Video: Making of the Alpine BMW Sinister Six

Alpine hooked us up with another build video, this time for the incredible Alpine Sinister Six. The car started life as an $83,000 BMW 645Ci and was transformed into one of the most amazing demo vehicles evar. This car has made it's rounds to many different shows, so those that have had the pleasure of seeing it in person can attest to its sheer brilliance. It's hard to choose just which aspect of this car is more amazing.... The motorized entry and exit? The LCD screen taillights? The fact that it has no steering wheel, just a steering knob? The 26x13 rear wheels? I could keep going. One thing the Alpine guys did tell me, is that this has one of the most expensive remote start systems ever. Since the car was so new, no bypass module was available to integrate with the factory alarm system, so the team had relocate the factory ignition switch, leave a key in it, and the use a motorized actuator to remotely turn the key in order to start the car!!

Check out Part 1 of the Sinister Six build video after the jump. Have you seen this car in person? What do you think was the craziest thing Alpine did to this BMW 645?
