BMW M is too chicken to take on the Audi RS4 Avant and Mercedes-AMG C63 Estate. It says that people who desire fast middle-sized BMWs with space for brave pets buy the X3 M instead. It says there"s no market. No need whatsoever, for an M3 Touring. BMW is wrong. Not only is the X3M a terrible car only fools will own, but Alpina has just gone and proved once again that a super-fast 3 Series wagon is all the car we really need, and want. And we really, really want this one. Meet the new 2020 Alpina B3 Touring. First off, we"ll talk about the spec Alpina is showing off on its latest tuned Bimmer. Dark emerald green, blacked-out detailing, silver 20-inch multispoke wheels (both choices are demo"d on the car in the pictures) and a subtle, quad-tailpiped bodykit. It"s stunning. Swap the cream interior for tan and we"re sold. And that"s before we get to the oomph.
