Got a new car finally, was holding out for an M5, but this thing was just to good a deal to pass on, Its a 1990 Alpina B10 3.5/1 - #349 of 572 ever made (not a bi-turbo, still way out of my price range) only downside is its an automatic, but its still an amazing drive.

Just wondering if anyone knows anywhere i could get a front spoiler for it in north america, theres a couple on ebay in england but they will not ship outside the EU, the previous owner really messed up the front spoiler, the body shops tell me its best just to get a new one, as it'll be tough for them to restore the one on the car.

the car is in mint shape besides the front spoiler which needs to be replaced. Got it for a good price.

i think you did great. piece of history and rareness.

It actually wasn't a bad deal in my mind, got it for under 10,000 canadian, there really wasn't much info in terms of what pricing is for these vehicles, i searched quite a bit but could not find anything. I think i got a good deal on it, the car is in mint shape besides the front spoiler which needs to be replaced.

Very nice.. Maybe send an email to EuroMCars (http://euromcars.com/), they sell Alpina's, Euro M5's etc., they might have a lead on how to get one. They are however, located in CA, USA don't know if that might be an issue?? Good Luck..

The only thing I'd say is that you should find the thread for the guy in the UK who found the $6K M5 and see what it would take to bring it to Canada...

...as a daily driver :D

Sweet buy.

On the spoiler, I think as long as you provide proof of ownership to Alpina, they'll sell you a replacement part. Probably not cheap, but... I'm sure there are a few people around here who have these cars and have gotten replacement parts for them. Perhaps someone will pipe up.

There's also the distributor in California, forget the name at the moment...

That's a very beautiful car. the main Alpina distributor for North America is http://www.ksk-alpina.com/. With the strength of the euro a front spoiler won't be cheap. KSK list a new one for $1,075 US$.

Enjoy,
Greg

Thanks for the suggestions guys, cant afford $1075 on a front spoiler, so gonna be holding out for a long time, hopefully one pops up on ebay one day.

Sub-10 grand is an absolute steal for that car.
