1990 BMW M5 Alpina B10 Description

HISTORY The Alpina B10 Bi-Turbo was first introduced at the 1989 Geneva auto show, based on the popular and very successful E34 535i. At the time It was the fastest car Alpina ever built and it remains the second fastest after the B12 5.7 Coupe. The extremely smooth and refined inline-6 engine, coupled with twin Garrett T25 turbo chargers that work together to practically eliminate turbo lag, provide over 100 horsepower per litre. A 5-speed manual transmission especially developed by Getrag for the B10 transmits the powers to the 17 inch Alpina wheels while Lucas-Girling four pot fixed caliper brakes, 332mm ventilated brake discs and of course a ABS system help slow this mighty beast. Other modifications performed by Alpina include new Mahle pistons, new valves and camshafts, new intake and exhaust systems, an intercooler for the turbochargers and standard exterior trims including front and rear spoilers. The interior is also updated with Recaro sport seats, a hand-stitched leather steering wheel by Momo and a whole bunch of dials including everything from boost pressure to oil temperature. Only 507Bi-Turbos were built in total and the last ever produced rolled out of the plant in March 1994. The Bi-Turbo is extremely quick and should not be under-estimated by any BMW M5 owners.

Based on theE34 535iand developed at a cost of $3.2 million, the B10 BiTurbo was introduced at theGeneva Motor Showin March 1989.

To build each B10 BiTurbo powerunit Alpina dismantled aBMW M30engine, replaced the stock pistons with forgedMahleunits, installed two Garrett T25 water-cooled turbochargers, and added a Bosch variable boost control with range of 0.4-0.8 bar, adjustable from the driver's seat. Additional modifications helped raise the horsepower of the stock M30 engine from 155kW/208hp at 5700 rpm and 305 Nm/225lb-ft at 4000 rpm to 265kW/360hp at 6000 rpm and 520Nm/384lb-ft at 4000 rpm. AGetrag290 5-speed manual transmission was specified to handle the power.

Modifications to the suspension included Alpina-spec springs and anti-roll bars. Bilstein shocks were used on front and automatic-load levelling units by Fictel & Sachs were used in the rear. Front rotors were large 13.1-inch discs from UK-based Lucas Girling, bigger even than the 12.8-inch pieces found on the E34 M5.

The Alpina claimed a 0–100km/h time of 5.6 sec and a top speed over 290km/h]putting it in the same league as aFerrari Testarossa. In the September 1991 issue ofRoad & TrackPaul Frèrewrote: “For me this is the car … I think this is the best 4-door in the world.”Despite a base price tag of 146,800 DM, nearly twice the price of an E34 M5, the B10 Biturbo became the best-selling single model in Alpina history up until that point. The six year production run beginning in 1989 ended in August 1994 with only 507 examples produced.
