Bmw 850csi Alpina
This 1994 BMW 850CSi is a European. ALPINA gives us a rare look at one of the most desirable cars it has ever built, the B12 5.7 Coupe based on the BMW 850 CSi (E31). The BMW E31 is the first generation of the BMW 8 Series.
It is a grand tourer built by BMW from 1990 to 1999 as a 2-door coupé, powered by either a V8 or V12 engine. As the RUF of BMWs, Alpina is a master of balancing performance with luxury, and the 1992-94 B12 is its ultimate flagship. The greatest BMW E31 8 Series ever built may be the stillborn M8 prototype, powered by the 6.1-liter S70/1, the V-12 that was soon developed into McLaren's S70/2.
However, this 1993 Alpina B12 is not far behind in the ranks, thanks to its bored 850 CSi engine that's. The B12 5.7 Coupé is one of the fastest cars Alpina have ever produced. It is based on the BMW 850CSi which was presented in late 1992 and the B12 5.7 Coupé was introduced about a half year later.
Alpina admitted that with the 850CSi, BMW Motorsport did a terrific job so the B12 5.7 Coupé is just an enhancement of the 850CSi.
