Default BMW announces super 7-Series


BMW and supertuner-partner ALPINA have created a high-performance model for M-starved 7-Series customers - the BMW ALPINA B7.

The heart of the 2006 BMW ALPINA B7 is a supercharged version of BMW's 4.4-liter V8, delivering 500 hp through a 6-speed automatic transmission. The 500 hp V8 makes 516 ft-lb of torque at 4,250 rpm, hustling the big sedan from 0-60 mph in 4.8 seconds.

To go along with the extra power, ALPINA upgrades the rest of the 7-Series with the B7 aero kit, a sport-tuned suspension with Active Roll Stabilization, and 21-inch ALPINA wheels.

The BMW ALPINA B7 will be released in July, but only 200 B7s are coming to the U.S. in 2006.

"Super 7 Series" I'd prefer the regular 7-series this car looks too much like the 5-series and it's price will probibly be 80K+. And drive that idrive into the paper shreader.

That really is an ugly rear end. Its unbalanced and it looks like BMW went cheap on some of the design aspects of the car.
