We already know that for some unknown reasons BMW won’t be building the M7, so the closest thing to an M7 from BMW is Alpina B7, which will go on sale in North America this spring.

This luxury high-performance sedan is not cheap. Pricing starts from $122,875 for the standard wheelbase model and $126,775 for the extended wheelbase model.

Power comes from a twin-turbocharged 4.4 liter V8 that develops 500 (373kW) horsepower and 516 lb-ft (700Nm) of torque in conjunction with the electronically-adjustable suspension with Active Roll Stabilization, the new B7 promises to offer a spectrum of driving experiences. This rear-wheel drive sedan achieves 0-60 mph in 4.5 sec.

The evolution of the traditional 20-spoke 21″ ALPINA Classic wheels underlines the fresh design language found throughout the B7 and imparts to it a distinctive appearance and powerful stance.

The B7 sedan is finished with ALPINA aerodynamic developments, including front and rear spoilers which not only enhance the appearance but also improve stability and performance at high speeds.

The interior of the B7 sedan features ALPINA blue illuminated door sill trims, Switchtronic heated steering wheel in hand-stitched Lavalina leather, Alcantara headliner, Heads Up display, and the Black-Panel LCD screen instrument cluster branded with ALPINA. Hand-stitched Lavalina leather also covers the dashboard, door panels, center console, multi-contour front seats with heating and cooling, and heated rear seats.
