Unfortunately E30 M3s were all LHD. There is at least 1 lookalike in Singapore, but I believe it's got an auto transmission.
In all fairness, of the 5 photos of the 190E posted above, only the 3 that look like they come from a factory brochure are actually representative of the car. In the photos of someone's car under a porch, it just looks wrong. The bodykit shouldn't be all colour-coded and the car's got the wrong wheels (AMGs need to be bigger, I think).
The actual car looks very discreet in the metal (except for the swansong Evolution models but that's another story), which was and is part of the attraction.
I know of a pearl black 2.3-16 here that used to belong to a friend of a friend until quite recently. It was in pretty good shape, I think.

hi hi...
the car under a porch actually belonged to my old man...
the original colour and rims was like the 1st pic which was metallic black...together with the rims which had a lot of holes in it...no doubt it was lovely...
he loved the car so much he renewed the COE...but then resprayed and changed the rims for easier maintainence... -_-

Re: Not a BMW... but...wow... Mercedes 190E 2.3-16V
hey hey...no apologies...i felt e same way too...lol...didnt know what was an AMG then...it was juz ease of use...maintainence...after about 10 years after being imported from the UK...material fatigue really started to set in...the interior...the bodykit...till it conked out finally a few years ago...
it was a hell of a good car..served him well on the trunk roads of Malaysia as the NS highway was being built...overtaking trucks trailers...sights of cows..monkeys...small villages...damm it was interesting as a city kid...and really 'spectacular' accidents...
till now it is a sought after car in Europe...featured on magazines, WCF...just too bad in SG its just too costly to keep...

Your dad's very lucky to have had this car, but I still think it needs bigger wheels if it's an AGM pattern.
