Ferrari Red 1993 Alpina B12 5.7 Coupe 6-Speed

This 1993 Alpina B12 5.7 Coupe is number #27 of 57 and was ordered with special-order Ferrari Red paintwork, anthracite Buffalo leather upholstery, and an Alpina-modified 5.7-liter V12 mated to a six-speed manual transmission and a limited-slip differential. B12s were based on the 850CSi model and received a vented hood, revised front springs, 18″ Softline wheels, and unique interior details, and this example was federalized for the US market in 2004. In 2007, it was returned to Germany for a refresh at the Buchloe factory, at which time the engine was rebuilt. The car changed hands in 2019 and has been fitted with a refreshed interior featuring red-and-black dashboard, an Alcantara headliner, and a CD43 head unit. A CSi-style front valance has also been fitted in favor of the Alpina component, and HID headlights were installed. Between 2024 and 2025 the Michelin tires were mounted, the suspension was refreshed, and the clutch was replaced. Now indicating 141k kilometers (~87k miles), this Alpina-modified E31 is offered by the seller in California on behalf of the owner with manufacturer’s literature, service records, Alpina documentation and a clean Montana title in the owner’s name.

The car was specified in special-order Ferrari Red from the factory, and it was fitted with an 850CSi-style front end and refinished by a previous owner. The seller notes a chip on a fender necessitated a respray of the panel in preparation for the sale, and the front valance was refinished at the same time. The car retains its B12-specific vented hood with a NACA duct, and HID headlights have been installed.

Alpina Softline 18” wheels were mounted with 245/40 front and 285/35 rear Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4 tires in December 2024, at which time the thrust bushing arms and dampers were replaced. The B12 5.7 retained most of the European-specification 850CSi suspension and brakes, including the rear-wheel steering system, and Alpina fitted revised front lowering springs.

The cabin is trimmed in anthracite leather with Alpina-motif accents, and the front seats are heated and power-adjustable. The dashboard has been retrimmed with black and red accents and leather upholstery, and a CD43 stereo was installed along with a Alcantara headliner. The Alpina-logo shift knob was redone to match the dashboard. Pixels on the multi-information display were repaired in 2025, and the air conditioning was twice recharged this year.

The leather-wrapped steering wheel features blue and green stitching and frames an Alpina blue 340-km/h speedometer, a tachometer with a 6k-rpm redline, and gauges for fuel level and coolant temperature. The digital odometer indicates 141k kilometers (~87k miles), approximately 1k of which were added under current ownership. A mileage inconsistency is listed on the Carfax report in January 2008 stemming from an odometer reading of 116,411 miles.

Alpina modified the 5.6-liter S70B56 V12 with revised crankshaft, camshafts, intake, exhaust, and ECU programming, with a resulting displacement of 5.7 liters and output rated by the company at 416 horsepower and 420 lb-ft of torque. The engine was rebuilt at the Alpina Buchloe factory in 2007. The serpentine belts and a pulley were replaced in December 2024.

The six-speed manual transmission is linked to a limited-slip differential. In 2025, the clutch disc, pressure plate, clutch release bearing, and rear main seal were replaced and the flywheel was resurfaced.

Alpina documentation is included along with records dating back to the early 2000s.

The Alpina VIN was riveted to the A-pillar at time of importation. Additional images of the car’s serial numbers are displayed in the gallery.

The Carfax report is free of accidents or other reported damage. The car most recently passed a California emissions test in 2019.
