I do hope BMW bring the Alpina AWD sooner too...

I also think that the current B7 Engine 500hp output could be push even higher because the X6M already have 555hp and the next M5 suppose to have even higher power.

From a glance, it looks like the Alpina B7 and upcoming
M5 have the same basic engine block. (not sure about this, please correct me if I am wrong)...

I think the AWD Alpina B7 is a better platform
for tuning the engine output higher because
the AWD system will be able to safely deploy those
power compare to the rwd B7.
(just like Panamera Turbo with AWD).

I think 600hp should be a perfect combination for AWD in
Alpina B7.

I think that the only reason why Alpina B7 do NOT have higher horsepower is
BMW policy so the B7 do NOT eclipse the 760Li V12 power...

I wonder if someday Alpina would produce B12 again... (like S65 AMG)
