Alpina B3 S Biturbo

Harold Wood · 07-29-2010, 06:27 AM

A new Alpina B3 S Biturbo has just rolled up at the dealership

cstavaru · 07-29-2010, 06:35 AM

Convertible...waste of money and power. But plenty of buyers

I also do not like the fact that the rear of the trunk lid is filled with text (nevermind the front lip

)...they should have just replaced the BMW roundel with an Alpina one and only keep the "B3s" text.

Doesn't Alpina change the BMW logos anymore? they did in the past, didn't they?

Nice ride btw, would trade my E92 in a heartbeat...

It looks like the logo on the steering wheel is alpina's emblem.

Only comes with a slushbox, no MT option

Javier · 07-29-2010, 08:42 AM

not feeling this one

zenmoused · 07-29-2010, 09:03 AM

That trunk looks like a bad photoshop. Really for such a pretty car you'd think they wouldn't put so much lettering on it. Yuck.

MN BMW · 07-29-2010, 09:11 AM

Nice! I always enjoy looking at these cars.

not impressed. was hoping for something more. looks plain cosmetically. good thing power wise won't be.

BMWjames · 07-29-2010, 02:59 PM

wow, can't say I have ever said this before but thats a pretty ugly Alpina...

remmib · 07-29-2010, 03:15 PM

It will take hours to debadge that thing...

Johan@WSTO · 07-29-2010, 03:17 PM

Nice!

MassBimmer · 07-29-2010, 03:31 PM

Wow, what a car, I love it

I agree with all other comments...rear decklid is too busy and the exterior roundels should be Alpina badges

E92-Lighting · 07-29-2010, 03:47 PM

what a beast

wazup773 · 07-29-2010, 03:49 PM

i dont think it looks that good

Edward · 07-29-2010, 03:52 PM

Though I love Alpina, are they deathly afraid of creating a fresh aero component based off the Mtech bumpers? I mean, come on, they've been doing the same front lip for like 4+ generations! Badges are a failure also. Biturbo is unnecessary as is the size of the rest of the badges. Other than that, I'm sure it performs and I'm always a fan of Alpina's stuff. Thanks for posting pics!

KImmanie · 07-29-2010, 04:20 PM

guys are right to much text

Gavin@MMW · 07-29-2010, 06:48 PM

I dont like the front of this car... at all.

The rear is very nice though. and yes, too much text.

Its not like people can red it when you fly by anyway..

catch · 07-30-2010, 12:22 AM

thats a lot of badging!
not a fan at all
