  • Many of the big players in online commerce use automated inventory systems to value, price and track their inventory. What happens when they screw up? Several months ago, VINWiki had a video that showed where CarMax made a massive mistake on their inventory. See that video here:
    • CarMax had NO IDEA wha...
    Well, after watching that, I kept my eyes on CarMax and Carvana - with some alerts and searches. Here's the mistake that is similar to the VINWiki mistake.
    In this episode, you'll get a look at the Carvana mistake of almost $10,000 on this 2012 Alpina B7. The automated pricing at Carvana priced this as a "typical" 2012 BMW LWB X-Drive.
    We will walk through the Monroney original window sticker, the CARFAX and more. And you can follow this journey as we arbitrage the price on this BMW F02 Alpina B7.
    The Alpina B7 is a limited production full sized sedan from 2011-2015 . It has a special version of the N63 twin-turbo V8. It runs with 500 horsepower and 516 foot-pounds of torque. It runs 0-60 in under 4.8 seconds with a top speed limited to 174 mph.
    Only 1,740 B7 Alpinas were sold in the US from 2011-2015. This is one of them.

    That's a steal sir!!! I bought my B7 back in 2020, during the beginning of the covid outbreak for 23k. And it had 63k miles on it. It was a must to buy before anybody else gotten to it.

    No alpina Batch under the I drive controller, so Not a Alpina.

    Alpina is owned by BMW. Alpina sold it. Motor, wheels and Suspension are Build on the Cars in Munich. The Spoilers and intererior in the old Alpina Factory by Alpina employees

    Super low profile tires and NY roads 😂 broken belt and bubbles, those tires are known for it. Been looking at a 13+ with N63TU for a road tripper

      I sold the car and didn't realize until the new buyer had it that the 19" wheel had cracked as well. Local tire shop said bead was leaking. Nope...Cost me $1000 to make it right.

      Correct. I did a separate video explaining my theory why.

      that wheels are for those customers living in cold climate since 21” is impractical in the snow . Alpina offered two types of wheels in 21” which often fitted on B7 then 20” which you sees on here.

      Original option for the car. Alpina Dynamic D01 19 inch. I think they look better on the smaller models. Alpina B3 and certainly nothing looks better on the Alpina Roadster.
