I would like to reproduce a Sports Car paint scheme for my new body, but I am having a hard time finding the correct decals for it. I am including a pic of the real car. Does anyone know where I might find a decal sheet for this car?
Thanks for any help you can provide!

I've never seen a sticker set for that particular scheme but many of those like the Yokohama and others can be canibalized out of other sticker sets. The ones you can't get draw out on some drawing program and print them out yourself using a inkjet printer on Repro film. Make sure to put a layer of clear tape on over the sticker once printed that way the ink doesn't rub off.

HPI's M3 comes with a decal set very similar to that. Looking at the older M3 car that you have posted, it looks like the hpi m3 decal set has everything on it. That is probably the easy route.

If you need more pictures of this car to do all the fine details just let me know and I'll post them here. I have detail pictures of the front, right, and left sides of this car. Currently working on a reproduction car myself.

I've decided to do the same reproduction. The 200mm HPI BMW 328i body has a full decal sheet that has many of those same decals. It's the closest thing that I've been able to find that has most of the decals. Still doesn't have them all, will take some hunting for the rest, but I'll keep you informaed with my findings. Thanx for the idea too! I'll post pictures when I finish it.
