If it has an MT and no sunroof then it's the unicorn E36 :)

Neat-o E36 sedan info from an owner (can't believe it weighs exactly the same as the coupe!):

The cars are virtually identical in all respects. The sedan is an inch taller (53.7" vs 52.6") and about half an inch narrower (66.9" vs 67.3"). They weigh exactly the same, 3175 lbs, and have the same track width (56"), overall length (174.5") and wheelbase (106.7").

I actually have one of each at the moment but if I could only have one, it would be the sedan! They drive identically to each other but the sedan has more useable interior space and a very user friendly backseat.

Also, I MUCH prefer the window mechanisms in the sedan! The doors have actual window frames so the windows don't have to drop every time you open the door. It sounds minor but I've had to fix my window regulators/switches in the coupe several times but I've never had to touch the ones in the sedan. I have to think the constant going up and down a half inch every time you open the door puts more wear and tear on them.
