The Alpina is also over 200 lb lighter than the M5 at 3,790 lb. Alpina, which has been tuning BMWs for years, has come up with a competitor to the new M5. It is powered by BMW's straight six, bored out to 3.3 liter. Do you prefer revving to 8,000 rpm or getting a massive thump in the back at 4,000-5,500 rpm?If you fancy something a bit more nimble, try the BMW Alpina B3 S Coupe. At idling and when driving at low speed, the compressor does not operate, so gas mileage is quite good. The tires are Michelin Pilot Sport 2s, 245/40ZR 19 at the
air jordan femme front and 275/35ZR 19 at the rear - these are just a bit narrower than those on the M5. BMW's M Division does without turbos and superchargers. As a result, it claims this is the world's fastest production sedan - and not many people would argue.Heart of the BMW Alpina B5 - based on the 5 Series, like the M5 - is BMW's 4.4 liter V-8. Not Alpina; they have adopted a centrifugal compressor, engine driven, to boost power throughout the speed range and produce the same power ouput as the BMW V-10.Bu the system has a neat twist. Thanks to the supercharger, there's massive
nike tn torque over a big range, with the maximum of 516 lb ft available from 4,250 to 5,250 rpm - terrific mid-range power.The engine drives through a ZF six-speed automatic, and the brakes, wheels and tires are all upgraded. Good for 168 mph and a 0-60 mph time of 5.4 seconds. A true competitor for many sports cars.John Hartley is editor of
www.fast-autos.com, an online magazine devoted to fast cars and supercars. It churns out 305 bhp at 6,300 rpm. It develops the same amount of power, reaches 60 mph in 4.7 seconds and has a top speed of 195 mph - Alpina does not believe in 155 mph limiters for its cars. Not a copy, a different approach to getting similar performance. A throttle plate upstream of the supercharger cuts it in and out according to load.Mighty powerful with 500 bhpThis is a mighty powerful engine; at 2,500 rpm it develops 200 bhp, and ramps up to 500 bhp at only 5,500 rpm, so the character of the engine is completely different from BMW's V-10.
