Anybody taken delivery of an Alpina B7 in the U.S.?

Does anybody even have a production date estimate?

My CA doesn't even know what the allocation for North America will be.

3m...the guys at premier took too long and i care more to have protection if it peels or discolors i'll deal with it then. i had 3m on my other cars and if you take care of it it will not have any problems. it is also backed with 2 year warranty. if it has no cuts or scratches in 2 years there's no point in putting one in the first place.

Hi ruey220,

Can you please post the interior pictures of your car ?
What kind of wood trim do you choose for your interior ?
from the e-mail I got from my salesperson,
the options for Alpina B7 only list 4 wood trim which are,
1. Alpina's Myrtle
2. Alpina's Piano Black
3. Ashgrain
4. Fineline Matte
(for some strange reason, they do not list the fineline HIGH GLOSS and only fineline MATTE on that options list...)

can we choose other wood trim beside the 4 above ?
Because
Personally, I think the Individual Dark Red Sycamore Wood Trim is better than the Alpina Myrtle one...
also even the Individual Piano Black is better compare to Alpina's Piano Black
since the Individual version have that Piano string insert while the Alpina's version of Piano Black do not have that string insert.
So do they allow you to have an individual wood trim instead of the 4 above ?

and how many Leather Interior color choices do BMW USA offer for Alpina B7 ?
Can you choose Individual Leather Interior color scheme for Alpina B7 ?

Hi pebbrb05,
Thank You for the PDF files that you scan.
I really appreciate it.

so which exterior and interior color do you order ?

and for the interior, which wood trim do you order ?

Pebbrb05,
If you have time, can you please kindly post the picture of your car exterior and interior here ?

I really hope someone had order their car with
Black Nappa Leather and Alpina Myrtle Wood Trim,
and if someone have that combo, please post a picture here, because I really want to see whether they will match or not.

hmm,
based on this document,
It seemed that none of the Individual Leather and Individual Wood Trim is available for Alpina B7 in US market.

Specs are: SWB with Ceramic Controls, Smartphone Integration, Piano Black trim, Color (Black Sapphire Metallic), Upholstery (Nappa Leather in Saddle Brown and Black), Active Cruise Control and Packages (Rear Only Camera, Driver Assistance, and Rear Entertainment). Lost the camera battle. Performance Center delivery.

No pictures available as the car is not scheduled to be delivered until mid to late July. It was turned over to shipping around 1 June.
