ALPINA B7S TURBO(e-24)
In May 1982 the
limited edition Alpina B7S Turbo Saloon went out of production.
In the same month Alpina introduced the second limited edition
series, the B7S Turbo Coupe. But this time the production was
limited to just 30 cars instead of 60. The Coupe had the same
330 bhp 3,5 litre turbocharged engine and the same gearbox as
the saloon, a five-speed unit, specially developed by ZF to handle
to the giant torque, 500 Nm, excatly the same as in the new BMW
M5. That
makes this car very fast, 0-100 km/h in 5,4 seconds and a top
speed of over 260 km/h. Of course all other sub-systems
of the car is changed to handle the power, such as improved suspension,
wheels and brakes.
