Yup looks like they made it between '86 and '92. 4 cyl 2.3L with 192 bhp.
 
Were there any of those years BMW that looked like the M3? Meaning coupe, body style, and engine. I may want to get one and it would probably be cheaper than an actual M3.
 
yep that is a bmw e30 just not a m3, an e30 m3 got wide fenders front and back

It's probably a 318iS. "The poor man's M3."
 
Yeah, definitely not an M3, the whole body on the E30 M3 was completely different to the other 3-series models. Given that in the picture it has only one exhaust tip, it is most like a 318i/is, because the 325i/is/e all had dual exhaust tips as stock. Could be wrong though obviously, wouldn't just judge it based on the exhaust tips, but it is almost certainly not an M3. Just like the guys who put M badges all over their 525 to make it seem more awesome :p. Nice car though, tastefully done. I always liked the E30, was interested in them before I got my DSM, but couldn't find any in halfway decent shape for a reasonable price. They are known to make really awesome budget racers, and are just beautiful cars IMO.
