Based on the BMW Z8, Alpina developed the Roadster V8, which was limited to 555 units.
Unlike the BMW Z8, which is very sporty to drive with its 6-speed manual transmission, Alpina focused on ride comfort and cruising qualities.
The 400 hp V8 from the BMW M5 was replaced by an in-house Alpina V8, which delivers slightly less power but higher torque.
The 4.8-liter engine is coupled to a 5-speed automatic transmission, which can be shifted using buttons on the steering wheel when required.
The suspension on the Alpina is also tuned softer and adapted to the larger wheels (20“).
Of the 555 examples produced, approximately 450 were delivered to North America.
Our car arrived in New York as a new vehicle in February 2003 and was sold to its first owner in South Carolina in 2004.
We have a clean Carfax report on file. The first owner kept the car until 2009 and drove it only approximately 8,500 km during that entire time.
Between 2010 and 2020, the Alpina was registered in Moscow, where it was hardly driven at all.
A German dealer acquired the vehicle at the end of 2020 with a mileage of 9,895 km.
In 2021, the car was converted from US to ECE specification at the BMW dealership in Dortmund.
Among other things, it received new rear lights and new exterior mirrors. The engine and transmission control units were removed and reprogrammed by Alpina. In addition, a major service was carried out.
This work is documented with photographs and invoices.
It has been registered in Germany since April 2021 and has remained with the same owner throughout. The TÜV inspection was renewed again in April 2026.
Its condition is outstanding. Whether the seats, door entry areas, steering wheel, or all the buttons and switches – everything is completely unworn and in the condition of a one-year-old car.
As an emerging classic, the BMW Z8 in its Alpina variant is particularly interesting. This may be the last opportunity to secure such a vehicle in an almost like-new condition.
