Of all the Banglemobiles, this is one of the better looking ones. Word is, it will be coming Stateside in extremely limited #s.

Yes, the car is indeed heading North America. As a matter of fact, I was at the B7's North American lauch at Canadian International Auto Show
I managed to snap a few pictures during the unveiling. Interestingly the president of Alpina was in the show too. :)

My thoughts as well, but the "new" back is a lot less ugly. Overall, it looks good, although I like the blue a lot better.:thumb:

Good observation... Except it's an luxury sedan, not GT Car :thumb:
Either way I agree... however it would take away the uniqueness on some of the ///M Cars. Such as M5, M6, M3...
