Drivers following this very expensive car will say .... look at that ... how can they let this happen to such a nice car.

It's double 'slat' kidney grilles and can be seen clearly in most of the pics.

The M5 has less than 4% more power than the Alpina B5. With numbers that close, the fact that they differ is all but arbitrary. The M3 will likely be lighter than the B3 though, and most probably have less lag too.

You might end up being right with your guess, but I am just saying that looking at the equivalent alpina isn't necessarily going to be a good indicator of what to expect.

HP figures are for marketing. Let's wait until we get some real test drives.

If BMW cuts some fat off the F80 and we get a decent power to weight ratio, things may turn out well.
