It's only been since Janaury 19th this was first posted - you're so impatient !

Me too. Out of curiosity, I wanna see an X5 4.8 Alpina

[acitydweller]

isnt this self leveling inactive error correctable by the dealer you purchased from?

[Arudge]

There is the most useless thread I have seen yet

There is an old joke:
Some might not find it funny, but I do.

One guy asks another: "Do you know how to provoke the interest of an idiot?"
-- No, tell me how?
-- First guy says: "I'll tell you tomorrow"

Same thing here... 80 replies, 5300 views, 2 month passed since it was first posted and people are still interested ...

Still No PICSS!!!

unlike other super tuners like hartge,AC,hamann etc....alpinas approach is much more tame compared to these other guys. interior/exterior is way more subtle not as agressive. other than that they are considered an elite brand for Bmw so no matter what you made a great choice enjoy.

Without wishing to be rude I can only assume you haven't read the thread in its entirety. If you had then you would have seen the significant number of comments from a number of members with E53 knowledge and high post counts.

The considered opinion is there has never been an officially Alpina badged E53

I have gone into more detail than most explaining Alpina connections to the 4.6is and 4.8is models, however, I belive the car concerned , (if it exists at all), is likley to be a misdescribed vehicle & possibly with some aftermarket bits added.

I am happy to be proven wrong and share in the delight of the new owner but there have been no pics and no verification to even suggest the a car of any sorts exists - first post being made over 3 mths ago.

One contributor has infered that anyone intersted in this thread is an idiot.

I can get a marker pen and write Alpina on my car but it wont make it an Alpina !
