Would be a cool package:

This is something that Alpina should have produced years ago, would have bought one, instead I had to settle for a 435D GC :(
Great car but a four door version of my B4BT would have been perfect :D

Hope they can do away with that horrible grill on the present 4 series :sick

I thought Andy B had said a 4-series based car wouldn’t be possible in the future?

Indeed would be a perfect car Brian. Going with the cruising nature. A B6 GC RHD would have been cool...but we will have to settle for a B8...

It will be a shame if they drop the B4 2dr coupe in favour of a GC.

It would mean the end of a continued lineage of a 2dr saloon/coupe Alpina from the E10 all the way through E21, E30, E36, E46, E92 and F32.
E39 B10 V8/1 #81
E28 B9 3.5 #536
plus a few other BMW's.
