WOW! A real Alpina!!! Vince is gonna be jealous! Congrats Alex, it's gonna be awesome!
sounds great :thumb: . I thought alpina always emphasized the switchtronic on their cars. Never really heard much about manual tranny, but I'm sure it will be a blast to drive. Congrats!:)
Yes! Alex will no longer be a pansy! Congrats! :lmao: :thumb: :lmao: :thumb: :lmao: :thumb:
Go Alex Go! Go Alex Go! :bigpimp:

Hip Hip Hooray! Hip Hip Hooray! :thumb:

Congratulations Alex! :D Alex buddy sent me the good news earlier today. And I am still tingling with joy for him. :)

Not jealous at all. I am in fact overjoyed for Alex. I have a feeling that he will go for a B3 after he test-drove one last year. Since then, he has been raving how he missed the feeling of driving the B3, how pple on the streets were giving him the thumbs-up and how babes were waving at him... :D

Btw Mora Metallic is a groovy colour. Yeah Baby! :D

Check out Alex's homepage. This was the B3 he tested.

Thanks @everyone. I'm sure it will be a blast to drive.

BTW, for those who are not familiar with Mora metallic here are two pics. (The Alpina pic is from Vince :thumb: )

Hopefully Vince won't track you down and steal your car :eeps:
Hey! I am not that kind of a person! :mad:

But I will bring along my pillow and jammies...I have heard that Ecru leather is very very comfy. :D

I should have said: "Vince will make him an offer he can't refuse" :p

Why is the delay from start of production to receiving the car so great? Does the car get produced by BMW and then have to sit around for a few months until Alpina has a slot available to modify it? Does BMW just deliver a body shell to Alpina-- how much assembly does BMW do before Alpina gets it? If BMW actually produces a functioning car in June- would you be able to drive until Alpina modifies it to turn it into a B3?
