Does anyone know maintenance costs for the M760 vs the B7? Is the V12 or V8 more reliable? Is the Alpina inherently more expensive to repair? And which one would have cheaper insurance costs (my first instinct is V12 and higher MSRP would mean M760 is more expensive to insure...or are Alpinas considerd in a different class)?

Thanks to any advice in advance!
You wouldn't want to take either car to the dealership for service. Until you can find a reputable independent mechanic shop that specializes in imports, I would stay away from both.

If you've already got a shop in mind, call them up and ask these same questions as they would give you more reliable information than these forums.
