Used to seeing the occasional BMW Alpina B7 unicorn in the CarMax inventory, and maybe a B6 from time to time, but today there are three B7’s for sale in the $40k range. Only a couple of hundred of these $130,000+ sedans make it to the US yearly. 
Add a couple grand for a five year, 150,000 mile MaxCare warranty and you’ve got a worry free long distance cruiser! This review (and BMW press release suggests the 2013 and up models amped up to 540hp (and 194 mph top speed!) but CarMax lists all three at 500hp. Not sure why. 
This 2012 model is the “bargain” at $40,998 with AWD, auto cruise control, black on black, and heated steering wheel – but not much else. Find it here in Shaumburg, Illinois – full ads at the bottom of the page. 
In the middle of the pack is this 2014 for $44,998. It’s an L model, just the Cold Weather and Executive packages – no auto cruise control…but if you’re into baseball the interior must have come from Wilson.
It’s here in Burbank, California.
Last is this beautiful 2014 L model at $48,998. Got the NASCAR look black wheels, Driver Assist Package, auto cruise control and nifty video screens in the back. 
Find it here in Murrieta, California.
Here’s the ads for all three: 
If it were me I’d be happy to get into the Alpina club with the $40k model, although this year we’ve seen two in the high $30’s at CarMax. Enjoy.
Every online resource I’ve checked says the twin-turbo 4.4-liter V8 in this generation of the B7 was tuned by Alpina from the stock 445 go of the 750i to 540 hp and 538 foot-pounds of torque. CarMax has somehow managed to goof on all of these.
Do you think consequently they have underpriced them?!
Let me put it this way. If I did not know for a fact that my better half would instantly divorce me for doing it, I would sell my beloved Jaguar XJL and go buy the third B7 right now, this morning.
Give your better half the XJL and buy the 2012 B7 – it just dropped $1,000!
