The Alpina B5 has always been a sort of special car, elegant, fast and distinctive all at the same time. Its no wonder that the upcoming Alpina B5 has had a pre-release following similar to a series BMW. The car has been tracked through development spyshot after spyshot, artists even attempted to render the car to guess at what it would look like. Thankfully, it seems the car is now set for its release and showing to the world at the Goodwood Festival of Speed (July 1 - 4, 2010).

The car itself is of course based on the 6th generation BMW 5-Series, and for ALPINA too this will be their 6th generation B5. As the name implies, this car will be a twin-turbo and as Alpina mentions, there will be an eye towards fuel economy with this car... atleast a little. As of now, they remain tight lipped on specs, but have released this teaser image out into the wild. Guess we will find out more about this little beast in July!
