That poor thing is hideous. I do love that the guy says the thing will do 205 mph! I don't think even a REAL B10-biturbo can do that, my turbocharged kawasaki bike certainly can't!

Edit.. yes he does have something to hide... an M20 sorry M20 guys :p

Bid with confidence.

My favorite features:


I started by taking the front nose off the car and sprayed the engine bay black.I then put a euro 3.5 liter alpina motor in with titanium pistons,sleeves, and many other parts.I went right to the drive train and suspension and went to the extreme.I put in a brand new WOJIK front end, Salinni spindles, and WOJIK shocks and struts.All new brake lines and all.brake lines, calipers, lines, rotors, and pads are new.

The body kit was custom made in Poland by my cousin Peter, it cost me 6 months and 3,500 to make.

This car is fffffaaaaaasssssttttt, and I mean that so If you are a young buyer please do not joy ride with this car.This car is for someone who likes speed when needed but overall is a luxery sedan.

I had no idea we could get such lovely seat covers.

I bought this car for my wife from a Lamborgini dealership in Staten Island N.Y. but she said the car was to fast.I in turn decided to build myself a plane with wheels.

Well then, that explains the wing...!

What an ugly car - that paint looks awful if you take a close look at the pictures. Patchy & cloudy everywhere. Probably sprayed with a Kirby vacuum cleaner. Does anyone here mind if I say the word 'bollocks' to this:-

The top speed on this perticular car is 205 MPH and I drove it myself on the salt flats.

I think he's been eating some dodgy mushrooms. Is he a member of this forum?

I'm sure some yout from CT drove it all the way across the US, ran it on the Salt Flats, then drove it back.

I sent him this message on e-bay:

"I think this is a fraud. Junk parts, no proof of performance. No engine shots. Nothing looks special"


And this is his response:

"then don't bid.I'm a millionaire, I do not have to cheat people.And look at it like this,you looked so there must be something interesting".

Of course I was baiting him a bit.

He's so rich that he lives in East Haven, in that neighborhood.

Does anyone else find it particularly funny that he claims the block was sleeved?

And that he spent 23 grand on the car, supposedly something on internal engine upgrades, yet kept the ZedF?

Oh, and to make matters all the worse, the car had 120k on it in 2001. Oops.

P.S. Anyone want to have a bidding war and get this thing to go for something ridiculous...30, 40k?

P.P.S. Another fun thing about this car. Remember how the auction states that the engine bay was painted black? The car was originally black.

I do. Antrieb is top bidder at $2k, lol.


here's his response to my question of "where are the engine pictures? what kind of turbo set up do you have? do you even know what kind of turbos the authentic Alpina is running?"




I never put the engine photos on because if the auction does not meet my needs,then the turbos will be removed from the car along with the computer.I only say this because I have been jerked around by ebayers before.But if you are serious, send my your yahoo email and I will email the photos direct.thanks

Did you catch the Camaro SS intake on the Hood? Personally I like the spray painted fender and the Alpina Badge on the trunk. And what the hell is WOJIK? Sounds like a bunch of BS to me.

Some kind of millionaire, look at that shitty house, and would a millionaire really care about the turbos?

If you put 23k in a car would you not redo the interior? Or perhaps make the hood scoop real? If you were doing the custom exhaust on a car wouldn't you make it fit nice and neatly out the back of your custom bumper? Do those wheels really have a 6 inch offset? Doesn't look like it to me.

And finally, don't you think a millionaire would use a spell checker or at least know how to spell PARTICULAR words correctly.

Hope thats EXTREME enough for that mouth-breather.
