First Wash in 4 Years BMW Z8 Alpina 1/555 Ever Made!
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 4 ก.ค. 2021
- This was a daily driven BMW Z8 Alpina 1 of 555 ever made and extremely rare. 4 or 5 years ago, the collector car sat in his driveway with a cover on it untouched. Recently a friend found and purchased the car with hopes of restoring it back to its original condition and selling it for a profit. My job is to detail and restore the BMW paint and interior disaster back to new, as this is the first wash and detail it has received in 4 years. For me this qualifies as a disaster vehicle restoration with a smelly, moldy, gross interior with cigarette ash, interior swirls on the black plastic trim, moss growing under the hood, and super deep scratches on the painted front fender, all on an incredibly rare BMW z8 Alpina which qualifies as a filthy full detail and first wash. There is a huge before and after satisfaction and gratifying reveal so watch until the very end. We performed a paint correction with full compound and polishing after we removed the damaged clear coat on the front driver side and passenger side fenders. Once done we applied AMMO Reflex Pro to the exterior for insane reflection and paint coating protection, Gelee Pro on the wheels all before the customer reveal at the end.

Imagine being so wealthy that you leave your Alpina outside for 5 years without a care in the world.
original owner probably sold it for pennies on the dollar as well seeing as the new owner immediately brought it to Ammo (for what was probably a $3-5k job) and is now going to immediately flip it.
@@roletnabih Jesus wow. Who needs crypto when youre almost 2x'ing on $150k investments pretty much within a week...
@@roletnabih No one is giving you a $100k discount for some dirt
@@marcd7332 Oh true but if previous owner just had it sitting for years outside and in that shape. Clearly money isn't issue for them.
@@roletnabih exactly
Talking about how rare the Z8 is as the camera pans past a 599 60th Anniversary 😆😆😆
Isn't it an Alonso edition?
it is alonso edition
No, That is the 599 GTB alonso editon. If you need info why they made a special edition of a 599 for a person called Alonso, ping me. Anyways. I am just waiting for that car to be cleaned on the channel!
@@mrn8032 does the alonso model have any relation to Fernando Alonso
@@georgiaasteri7663 It's the 60th anniversary of F1 edition, with livery that is similar to Alonso's F1 car, commenters above made the mistake equating the Alonso livery 60 anniversary of F1 as Alonso edition
As a Retired Detailer of over Thirty Years (from before detailing was as big as it is now) I'm totally blown away with what can be done now and what's available to detailers on both consumer (weekend detailers) and Commercial Detailers. Absolutely Fantastic Job. 👀
That means a lot to me thx for sharing. Hope you are well!
I don't really care if people have a lot of money and buy what they want with it...but something about people buying a car like *THIS* and just destroying it makes my blood boil. Thank you as always for bringing these things back to life.
Without sounding like I'm looking for sympathy--I'm not--we lost our son in 2020 and it's been a rough go. For some reason, your videos soothe my anxiety and really help me get through the tough days. It's his birthday today, so I just wanted to give you a shout out and thank you for producing some video magic that really, really helps me through my days. And my wife loves the way her car looks! So, a genuine THANK YOU.
"You want this car back? Lets see the new garage pal."
This owner might don't wanna sell it no more after this reveal.. (that Z8 Alpina is a rare gem)
That’s is absolutely beautiful
This is a stone cold beautiful car - I can't think of any car from the last 30 years that has such a classically beautiful design. It's in my dream garage for sure. And what an amazing job you did on it. Not sure what you charged for the job, but the owner is going to make so much more back in it's new condition!
Ferrari F50 dude
I like the alpina wheels but I think the regular version is better.
It's a beautiful car... but Aston Martin DB9 (2013) takes that cake.
german cobra....
@@micglou DBS for me.
This car is a masterclass of design, i still remember when i saw for the first time and feel in love, by the time it was already more than a decade old, still one of the most beatiful cars ever made.
who would treat such car like this in the first place. the z8 design is one of a kind fusion between old and modern, which makes it insanely iconic beyond any doubt.
Absolute masterpiece of a car. I wish BMW would go back to a simpler and more elegant design such as this; as compared to the gaping cocaine-nostril monstrosities they produce now.
Blame the Chinese market for that. They have 0 taste and companies now cater to that market.
@@Maartwo Yep, new Mercedes and bmws are getting so ugly.
agreed, bmw looked at spongebob's teeth and said yes we will have some of that.
@@Maartwo I blame the BMW. They could've made the grille as optional tick box, as they do with other non essential features.
it’s a matter of time before a company like renault or any other generic car brand to follow suit
The transformation is phenomenal! Also love to see the customer appreciate the work!
I’ve seen one of these parked outside a house here on Long Island for years and I’ve always wondered what the story was... I wonder if it’s the same car
Probably is lol
has to be, these are rare af
Update - Going to take the drive this afternoon to see if my hunch was right. Not sure if what I had seen was an Alpina or not but I’ll see if the Z8 is still there in the neighborhood I saw it in
@@marybetheby5184 lol speaking from prior knowledge or did I miss something in the video?
Imagine??
Out of the channels I watch you're detailing videos are the best. Pan has the best products and tool videos and the auto pros in Chicago is a good mix of both. But I could seriously sit and watch your detailing restoration videos for HOURS
You CRUSHED this one! Looks 1 million times better!
That is such a classic! Glad to see you caring for one!
Couldn't' agree more!! How could this beautiful car be left sooooo neglected... wow. Glad to see it being bought back to life.... it needs to be driven!!
Former employer had one of those. Loved looking at that car. Such beautiful lines.
Jaw dropping transformation as usual, well done!
Another amazing transformation by you and Dan! Great job as always!!!
Mr. Kosilla, I love how you use your professionalism and expertise to create a thoughtful, individualized treatment plan for each vehicle just as though that vehicle was your own.
You gave this car a second chance!!!! Nice work as always!
Another amazing transformation by Larry at Ammo NYC. It always bums me out to see people let such cool cars sit and rot!
That is so awesome! That black paint on BMW cars does seem soft. I have done a couple of them and struggled with haze here and there with normal techniques. I had to change my pad and compound and just like you did, use less products and also soften up on my pressure on the polisher a bit. You do awesome work! I use these videos as a model of how I want my dream detailing shop to be.
Thanks Larry, this has been one of my favorites so far
The best feeling in the world is having a customer genuinely appreciate the hard work that’s gone into a car that you’ve detailed
What a transformation that is over the years there’s been so many beautiful / rare vehicles but that’s up there for me wow 😍
Larry, glad to see that there are areas of the car that were polished by hand. No matter how micro a micro polisher can be, it's never a substitute for fingers.👌
Larry....You never fail to amaze us...with just doing what you do ...The pursuit of perfection..!...As always...Well done..!
One of the most beautiful BMWs ever made.. Love the Z8
I'm no BMW fan but that is a bad-ass car. Great work, Larry, and as always, thanks for bringing us along!!
Amazing work as always. I can't get enough of these videos.
Really cool when the owner makes an appearance and we get to share in their reaction. Nice work!
The Z8 is one of my favorite BMW’s. Beautiful car.
Great Job Larry !! the before and after is ridiculous !! wow
What a fantastic turnaround Larry, how could someone neglect such a rare car. Nice to see the new owner really happy with the transformation.
Right on, Larry. World-class work as always.
Love these cars. Job well done.
Wow, what a great car! And a great costumer’s reaction. As always, good job.
Another happy customer. Good job Larry!
I think ever since I was a kid this was my favorite alpina car ever made. Still love it!
Absolutely Amazing.
You do Great Work!
Great content Larry. Thanks for sharing.
thanks for the video as always Larry!!!
I love the hard work that goes into all these nice cars to make em look so beautiful and shiny in the end. Also that Ferrari in the video kept catching my eye
Once again it takes a subject matter expert to bring a car like that back from disaster. Great job!
Always so awesome to watch you work, and learning a lot. Super cool, thanks.
Wow stunning Larry. So satisfying to see the results.
I just started watching you guys again. Congrats on 1M subs!
I took a look at the photos of the car on the Rapley Classic Car website. Wow! What a great car and what a fantastic job Larry did bringing this car back. It looks brand new.
I need to be so rich that I can just leave my rare car outside for years & just forget about it, lol.
Awesome work as always.
Last time I was this early, the car still hadn't been discovered in the barn.
The rock chip paint repair syringe method blew my mind! I’m going to try that when I need to do that next.
Such a beautiful car!!! Good job as always!!!
Beautiful work. One of my favorite cars too
Wow. You are truly a professional. Thanks.
I just ordered my first AMMO products yesterday; specifically the Reflex Pro and Skin. I’m thrilled to try them out on my vehicles!
I got terrified Reflex Pro as well. I plan on correcting the paint on my personal vehicle on Sunday. It'll be a great marketing strategy for sure!
Definitely one of the most beautiful cars ever
Love the fact that it was driven and really enjoyed...
Awesome work and transformation! What a car.
Beautiful piece of art… great job.
Such a beautiful and rare car
Always a blast to watch the GOAT at work
this was already my dream car, ever since as a kid but man this one is a gem 💎
Btw in 2012 I photographed and drove one of these for my job at Penske Auto Group. At the time I thought this thing is cool but didn’t grab my attention. Now I understand why it’s so unique. Beautiful. Glad I had that experience even if I didn’t fully appreciate it at the time
Watching cars being cleaned and actually enjoying it - not sure 2021 can get any more stranger.
Such a beautiful car the z8. Back when beemers had character in their design
Beautiful, very well done 😍😍😍
Amazing job as always!
Outstanding as always Larry👍🇦🇺
Job well done on this super rear car. Great video
Hey Larry! Best videos out there! Classy!
I would drive this car everyday without question if they weren't now worth $250k. I missed the opportunity earlier in the depreciation curve, what a shame! Thanks for the sharing the restoration.
So much manual hard work goes to make the car shiny ++respect for your hardwork
Great work as always. Now looks as it should.
AMMO at it again! great detail, super beautiful car!
Well done, hope it is cared for better in the future. Stunning car.
Best looking BMW ever made, defining what "timeless" design really means here.
Thanks for another great video!
you are an artist!!
Gr8 skill as usual.. the car is back to life .
Such a lovely car, nice job
Honestly I love seeing expensive dirty cars. It means someone was driving it and enjoying it. Though if it was mine it would have been in a garage. Awesome job!
Awesome job on that car. How anyone can leave something so fantastic just sitting out in weather baffles me.
Smashed the thumbs up before watching. This is going to be good.
I remember the first time I saw a Z8 in person really cool cars.
I've seen one Z8 coming from the bay area. Northern California I was in awe
Gorgeous car. Well done.
That is one awesome job you did you’re a perfectionist I love watching your show I get tips how to clean and wash my truck I have a Ford F150 2018 which is perfect I keep it perfect and wash it three times a week
Great job on this one! It astounds me that someone can have such a beautiful, and rare, car and not look after it…
Never disappointed!! 🔥🔥
Been following for about 10 months now, watched around 50 videos and have appreciated all. A question to Larry and/or those who follow more closely than me: How does a guy who built the business doing the heavy lifting, but now has more responsibilities as a manager, leader, marketing face, etc., still have the time to roll up his sleeves and do, forgive me, the grunt work of these jobs? It’s actually quite inspiring.
I've read that he only trusts himself to do the work to the same level of care and that he genuinely enjoys the work.
Amazing work
You did amazing on this car man! Awesome work!
Thanks
Great job! 👍
Great video, and great song too!!!❤🤘
I drove one of these at bmw when I worked in service. Beautiful inside, amazing just to start the car and being start a little different with the key.
Man, I love your videos
I love these kind of details 👌🏽❤😍
Very cool! I got to see a silver Alpina up close YEARS ago.
