ALPINA has been making a number of truly amazing cars over the years. And we can look at some of the best in this list from Autocar.
While this article is about ALPINA as well as BMW M. It is just about the former one that we will concentrate on. Some of those mentioned here might probably be better than the renowned M car or the BMW.
First is the E36 ALPINA B6 4.6, one of the best vehicles to wear a Roundel ever. It was a naturally aspirated V8 of 4,6 liters. That is indeed right, an E36 3 series with a V8 in the cap. And it was much stronger than the M3 of the time. That alone is one of the best ALPINAs in history.
The E24 ALPINA B7 Turbo, which was based on the E24 BMW 6 series is also worth visiting. The B7 was the first turbocharged ALPINA to market directly to consumers. And was one of the first cars of the brand. ALPINA was only selling tuning kits to BMW before the E24 B7. It was the B7 which made ALPINA a car producer, among a handful of others at the time.
APINA B3 GT3 is on the list as well. It was based on the E92 BMW 3 serious, and it looked really incredible. Only 99 B3 GT3s have ever been produced, so they are extremely unique and expensive. However, these are also good to drive.
