It was a good time to sell the SL. I loved every minute of it and I miss it dearly but I know the release of the new 570SL will bring the value down. I got a great offer on it and it's on it's way to Canada. One less Superleggera in the US.
B7 is on it's way to me as we speak. I'll post pics. Found a low mileage gem with all options and I can't wait. This was the first Lambo but it definitely won't be the last. I'll be on the hunt for something exotic this fall.

I have owned an 2007 Alpina B7 for 3 years, along side with my old 2008 M5.
I did a lot of testing with both cars, and the Alpina B7 and the M5 from a rolling start are matched until 140 where the M5 begins to pull ahead.
The Alpina B7 is an amazing car, and I really do miss it. I would highly recommend the B7. If you have any questions about it you can PM me and i'll try to answer them. I have nothing but good things to say about it.
Be aware that they are producing a 4wd and 2wd model Alpina B7 which will be available in the states soon. If you want a newer body style, then wait for that to come out. Unlike the 2007 MY they are also producing the B7 in both wheel base lengths.
Depending on where you live, is how you decide on a 2WD/4WD. If I had it in the north east I would get the 4WD, but if I decide to buy one and keep it in FL I would much rather have the 2WD.
Good luck..
