M5 and M6 ,two same engines have 507....now the 4.4 has 507....again u can get more power than that , at least 570....however if thats true the Alpina B7 is still some 100hp short of S65 AMG......WOW...that sucks
Well, at first that thing looks beautiful.

Second, I wouldn't compare it to the S65. Smaller engine, 4 cylinders less. Of course it has less power. But I guess it'll be much sportier than a S65. Compare it to a S63. Both V8 (okay not both naturally aspirated), but nearlly the same hp (you won't feel the 10hp missing) but the Alpian has way more torque! And that counts in heavyweight class.
