyone wants it.
Honestly the color is really nicer than I was expecting. The x7 wears it well.

The wheels look like those combs you use to fix radiator fins. Yuckkk!

And, blue calipers with green? Umm, no.

I really want those wheels to use as my winters, but the dealer quoted me almost $7K!

For that price there's a ton of options so I passed.

Are you sure? Blue and Green are the Alpina colors.

Some people just can't help but share their negative opinions nobody asked for.

True, those wheels are hideous. Looks like something a real old Saab would come with back before Saab went belly up.

that is damn funny. I agree the 23" wheel option is a must.

It was about $1000 per wheel plus $500 per tire (Pirelli Scorpion Winter) is where I landed for my winter setup with these wheels. Also needed to get stems and sensors and center caps. Plus installation. So pretty close… I did drive down to Portland to grab everything where they don’t have sales tax so saved about $700 that way

Yeah also considered green as option. But went with blue. (The only real colors for alpinas &#128521. But Green looks awesome.

I have the same winter wheels and in black they look OK.

Believe it or not, but this design is the 100% genuine Alpina. That's the trademark design.

Blue and green are a very good color for Alpine. It carries it well

It not negative, it's an opinion. I think its ugly, you think its not. Agree to disagree. Lol. Life goes on. Still a great vehicle.

And, I have ugly 19" grey winter wheels on mine.

I get so excited when I see new vehicles delivered because it’s such a monumental experience, especially when you get a top-shelf vehicle. It’s as close to Christmas as we adults get.
