I saw two '07 Alpina B7's last weekend.

And let me just say, they are WAY prettier in person than in pictures.

I was in Atlanta and saw two of them, both Valet'd.

My question is, has anyone every ridden/driven one? Are they as "bad" as people make them out to be? Or is it just 500 horses and a nice badge?

Just curious.

I have and I wasn't impressed, but I can see the draw if you're a BMW and Alpina fan.

Looks okay I guess - not my preference. That interior is hideous.

As ltrrtl28 above says, I'll take my high speed luxury with an AMG badge, thanks.

Nice car.

The S8 is too casual for my tastes. Great car, but very understated.

I love the S8 but I've seen too many new Audis ending up in the shop to be comfortable owning one.
