2024 BMW Alpina B8 B8 4.4 V8 Biturbo

About this BMW Alpina B8

The BMW Alpina B8 is the quiet alternative to an M8, and this 2024 example is a Japanese-market car with 13,000 km on the odometer in Mineral White. Alpina's approach has always been to build fast cars that are comfortable on a long drive rather than cars that shout about their output, and the B8 Gran Coupe is the clearest expression of that idea in the current range. ## Vehicle specification - First registration: 2024 - Mileage: 13,000 km - Engine: 4.4-litre V8, twin-turbocharged - Maximum output: 621 PS (457 kW) from 5,500 to 6,500 rpm - Transmission: 8-speed automatic - Steering: right-hand drive - Body style: four-door Gran Coupe - Exterior colour: Mineral White - Dimensions: 5,090 x 1,930 x 1,430 mm - Kerb weight: 2,140 kg - Fuel: petrol, premium unleaded - Seating: 5 ## Equipment highlights - 21-inch Alpina alloy wheels - Adaptive cruise control - Lane keeping assist - Park assist with clearance sonar - Autonomous emergency braking - Automatic high beam - Head-up display - HDD navigation with full-segment digital TV - Heated, ventilated and power-adjustable leather seats - 360-degree camera with side and front cameras - Power tailgate - Keyless entry and smart key - Driving recorder - Dual-zone climate control - Bluetooth and USB input ## Condition and provenance The car was first registered in Japan in 2024 and is recorded as an official-import dealer vehicle with no repair history. Japanese vehicle inspections are valid until May 2027, which indicates the car has been maintained in line with the domestic schedule rather than left standing. The photo set documents the exterior panels, the 21-inch wheels, the engine bay, the cabin and the boot area. Mineral White is a good choice on the B8 because the shape is subtle. The car's visual interest comes from proportions and surfacing rather than add-on bodywork, and a light metallic colour shows those surfaces more clearly than a dark one. ## Why this car is worth considering The B8 exists in a narrow space. It has more usable torque low down than an M8 Competition, a softer ride in comfort mode, and a cabin that is trimmed more like a luxury car than a track car. The 4.4-litre V8 is the same basic engine found across BMW's larger performance models, but Alpina's own calibration, cooling and transmission software change how it delivers power. The result is a car that will cover a long distance quickly without leaving the driver tired. Practical points also stack up well. It is a four-door with a proper boot, it seats five, and the equipment list includes the driver aids that make a big, fast saloon easy to live with in town. The 21-inch wheels and the low-profile tyres they carry are the one compromise you should think about if your local roads are poor. ## Buying and export with ZervTek ZervTek can visit the car in person, take additional photos and video, and ask the dealer any questions you want answered before purchase.
