Ultimate version of the E28

1987 BMW Alpina B7 Turbo/3

For sale is the most rare version of the BMW E28 body style ever built. After Alpina built the exclusive E12 and E24 B7S Turbos in '81 & '82, the E28 B7 Turbo that came out in '84 with 300 horsepower that the rest of the world received was just not good enough for Alpina buyers in Japan. They demanded an E28 with the same 330 horsepower of the B7S, and this model--the B7 Turbo/3--was built to answer their demand, just for their market. Built on the M5 chassis, Alpina made only 30 of them, 4 with manual transmissions and 26 with automatic transmissions. This car is 1 of those 4 cars with manual transmissions, so in reality it is 1 of only 4 cars built in this model with this spec in the world. The transmission is a 5-speed overdrive transmission, which Alpina chose for these 4 cars; it has a limited-slip differential, Alpina sports suspension, Alpina big brakes, a special digital gauge on the dash to provide boost, temp, and other readings, an extended-range fuel tank in the trunk, the original spare wheel and tire, a new custom-made stainless steel rear muffler (we also have the original one, if you prefer that), Alpina 17" wheels (we also have the original 16" wheels, if you prefer those), all of the Alpina signature interior and exterior features that Alpina installed on their cars at the time, and an uncracked dash. The car has only 60,724 mi (97,158 km) on the clock. Selling for $170,000 when new in 1987, it is in as excellent condition as a 30 year old car can be, and it is totally original. It has never been modified or restored in any way. With just 2 owners since new, the current owner purchased it with only 6,500 km on it, and has kept it original, maintained it fastidiously, and garaged it the entire time he has owned it. The car will be sold with service records, the original manuals, and the original brochures that came with it when new. Note that the VIN of this car does not show in the listing above due it being a Euro-version. The actual VIN is WAPB7TL016B730254. We have included photos of this shown both stamped on the body and on the VIN plate in the engine bay, for verification. Also note that this car is currently at our facility in Japan, but we will assist the buyer with importing it to the port of their choice, and we will sell the car to any country in the world. Shipping charges are extra, and their cost depends on how the car is imported. You can get an ocean freight shipping quote from the port of Tokyo to your closest port on the shipping link in this listing, or on wcshipping.com or one of many other on-line sites providing these estimates. Feel free to e-mail us via eBay with any questions you might have. We reserve the right to end this auction early to sell the car directly.
