Very cool car, arguably the best E30 model.

Lots of money!

[Simon13]

amaze balls.

The regular B6 is pretty special but these are the next notch.

Heavy M30? the B6s used regular e30 m3 springs for an air con'd spec car.

Maybe but the B6's like all Alpina's were put together well unlike the Hartge Lash ups.....

[capri_rob]

As good as a production E30 gets IMO.

[Rav335uk]

A very cool car.
Well built with a pedigree background.
As above, not some lash up without any paperwork to back it up, unless it's been printed at home on the laptop

[capri_rob]

To the OP - why do you want to know ? are you buying one ?

Is there any zoners on here who own one ?

That looks mega-sexy Didn't even know that there was E30 M3 Alpina...or should I say B6 3.5S?

Yes all 62 of them!

[Speedtouch]

Ask pacerpete - he owned one.

Rather have a sportevo tbh.

[Fastroad]

A serious machine

[ross_jsy]

Rather have a sportevo tbh.

Same, I feel part of the appeal of an m3 is a light, free revving engine you have to ring to get power out of

Alpina knew what they were doing back in the day,

they removed the Achilles heel of the E30 M3 (the spastic 4 pot S14) and fitted a proper engine.. a B6s is, and always will be a far better car than an M3 due to the awesome M30 donk

Hahaha bollox. The s14 is arguably one of the best engines made. Makes the m3 what it is!

M3 designed to be lightweight.

[Simon13]

yes on a race track, but comparing them as road cars. Which we are, the B6s will just disappear. Much easier car to live with on a day to day drive. No thrashing needed to make swift progress.

Whats as S14 manage at a million revs? 160lbs? the M30's pushing 220 plus?

[SteSE]

260 in the B6S.

I'm sure contemporary road tests claimed the B6S was less prone to understeer than the M3 despite the heavier engine.

[Fastroad]

This one was up for sale a few years ago in Norway. Who likes the colour??

[Morat]

Crap colour, I'd have to reduce my offer to just the one testicle and my first born.

Only one testicle for those absolutely rare Alpina colour coded Mats

[brettski]

A zoner owns one I think his user name was kelson.

Come off it, how many people use their m3s of any description on a day to day basis?

The fun of the m3 is that it has to be thrashed to get the best from it, a completely different character to any other e30.

Different strokes for different folks I guess. But if I wanted a properly quick e30 m3 I'd start with a standard car and bung an s50b32, which in day to day driving would probably disappear from a b6s

[pukar]

best e30, no question....so why ask?

lets have it then,

I took these at rockingham in 2003. Along with Kelsons they are the only 2 I've been lucky enough to see in the flesh








Car had a quite a story to tell (nothing bad like write offs) and has been featured over the years

This was the zone in its infancy!

The best Alpina bumper on an E30

[Fastroad]

I was given some info on a white counselled B6 3.5 someone has been spotted around the slough area. Anyone here?

I remember seeing one sitting like a garden gnome....

[SteSE]

The best Alpina bumper on an E30

That's the lower half of an E34 Alpina spoiler lashed onto an M3 front bumper.

ie, not a genuine article.

If i'm not mistaken, that car in the picture has a B10 Bi turbo engine and various E34 dash parts nailed onto and E30 dash.
