E39 Alpina???

How do you verify if an E39 M5 is a true Alpina or just an M5 that someone put Alpina badges on? Are there specific features or options that only came on the Alpina E39's?

Thanks.,

Alpina dont use "M badges" if it was a V8 it was an Alpina B10 but it used a different V8 to the e39 M5 but most likely it was neither an M5 or an Alpina, just some wannabe.
