Vehicle Description
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 cars 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 cars 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 wires, new
satellite radio installed. (Original blaupunkt included) As well as
new thermostat, t-stat, o-rings and oil level sending unit.

size 235/45ZR17 in front and 255/40ZR17 in the back. Each tire is

headliner are in very good order. A four-spoke steering wheel faces
the driver and the back dash boasts a full set of gauges and comes
