Recently imported from Japan - Has not seen regular use since the 1990's. Relatively low miles - 160k kilometers / 100k miles. Exterior is nice - paint looks good from 5-10 feet and original Alpina graphics have held up well. Up close there is a couple square inches of missing clear-coat near the washer nozzles on the hood and the roof has some oxidation. Interior is in good condition with clean dash, nice headliner and door panels and average/modest wear on the front seats.
Driving: Original engine / transmission / exhaust. Car starts right up and runs well. Engine is smooth and has good power. Very relaxed gearing - approx 2000RPM at 100km/h. Transmission shifts well and clutch feels great. Brakes feel good.
Brand new Toyo Proxes T1 in the proper Alpina sizes 235/45x17 and 265/40x17.
Issues:
Wood near the shifter could use some oil / refinish.
Leather on Alpina by Momo steering wheel poor
Both front seats are slightly out of alignment - in need of 'BMW seat twist' cable repair
Front air dam - lower edge trim rusting
Windshield-wiper linkage on passenger side loose
AC does not blow cold
Crack in windshield - horizontal / low near dash
