Grade 4 E38 B12 - Can-Am Alpina Club

If you were interested in the car and wanted to bid on it would you be able to find out the reserve price ahead of time?

Thanks for the link, I am quite familiar with RUBMW. If you add /eng to the end it translates it for you. However they made it so you need an account to run VINs now. Is it just my computer or is the picture of the auction sheet super tiny? I cant read anything on it.

The only way you can know what the reserve is if the seller's starting price is really high or if you know the seller. Otherwise, there is no way to tell. Or at least I don't believe so.

Good to know. I emailed Scott at JCD and i'm waiting to hear back from him. I showed my neighbor the picures of this one and hes now quite interested in purchasing one.

I dont think their is a B12 in Canada yet is their?

I'd be surprised if there wasn't one in Canada already. Most people aren't on the forums. I thought I had the first B8 in Canada until I stumbled across a shop that had some documentation on refurbishing one they brought in.

Ya that makes sense. Theirs a lot more Alpina's in the US then I thought there was as well. Ive been seeing more then I ever thought were down there.
