Oddly enough I had heard of Alpina but didn’t know what or who they were. Now I know and this was a good episode. Love the changes you made. Simple but effective to chance the way this show works.

What a great story. I love Alpina models. I’m hoping for a B6 grand coupe in my immediate future. So beautiful and as I understand a 200 mph top speed.
When I worked at BMW as a detailer a few years back we once got a B7 into the shop for a "full spa" Cleaning. The boys were playing around with the features on the car as we cleaned the interior and THE SOUND OF MUSIC was in the vehicle to play from the built in entertainment system. We straight up watched half the movie on the center screen as well as the two in the back while we cleaned the vehicle. I was in awe of the quality (not of the movie) but of the B7 overall. Unbelievable tbh.
