Most in-depth review I've seen of the XB7 to date. Thanks for posting it.

I like Moto-man’s reviews. He’s to the point and does his research. He doesnt seem to be found of the colors but none the less loves the XB7. Now I need to get my hands on those wheels.

Whew...ordered 4 in Alpina Blue after debating color for a month with the different dealers on why they should order Alpina colors

Not a bad review as far as motoman is concerned...sometimes it's bit too technical but this one was right on the money

I also ordered an XB7 in ALPINA Blue today. I've been debating waiting for ALPINA Green to be available in April but my wife didn't want a green SUV so ALPINA Blue it is.

You and me both. That green on a vehicle this big will be a show stopper. That said, it’s gonna be ALOT of green and you must like green more than blue or it’s gonna get old after a few months. I am personally a black or blue type of owner in this size of vehicle.

Gorgeous color. Ametrin and Alpina go well together. Just wish they didn't make the wheels a darker gray shade from the factory, contrasts too much with the chrome.
