Proefi Features on this car:
Line Lock
2-step
NOS control
NOS bottle open/close plus safety features
Traction Control
Launch Control
E85 flex fuel
Boost Control
Plus all the engine safety features you could want. It also monitors EGTs, Exhaust back pressure, Oil Pressure, and Fuel Pressure to name a few.

I am sure most are aware that this is one of the fastest if not still the fastest (don't keep up on that) e46 m3 in the US with a 1/4 mile time of 10.54 and a best trap of 141+mph. I also recently ran a verified 5.63 second 60-130. Anyone looking for big power could install a larger turbo and 2150cc injectors and basically the sky is the limit. There are no bottle necks with the Saad setup. Personally, I wouldn't change a thing though.

The good:
It is all good. The car is amazing.

The bad:
Rear trunk lid has scratches.
Drivers side rear fender well shows a few scrapes from rolling that fender to fit tires.

There are probably more items that I am forgetting. This car is truly one of a kind. It is completely done and done right, and no expense was spared in the build. It made 890whp on a mustang dyno at 30psi, yet can be driven all day in any type of conditions without issue. I have driven it in rush hour traffic in 90 degree temps without a problem and then also driven it in 30 degree temps drama free. Never a problem. Plus, with the Proefi you are able to run pump gas or e85 without switching any maps or running the tank dry, just pump and run and the Proefi will calibrate for you. It is an unbelievable car to drive. I have owned a few turbo m3s and this is the best of the best for sure.

Most that know me know that I have a serious short attention span with cars and thus they don't stick around for long. Right now I am craving a GT-R and that is the only reason for the sale. I honestly don't think the GT-R will provide the smile-o-meter factor that this car does, but need to get it out of my system. No lowballers and no tire kickers. Obviously no need or rush to sell. Any questions, please shoot me an email. Thanks








Yes it does still have SMG paddles on the steering wheel. The left paddle controls line lock and the right is for burnout.

 

what a beast

 

damn... awesome. i never even heard of saad racing before i though it was just HPF wiht the big power m3's .

what does the car rev out to ? and do you have any vids of of the car?

 

The add says 6 MT but there are paddles on the wheel? SMG or manual?

 

Thanks! It is a lot of fun.

Thanks! It revs to 8400rpm, I believe. I don't have any videos processed yet, but here are a couple videos from when Jason owned it. I will be posting a few videos of some short pulls this weekend.





It might be kind of difficult to see I guess, but underneath the steering wheel picture I explain the paddles.....Yes it does still have SMG paddles on the steering wheel. The left paddle controls line lock and the right is for burnout.

Yes.
