On my commute in a few minutes ago, I saw a white BMW Gran Coupe up ahead. It looked a little lower and squatter with fatter tires than a typical one, so I figured it might be a M6. Well, I was wrong.

Apparently it was a !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! - I honestly didn’t even know these were a thing. Once I got up close I saw the big ALPINA lettering on the back and the classic Alpina wheels. Guy behind the wheel was driving it like an old lady, so I didn’t get a chance to hear it or see how quick it went.

Looked exactly like this one:

Same! It looked a little unremarkable in white.

If you ask me, the 6GC is the only current BMW that actually looks good as opposed to just striking.

First one I saw, it was the many spoked wheels that caught my attention, then the long low body lines... followed by my voice, repeating “there’s no such thing as a BMW B6...” while I pinched my arm to help me wake up. That was years ago and I know better now, but it’s still an amazing sight when you see one in the wild!
