hot

x2 i love that color, reminds me of samba green.

SEX ON WHEELS…that green is hot…and i hate greens

2 years and counting…

WOWZA!!!

I could use a smoke after looking at those pictures… anyone else care to join me?

I don’t think RUF has every disappointed me with what they do.

here’s the faster…RT12

RUF>*

:tif: looks really hot, probly handles amazing, but I’m not impressed with the power numbers for a 997 with a blower. Less torque than my stock GTO and only 30 more bhp than a stock vette or cobra

That white RT12, the owner is on 6SpeedOnline. I like the RUF cars, I just hate their 997 bumper treatment.

yeah…and?

whatever the actual torque/hp #'s are, it certainly seems to have as much acceleration and top speed as you might be able to put into a MR platform that small

love the color :tup:

3.6 LITER BOXTER 6 YO…i think…if its just a bolt-on blower form RUF…which i have no idea what they do i assume its more than a bolt on process for them…but if its not thats a high compression motor running on low boost…but again…if RUF did it they prolly reworked the internals

RR

And…its probably really expensive for those type of numbers? like, over 100k expensive.

I dont know, maybe im just a porsche hater because the last 20 years of 911’s look the same to me :gotme:

IB4 build quality debate

I’d have a lot of sex with it.

And I can build a 92 civic hatch with 800 HP with 1/3 the money your GTO costs and smoke it…

i think Joe might have a point. i mean i have never heard of a car being any good at all with less horespower or peak tq than a GTO. that or i might just be too lazy to compile a list that long :slight_smile:

whether the peak numbers impress or not, that car is smooth, absolutely daily drivable if you have the money and balls, and without a doubt can be taken to a track and SPANK lotsa cars that might show up, including maybe some other race prepped cars. ceteris paribus.

regardless though, that car is hot, i have a spot in my heart for RUFs, and after i make my millions and buy a helicopter, there will be one of those in my stables as well.

also RUF 997’s wayyyyyy better than 996. i hope not too many 997 chassis are built
