In my eyes there's really almost nothing to like about there cars. And they prove my personal theroy that no company tunes better than the own tuning division when it comes to looks.
Give me an M anyday!
Thank you for that Hussein, I'm totally in agreement with you on this one.

I really don't find anything special or jaw-dropping about this car at all. But for me it's not really what Alpina did to the 6er, it's what BMW did to it with the facelift. Excluding the re-designed rear lights (the internals, the overall shape is the same) I really don't like what BMW did with the 6er. The front lights look weird now coz of what they did with the eyebrow section, the front mouth is dead boring (looks like they got it straight off the 3er), and the rear lower lights are way too big (remind me of the same design feature on the Q7). So I can't really blame Alpina here since I have more an issue with BMW.

As for taking the M6 over this Alpina.. ummm... that's a tough one coz I really am not impressed by how either of them look.

I have to say though, the interior of this Alpina is absolutely GORGEOUS!!
