It was capable of running the 0-62mph (0-100 km/h), sprint in 6.8 seconds, before reaching speeds exceeding 174 mph (280km/h), which is quite impressive for a car almost a quarter century old. The vehicle has only been driven 28,000 miles (45.061 km) and is in excellent condition. Alpina reports that the vehicle’s fuel consumption is 19.4 liters/100 km (12.1 mpg US and 14.5 mpg UK).
