2021 of $13,000.00 This example was originally an Alpina
demonstrator in Europe as the car was never sold in the United
States. It was sold to Herman Linn, a BMW motorcycle dealer in
Germany. The car was later shipped to Japan, where it remained
until 2016. Emerging from a Japanese collection, it came to Canada
then was imported to a collector in Phenix, AZ who owned until
2022. Dressed in Diamond Black Metallic (code 181), the car?s paint
and trim are in overall excellent condition. While most of the car
is in an unrestored state, the hood and bumpers have been resprayed
during prior ownership due to minor rock chips, not damage. The
bodywork is solid and straight, the engine bay is extremely tidy
and the car?s body-colored bumpers fit tightly. A set of side
skirts and a rear apron from Zender and AC Schnitzer have been
installed. While this car has enjoyed more international traveling
than most of us, it has always been lovingly cared for and stored
as it is one of the most elusive BMW/Alpinas ever produced. It has
been driving sparingly having traveled only 83,000 km or 62,000
miles. When the previous owner from Arizona took proud possession
of this steed he wanted the car to be perfect and that the car
serviced and repaired at a cost of $13,000. between 2020 and 2021
with receipts in hand. He had both front and rear bumper and hood
repainted, entire car was paint corrected, polished and ceramic
coated. The original Alpina graphic were removed. (Complete new set
included in box) Windows were tinted, new BMW A/C compressor and
A/C service, front end alignment, new control bushings, new exhaust
manifold gasket, new motor mounts, tune up with new plugs and
