I agree with some of the others that this car looks like a mix of body parts. Tail lights were round until '73, I think, and on the early cars the grills were not black, wheels are from, I think maybe, a first-gen 320i - what's that, an E9, maybe? Also the chrome strips around the belt line have been removed. Would be interesting to know what's under the hood, and whether a 5-speed has been transplanted in.

A couple of good sites for checking these cars out - if you haven't already found them, are 2002 AD and BMW 2002 FAQ.

From what I can tell, the prices on these things can be all over the map. It's possible to find them for SC or even Carrera kinds of money. I think that's ambitious, but that's just me. Good luck with it. They're cool little cars, but nowhere nearly as well engineered, or as solid, as our P-cars.
