Hahahha, I agree, but this one was too good to just pass it on with out checking it out. However we (Mark, Peter, Mario and I) made an appointment to see the car out of curiosity yesterday.
The H35 looks decent and apparently it’s an authentic car. But the exterior and engine bay was a little rough and need some dent removal and cleaning up to make it look acceptable. Interior was good and need some attention, according to the owner he hasn’t done any maintenance on the car and everything is as is since he imported the H35 on 2000. so for whoever that may be interested to buy this car there will be some expense to making sure that the car exterior, interior and mechanical are up to date.

Thanks for the update AlpinaMan.

What are your thoughts on Hartge in general? I believe they are also considered a manufacturer, like Alpina. How do their products compare though? Are they as developed as Alpina?

Thanks Stirling,

Hartge almost did followed the same route as Alpina but started late 70

Are Alpinas sold at BMW dealers around the world, or just the new B7 in North America? I thought they had their own dealers?

Does Hartge sell through dealers or do you buy directly from the factory?

Well, As far as I know Alpina will take orders from main location at Buchloe as well as dealers through out man cities in Germany, but in country like England and because of their right hand drive situation, Alpina only shipp parts, technical support and training that is requierd to assemble their product on BMW that already have right hand set up though a dealer called Sytner BMW. Obviosly Alpina didn’t have any dealer in North America till recent years that Alpina sold limited amount of B7s (90 in Canada) in Canada and US that agin they were sold through North American BMW dealers.

As for Hartge, I believe Hartge was taking orders at their own location and certified and reputable car dealers/shop high performance places through out .

From the Hartge site: "All products are available worldwide through HARTGE direct sale or our authorized dealer. If you need any assistance to find your authorized dealer HARTGE, please do not hesitate to contact our sales team."

There's no listing of authorized dealers on their site though. In the early 80's, Performance Plus Inc. in Dania, Florida was an authorized dealer. I'm not sure if they're still around or not.

The Alpina Worldwide link shows no dealerships in North America. Does that mean sales go through the BMW dealer network?
