2008 BMW ALPINA B7 Overview

Introduction

The BMW Alpina B7 is an ultra luxury high-performance sedan. This large BMW sedan has been tuned by the well-known motorsport company Alpina, that helped create the 3.0CSL which won the European touring car championship in 1973.

The Alpina B7 is based off of the BMW 7-series. The equipment level is similar to the 760Li and it has been given subtle external modifications to set it apart from other 7-series. Performance tuning is where the Alpina B7 stands alone. It is powered by a supercharged 500 hp, 4.4-liter, V-8 engine. This power is controlled by a six-speed automatic transmission with manual gear select paddles. Connecting the sedan to the road are four massive cast-alloy 21-inch wheels. Eight airbags, traction control, four-wheel-disc brakes, and electronic stability system are standard.

The BMW Alpina B7 carries over from 2007.
