This would fit with the 2014 lineup and what I have seen of the 2015 - the Alpina has a bit less horsepower but a bit more torque at a lower RPM. If that is the thinking and it prevails into the 2016 models, I wonder what kind of bhp the M6 will have and with the competition package. Does anybody know what the bhp rating is for the non-CP 2016 M6?

Dinan measurement shows the stock M6 generates 618 HP, 576 lb-ft torque.

They also measured 540 HP, 574 lb-ft torque for Alpina B6 (2015 model)

So basically performance wise, B6 is somewhere between 6 er and M6
