AMAZING Sighting!!
 

You guys won't believe what i ran into today when i drove into my work parking lot. Parking where i always do i look and see an e34. i get closer and its an Alpina B10!!!!!!! UN-F@#$in real guy had BC plates on it and said he had bought it about 2 weeks ago and said it was the only one in N america to the best of his knowledge!!! Said he is a local member in Canada for bmw and goes on some drives as well. i'm really hoping to run into this guy again. he said the car is just amazing to drive and it looks so sleek and clean with just a hint at the monster under the hood!!! :rock
i got some lame little pics on my camera phone and i'm kicking myself in the ass for not grabbing the digital on my way out the door today

just some info for those of you (should be no one here) that are unfamiliar with the alpina name or this particular model.

360hp stock and easily "chipped" to 440!!
the one i saw was a charcoal blueish color

dammm..... now thats a sighting. So hes from BC eh? i should drive over sometime try to find him. Did you tell him about UB?

no he seemed like he was kinda in a rush, otherwise i would have

oh well, thats still sick man. I would love to see an Alpina. Ive seen Brabus SL's and a Lorinser's but never an Alpina.

Wait wait, take another hit and holder longer this time, maybe he'll trip a little more and tell you that it can fly.

damn. that's awesome! i thought the only Alipina in NA was the Roadster V8.

:dunno

He is from BC then, as in Brittish Columbia, right? Did he also say where in BC he is from, like Vancouver, or Vancouver Island (Victoria)? Cause if he is from Victoria i could head down to the BMW club and get some good pictures!!

You told him about ub, right? :naughty

komodo i'm ashamed of you... read the whole thread!!! i already answered this. and no it wasn't victoria he said he was from vancouver

lol nice... Alpina sell individual parts? like an exhaust maybe...

I just read a bunch on the Alpina BMW's, all I have to say is.......... WOW! what a cool f***in car. The Alpina B7 really caught my eye, 500bhp. HOLLA SHEET!!!!!!!

Check out this bad boy - an "Alpy" besides

i've seen some brabus's and lorinsers around here. the occasional bimmer with dinan badging but never anything that cool
