According to a new post on the M5board, a member from Japan acknowledged that Alpina Japan have started taking orders for the new Alpina B3, which will be based on the 335i. It's rumored to have 360hp on paper, but it's well known that Alpina have always been conservative on the published performance figures, so a 10-20hp increase IRL can be expected.

But the sad part is that it will have quad-pipes a la M3.

The sleeper look with dual-pipes seems to be history now
