This 2007 BMW Alpina B7 is a short-wheelbase example that was purchased new by the seller from South Bay BMW of Torrance, California, and has remained registered in the state since. The car is finished in Black Sapphire Metallic over black Nasca leather and powered by a supercharged 4.4-liter V8 paired with a six-speed automatic transmission.
