In 1965 our father Burkard Bovensiepen founded ALPINA, a company which committed itself passionately to the development
and production of extraordinary automobiles. Automobiles for connoisseurs that feature luxurious and comfortable interiors,
superior driving performance and a subtle, sporty exterior. Elegant understatement has always characterised our products,
a philosophy that remains unchanged to this day.
For 50 years ALPINA has been a small, individual actor in the increasingly ubiquitous automotive world. Both on the
road and on the race track, BMW ALPINA automobiles have repeatedly garnered sensational results.
Special limited edition models from ALPINA always enjoy great popularity. The first to have done
so were the B7 S Turbo models from 1981 with altogether 90 examples. The 3.5 litre 6-cylinder
turbo engine with 330 hp provided unparalleled performance while the newly introduced exclusive paint finishes ALPINA Blue and Green remain a popular option to this day. Like other
special limited edition models that followed suit, the B7 S Turbo models are now legendary
collector cars.
In light of this tradition it is a great pleasure to announce the exclusive EDITION 50.
Based on the BMW ALPINA B5 Bi-Turbo and B6 Bi-Turbo and strictly limited
to fifty examples of each, the EDITION 50 combines heritage with state-ofthe-art technology.

HI GH PE R FOR MANCE BRAKE SYSTEM
In addition to the new brake system with Blue callipers an
optional high performance brake system for the front axle is
available. Featuring 4-piston fixed callipers from Brembo with
395 mm discs and high temperature resistant pads, it offers
very engaged drivers exceptional fading stability.
LI GHTWEI G H T FOR G E D WHEELS
The strictly ‘form follows function’ design combines the
heritage of the ALPINA CLASSIC wheel with unique and
distinguishing side-cuts on each spoke. This results in a
total weight saving of 15.6 kg despite the wheels having
increased in width by half an inch to now measure 9 x 20“ front
and 10 x 20“ rear.

HERITAGE INTERIOR
Black seats combined with seat and backrest centres in
Forest Green with chequered Yellow/Black stitching – this
exclusive interior design is reminiscent of the legendary
B7 S Turbo Coupé upholstery from 1982. This handcrafted
interior is available as an option on the basis of an ALPINA
LAVALINA upholstery.
PIANO BLACK INTER IOR TR IM
Stylish ALPINA piano black interior trim with EDITION 50
lettering and a personal signature by Burkard Bovensiepen,
the founder of the company in 1965, are an integral part of
every EDITION 50 interior.
FINE D ETAILS
The EDITION 50 models are also distinguishable by additional details including stainless steel door sill finishers with
EDITION 50 lettering. The typical ALPINA metal emblems
in the seatbacks and floor mats are finished in silver with
an engraving showing the years 1965 – 2015 in reference
to ALPINA’s 50th Anniversary. Strictly limited to 50 vehicles,
the production number of each BMW ALPINA B5 Bi-Turbo
EDITION 50 is shown on the production plaque and on the
reverse of the key ring.
DECO - SET
In subtle Blue or Green matt with EDITION 50 lettering, exclusive to this limited edition. Especially when applied
colour-on-colour these special Deco-Sets combine heritage elements with an elegant, restrained appearance.
LI GHTWEIG H T TITANIUM EX H AUST
The light-weight exhaust system developed in cooperation
with Akrapovič is made entirely of high-strength titanium
– resulting in a weight reduction of 17 kg compared to the
use of stainless steel. The high-tech construction ensures a
maximum pipe diameter over the entire length of the system to
reduce back pressure. Featuring an active exhaust valve, the
system together with the powerful Bi-Turbo engine produces
a powerful V8 soundscape which is emitted through twin
tailpipes with carbon trim.

ALPINA RECYCLING
Your BMW ALPINA is part of an all-embracing recycling concept. Recycling demands are already considered early in the development process of a
BMW ALPINA. An example of this is in the selection of materials – they are chosen, such that they are environmentally friendly and easily recyclable,
using a minimum of resources to do so. Every BMW ALPINA is built so that it is easily and cost-effectively recyclable at the end of its useable life span.
All this occurs in close co-operation between BMW and ALPINA. BMW Group have built a European-wide redemption and recycling infrastructure,
and require high quality and environmental standards. For return of your automobile for the purposes of recycling, please contact your BMW ALPINA
partner. They are ready to help. For further information about recycling firms and redemption locations, please see www.bmw.com
The models in this brochure may show the specification for the German market (LHD version). In part, they include optional equipment and accessories
not fitted as standard. For precise information on model features and equipment, please contact your ALPINA dealer or importer.
