Dave nailed it. The E30 M3 was released to the public for homologation purposes, BMW wanted to go touring car racing. Because of that, it was basically a race car for the street. As a race car, it was one of the best ever. I can't confirm it, but it's often said that the E30 M3 won more races than any other single car.

I've often heard them compared to an early 911. Raw, responsive, and directly connected to the driver. Very rare, special, and cool cars. In my opinion, they deserve to sell for more than the E36 M3.
