Vehicle Description
Those who have had the privilege of seeing this car in person don't
just admire it-they proclaim it to be the coolest M3 they've ever
encountered. This is no ordinary E36.
This 1995 BMW M3 was special-ordered as a BMW Individual model,
then sent to Alpina for exclusive enhancements before being
delivered through BMW's European Delivery Program to its original
owner. It began life as a U.S.-spec car, but that's where "spec"
ends and "special" begins.
From the first glance, it's clear that this M3 is in a league of
its own. The special-order Grey Metallic paint is completely
original, untouched, and flawless-a true testament to its
preservation. Inside, the breathtaking BMW Motorsports interior
features an ultra-rare combination of black cloth and Alcantara
suede, accented with BMW M Individual details and striking red
carbon fiber trim.
Every inch of this car exudes exclusivity. It boasts red
Motorsports seat belts, red M carbon fiber trim, M door sills and
guards, an M illuminated shift knob, a Euro passenger-side mirror,
a full onboard computer, power rear wing windows, rear seat
headrests, a rear sunshade, and dual under-seat fire extinguishers.
It rides on extremely rare staggered M3 GT forged aluminum wheels,
with a factory Motorsports strut brace adding to its performance
pedigree.
Alpina's enhancements push this M3 even further. A bespoke digital
gauge panel provides real-time monitoring of engine oil pressure
and temperature, differential oil temperature, and coolant
temperature. A finned aluminum differential cover adds both style
and function, while factory Alpina floor mats complete the
package.
Every known E36 M3 weak point has been addressed by the best BMW
technicians in the country, ensuring this car remains mechanically
flawless. The original exhaust was removed for Steve Dinan's
performance modifications, then Jet-Hot aluminum-coated from the
headers to the tips before being reinstalled. It now sits on
like-new Michelin Pilot Sport tires, ready to deliver the
razor-sharp handling that defines the M3 experience.
To preserve its immaculate condition, paint protection film has
been applied to all high-wear areas, ensuring its pristine finish
remains untouched.
With its stunning originality, factory-backed rarity, and Alpina's
expert craftsmanship, this is more than just a remarkable E36-it
may very well be the ultimate factory U.S.-spec M3 ever built.
