B) On behalf of every mom driver in America, that’s a pretty offensive generality. |

If it gets classic Alpine spiked wheels, and they're 21/22 inch...this could set a record for time taken to clean the wheels

I honestly can't think of a more pointless car

Struggling to understand the reasoning behind this car?

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. |

Merc GL/ GLS had an AMG version from the beginning. There is enough room for a rival from Alpina. Different philosophy, but close in power output

they could have taken it from the 7series but i doubt they would sell enough to make it worthwhile.
please elaborate.

X7 Alpina would be one sweet ride, likely 150 k though. If you build it the will come.

Check out the old Motortrend article. Though I suppose since M is going AWD and Auto these days on the big cars it's less obvious on the surfaxe |

I love my B7 and my guess is the XB7 will be amazing. The X7 already drives great and BMW needs an answer to the GLS63.
