Following the full takeover by BMW, Alpina's future is more uncertain than ever. Nevertheless, a special edition for Japan based on the current B4 announced, which is limited to just four vehicles and from the Japanese Alpina importer Nicole Automobiles was presented in the Land of Smiles. All four vehicles will look different, but will come in either Frozen Black Metallic or Fire Orange exterior colors. The rims of the four vehicles are always different and come with either a gold, black or anthracite finish, which is intended to represent the carmaker's large repertoire of colors. The rims are always 20-inch ALPINA Classic wheels.
Base: Alpina B4
As far as we know, nothing has changed on the chassis of the noble quartet. Only black exhaust pipes can be seen to further underline the exclusivity of the vehicles. In addition to various ALPINA goodies such as an Alcantara steering wheel, special decorative seams and ALPINAshift paddles, dark wood inlays on the dashboard and the center console also adorn the interior. Thus, in JDM-Spec Alpina B4 the noble claim of the new BMW subsidiary clearly visible. This is also underlined by the merino full leather interior in black.
The drive is the well-known R6 turbo petrol engine!
The heart of the sporty Allgäuer is a straight-six petrol engine with a displacement of three liters and a powerful 495 hp. The maximum torque is a hefty 730 Newton meters, which means that the top speed is 301 km/h, similar to a sports car. The gear changes take place via an optimized eight-speed automatic transmission from ZF on all four wheels.
Exclusive prices for exclusive automobiles!
The prices called make the quartet an expensive pleasure. It only starts at the equivalent of €127.000. You get the Alpina for that B4 in Fire Orange with gold rims. And it continues with a vehicle that combines the golden rims with the paint finish Frozen Black Metallic. This B4 stands for the equivalent of €129.200 in the price list. An orange Gran Coupé with black aluminum is also available for around €130.300. The most expensive member of the quartet is the black model with anthracite-colored aluminum, which is available for the equivalent of €132.000.
