Alpina created one variant for the E65 BMW 7 Series, the B7. Introduced in 2004, the car re-introduced a famous name in Alpina history, B7. While in the past, B7 cars were based on the 5 Series and 6 Series, this new generation of B7 was built exclusively using 7 Series cars. The E65 Alpina B7 was offered in both short and long wheelbase versions.
