You're right, I get it, but I still want to know those number & I just think Alpina could increase their sales volume exponentially by giving buyers a choice between the traditional Alpina front end vs. changing up the front end. I just looked up the attached Car & Driver review & test data. The B7 according to them pulls .97 g's!!! WOW!! Sounds to me they hit the nail on the head that the B7 is a bad ass luxury car that is one heck of a sports sedan as well. 0-60 comes in just 3.4 SECONDS. HOLY CRAP!!! 1/4 mile 11.6 @ 122 mph! 320 horse power vs. 600. The 2016 750i xDrive M Sport pulled .88 g's & 4.3 seconds 0-60, 1/4 mile 12.7 @ 111.9 mph not even close to the B7 on both accounts! I just get the feeling he's saying things just to be different & nit picky. Because it looks like he's just way off on his review. Granted the B7 as tested price was $157,445 vs. $127,545, but what a difference. If I had that kind of money I'd definitely buy the Alpina & simply change out the front end.
