It does seem that way. I'm sure the Alpina is a fantastic car that does a lot of things better than the M3 ( fuel efficiency , comfort etc) while still offering awesome performance but I will be utterly amazed if it starts lapping circuits faster than the new M3. In fact I will state now that the only test in which it out performs an M3 on a track is this one in the hands of Sutcliffe.
I also believe that straight line speed will be in favour of the M3 by a decent margin from a roll or dig with M3 using LC.
