Default Spotted: B7

Saw an Alpina B7 on the upper levels highway in North Vancouver on Friday night around 5pm. Unfortunately, I believe the car was being confiscated. A couple of cop cars were there and a tow truck. I couldn't see any damage to the car, so I'd guess he was speeding excessively and got caught. BC's speeding laws are a bitch

I've met a few new B7 owners around here. They didn't seem like "Alpina enthusiasts" if you know what I mean.

That's unfortunate, but not surprising. It always seems like people who are enthusiasts will buy the older cars and not the newer ones.

Thats common. I was watching the news a while back and the featured a story on a realtor and he had a 2013 B7 and he could have cared less that it was an Alpina. Probably bought it because it was expensive and fast.

Not many people that I have talked to that know what a B7 is, know anything else about Alpina.
