What is an Alpina B12 5.7 Coupe?

The B12 Coupes were 8-series cars by German tuner/manufacturer Alpina (http://www.alpina.de).
There was a B12 5.0 (353hp, automatic, 97 units) and a 5.7l version (CSi-based, manual, 416hp, 57 units built).
The torque curve of the 5.7 is quite interesting as maximum torque (570Nm) reaches from 4000 to 5000 rpm. In addition, the B12 5.7 Coupe does have a very nice hood (see link below).

Unfortunately they are ultra-rare. Some technical data can be seen on my website (http://www.e31.net) under ...well, 'Technical Data' ;-)
