five independently operable batmobile/paparazzi cloaking shields (i mean sun screens) line the rear windows. each front seat administers buttock massage on demand. two multimedia consoles serve up bluetooth ipod player, television and dvd, weather station, proximity detectors, and a night-vision view of the road. if the windshield detects moisture, it wipes itself off. the ceiling is molded, as an italian sofa, in plush cowhide. the whole thing reaches +100mph without passengers detecting any difference from a mellow 60. engine noise is eerily absent.
the alpina is also more expensive than my mother's condominium.

"Felt heavy?" Sure -- the car weighs 4650 pounds. It also hits 60 in 4.5 seconds, and pulls 0.91G. It has infrared night vision.
I prefer lighter, simpler cars, too, but that thing was incredible.
