    I'm not one to generally react to anything on this medium, however this
    Alpina 12.5 has generated emotions I am can unabashedly guilty of.

    Ned, I envy you. Few have seen that in a parking lot. Outstanding. 1 of 1 in the US for a 5.7 B12. That's the only one that exists here.

    To bad alpina no longer offers tasteful vehicles such as these...
    Thanks for sharing the photos, pretty awesome.

    Rough shape? Did you see the pix? There may be some surface rust on the underside/ muffler but thats really not a big deal at all if the bodywork/ engine are near immaculate - which they appear to be.

    Thanks for adding to the pics I put up!


    When he drove off, I was surprised by how quiet the car was for a v12.

    Beautiful cars to be sure. Too bad the V12s are a little lackluster considering their displacement.

    Lack luster? The 5.0 is 350hp and the 5.7 is 415... and this is a SOHC V12 from the 80's. It's not bad imo.
