Pros
  • Wonderful styling
  • More understated than the B3
  • Available with manual transmission
  • No AWD nonsense
  • Exceptionally beautiful
  • Proven rather reliable
  • Great handling
  • Good double-wishbone + multi-link suspension setup
  • Arguably even better-looking than the F01
  • Great fit and finish
Cons
  • Inline-4 Alpina?
  • Stuck with MacPherson struts in the front
  • Started Alpina's descend to AWD
  • Old 6HP transmission before facelift
