Default Trip to Europe

So I just got back from 16 days in Europe where I saw scores of Ferraris, Bentleys, even Aston Martins - mostly in Monaco - and exactly two Alpinas. One in Monaco and one in Switzerland, not counting the dealership in Stuttgart.

We've got some rare metal here, friends!

Most Alpinas here are in disguise ;-)

Even then are you sure they were Alpinas? There are always those that float around with just the pin striping and badges. At the same time (as horke eluded to) there are also those that have that stuff removed to make them more of a sleeper. I personally wouldn't do this, but that's just me

True, its hard to know for sure. But given their locations I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt.
