Why is the Merc more expensive? The seats in that Merc is down right rental, especially next to the Alpina.

Alpina isnt owned by BMW. Replace AMG with Brabus Amazing what tuners can do with engines.

Ree was the right the first time: UNFAIR TEST, or a weird comparison.

It's not like the C250 CDI is at a real disadvantage except that the Alpina D3 is a performance diesel that was tuned for sporty driving. The C250 CDI BlueEfficiency is almost the complete opposite being a stock diesel designed for fuel efficiency first, "performance" second.
