The Alpina B6S blends the refinement of the 6-Series with Alpina’s engineering mastery, delivering 530 horsepower in a meticulously crafted grand tourer. It’s a rare combination of performance, exclusivity, and timeless design.
Overview
SBX Cars is proud to offer for sale this 2008 BMW 650 Alpina B6S showing just 52,800 km (32,808 mi) on the odometer at the time of cataloging. Finished in Mondstein Silver metallic over a white and Piano black leather cabin, this rare grand tourer is widely regarded as the ultimate expression of BMW’s E63 6-Series generation.
Alpina, the legendary BMW tuner, is known for creating vehicles that perfectly blend luxury, comfort, and speed into the kind of understated cars prized by clients seeking discreet, but serious performance. This B6S is a prime example of this approach with its subtle Deco-Set pin striping, killer Alpina Dynamic wheels, and thundering V8 powertrain.
Not obvious to the average passerby, enthusiasts know this is an all-time BMW 6-Series. Along with the sharp yet low-key exterior enhancements, Alpina has taken the factory N62 V8 and elevated it with Mahle pistons, a forged crankshaft, and a centrifugal supercharger. In ultra-rare S guise, like today’s example, the result is 530 horsepower, 0-60 in 4.5 seconds, and a blistering top speed of 198 mph.
