For those who crave such a vehicle, Alpina does things right :thumbsup:

On balance, I do like it. Not a fan of the side stripes (easily solved) but love the turbines :thumbsup:

A fan of 4X4s and Alpinas - so this should be good ... but

Fail

wheels are too delicate for a 4x4 :thumbsdown:

From the beginning, BMW X's have been designed as over the road only vehicles, so those wheels are good within those limits IMO.

I believe the most recent code for Alpinablau is 246, but not sure if this yet a new variation of it (they've had a few over the last 20 years or so)
 
Love this...

"For comparison, the 555-hp X5M runs the same sprint in 4.7 seconds, and in the XD3 BiTurbo you still get 34.5 US miles per gallon."
