Careful. This statement gives Tuuner flashbacks of his days as a heterosexual.

heard a lot of good things about the B7 but from older guys. drive one, if you fancy it take the plunge. good to hear you got proper $ for the SL, good time to move on.

it`s indeed a very classy car with loads of torque and good ride comfort

only pros imo..
it`s very rare,relatively reasonable priced and does offer anything a DD should have

Classy car for sure, I like it because its very exclusive and the bodykit treatment and wheels are superb.

I would agree about the B7 being awesome. The interior quality alone is worth the price of admission, imo. They're beautifully built, very exclusive, and hardly slow. Hard to go wrong, imo.

Although I can't comment on ownership experience (maintenance/reliability), I couldn't find one complaint when I test drove a B7 Alpina. Class combined with sporty looks that never gets old. I'm sure you would love it, C.
