2003 BMW Z8 ALPINA
Rare 2003 BMW Z8 ALPINA - 1 of 450 US Cars - Low Miles and Pristine!!!
One of the rarest BMW's ever made - This fine example is immaculate inside and out and has less than 25,000 miles. A rare 1 Owner, California vehicle.
The Alpina came only as an automatic, using a five-speed BMW Steptronic transmission allied to a downgraded 4.6 L Alpina-tuned V8 motor from the Alpina E39 B10 V8 S (M62). In order to complete the car's transition from sportscar to boulevardier, relaxed suspension tuning was used. The standard Z8's run-flat tires and 18 inch wheels were discarded in favor of conventional tires with softer sidewalls, and 20 inch wheels. A new, softer grade of Nappa leather replaced the Z8's less supple specification, and special Alpina gauges were featured on the dash cluster. An Alpina steering wheel with three solid spokes replaced the original, which could not be retrofitted with shift paddles for the automatic. Gear selection was displayed in an Alpina-specific display mounted in front of the wheel.
Performance of the Alpina V8 differed from that of the standard car in that peak power was reduced to 375 hp while peak torque was raised to 383 lb·ft. This torque was available at significantly lower rpm than the original in order to enable more relaxed cruising. Curiously, the electronically limited top speed was officially raised to 161 mph.
Only 555 of these Alpinas were built, 450 of which were exported to the U.S.
