Regarding the Alpina, I'm not an owner but my personal opinion is that performance wise, it a nice happy medium between the 650 and the M6. Most M6 drivers state that can't even get their power to the ground without spinning out. On another note, my personal opinion regarding the looks of the B6 is that it appears as if someone took a non M sport model and tacked on a body kit (which is essentially what they did). I also don't care for the large 'ALPINA' badging on the back of the car.

I completely agree on the Alpina body kit... the front is awful. Why they choose a non-m sport bumper and tacked on a lip with massive ALPINA across it looks completely out of place. The rear bumper I don't mind actually. The wheels have never been for me, I get it's their 'thing' but I prefer a more aggressive design.
It is sooooo easy to get power out of the n63tu, the engine is clearly detuned to create a gap between the m6. With about $5-6k in mods you can turn the n63tu into a 600+ hp car. With draggy a few of us are also starting to hit high 10s which is insane for a big heavy car like the 650.
