Who would of thought CarMax would carry these autobahn cruise missiles, and offer a five year 100,000 mile bumper-to-bumper MaxCare warranty?! Well, other than me. The BMW Alpina B7 is in lieu of an M7, with the engine hand-built by Alpina in Bavaria. The car sold for about $130,000 new and only 500 were slated for the US market in 2011. You can have it for $39,998. Stiffer suspension, 100 more hp than a 750, bigger wheels, and just more style. I usually cap my unicorns at $35,000, but this one is just a bit more and a bit rare. It’s a two-owner Texas/California car with low miles. Here’s the Car and Driver review from 2011, and here’s the CarMax ad – the car is in LA. If the link is dead, the car is sold, on hold, or being transferred.

I had the pleasure of driving (someone else’s) new Alpina B7 on a 100+ mile road trip. Not a canyon carver of course, but it was an absolute locomotive on the highway.
