It's an E21 3er, which technically was the first generation 3 series. Production ran from 1976 through 1983. It's powered by the M10 four cylinder, and it was replaced for model year '84 with the E30 chassis.

I had an '83 320i for a very short time. The E30 is superior to it in every way imaginable. It's hard to say specifically what year that car is, but you get the idea.

It's special in the sense that it's a really clean E21, since most of them are either rotting in a yard somewhere or beat down into oblivion. Other than that it's a run of the mill 320i that we got in the US. You'll see some grey market 323i cars from time to time, they're a bit more rare.
