Here's something interesting. Not Craigslist, but interesting nonetheless. The automatic kills it for me with a price over $20k,
1987 BMW E30 Alpina C2 2.5 JDM 93k 2.5 1 of 74 Alpine White/Black
Up for sale is this very rare 1987 E30 BMW Alpina C2 2.5. This Alpina is a JDM car that was imported to the US a couple years ago. 1 of only 74 cars made, this is car number 36. It is fitted with an automatic transmission, as many were, but fortunately a 5-speed swap is incredibly easy on this E30's. This car has a number of upgrades done by a previous owner including the leather wrapped dash with Alpina color stitching, e-code headlights with HID kit, and a few other Alpina touches. This C2 runs and drives very well, and has been well maintained although there isn't much paperwork that came with the car when it was brought over. The stickers for the timing belt services are are the passenger front strut tower which is nice. The current owner is a local collector and is thinning out his garage (Be sure to keep an eye out for his 89' Alpina B10 3.5) There are a few items that aren't currently working on the car. They include the gas gauge, temp gauge, and the sound system. The radio power open, but won't pick up a station. The following DO work as they should...power windows, sunroof, AC, tach, speedometer, odometer, all exterior lights, wipers, etc. Extremely clean car with no signs of any accident damage in it's past.

I was surprised no one else had posted this sooner.
There's a lot of unanswered questions about that car..
It was sold by Mendel's Garage a year or two ago for about $500 less then the BIN on eBay.
I was really interested in it and actually pitched a best offer. Course, I also asked for a few key things I would need to authenticate it. 2 weeks later, still waiting.
There's nothing proving it's even got an Alpina motor in it, the hand stamped Alpina VIN tag is terrible looking, and wrong. I'd buy it just for the real Alpina parts (seats, spoiler, wheels, steering wheel..etc.) and that's it. If there was any documentation or photographic proof it left Buchloe or was a Synter conversion then maybe I would go higher then my offer...
