This high performance sports car is the perfect combination of high end performance and every day use.** Biturbo engines show to be the platform for the next evolutionary step in RUF engine technology. Three different performance steps are available: 530 bhp, 560 bhp and 650 bhp. The 650 bhp 3.8 liter engine is of a new construction, which sets a new benchmark in performance and torque. 2WD is standard but 4WD is available on request. The aerodynamic characteristics of the car are improved with RUF-developed front - and rear bumpers, rear spoiler and side mirrors. The air intakes for the intercoolers are integrated in the wider rear fenders. The RUF Rt 12 is launched with the latest evolution of the RUF 5-spoke alloy wheels in a striking 19" design at the front axle and 20" at the rear axle. The brake system has big drilled, ventilated discs and fixed light alloy monobloc callipers. The suspension is engineered for a maximum speed of more than 219 mph. Available as an option is a special RUF sports suspension, which can be lifted hydraulically into a 50 millimetre higher position in order to get more ground clearance for easier parking and garage entrances. The interior of the Rt 12 has well known RUF-functionalism. Bucket seats and a handy sports steering wheel provide the best ergonomics for a sporty and non tiring drive. RUF instrumentation with traditional green typeface and “Pepita” cloth in the middle of the bucket seats brings the flair of the 50s and 60s sports cars into a modern \*\*\*\*pit. Aluminium parts and details painted in the body colour provide the mix of classic and modern. The Rturbo is also available with the latest version of the RUF Integrated Roll Cage (IRC) - leather / alcantara» ![http://www.rs6.com/pics/Various/RUF-Sept-105.JPG](http://www.rs6.com/pics/Various/RUF-Sept-105.JPG) **Rt 12 Turbo 05 Technical Specifications** **Engine:** Water-cooled 6-cylinder Boxer 8 main bearing crankshaft Double overhead camshafts per cylinder bank 4 valves per cylinder – hydraulically actuated with variable valve timing Water-cooled with three radiators and a water-oil heat exchanger Dry sump lubrication system with separate oil tank Electronic Bosch fuel injection Twin KKK turbochargers with integrated wastegates and 3-way catalytic converters Bore x Stroke of 100.0 mm x 76.4 mm Oil capacity (including filter) of 12 litres Water capacity of 22 litres Fuel requirement of premium unleaded 98 ROZ Performance: 560 bhp, maximum torque 790 Nm **Options:** 530 bhp, maximum torque 750 Nm 650 bhp, maximum torque 870 Nm **Transmission:** Rear wheel drive (Four wheel drive is an optional extra) Six-speed manual with customer-specified gear ratios **Chassis:** RUF sports suspension: fully adjustable in ride height and stiffness Option: RUF sports suspension, hydraulically adjustable in height up to 50 millimeters RUF alloy wheels: front 9” x 19” with 255/35 ZR 19 Pirelli tires rear 12.5” x 20” with 345/25 ZR 20 Pirelli tires **Brakes:** Front and rear cross-drilled, inner ventilated discs ABS-System Monobloc-Aluminium-Calipers **Body:** Electrically variable RUF rear spoiler RUF front spoiler RUF side mirrors RUF widened rear fenders with integrated intercooler air intakes **Interior:** ![http://www.rs6.com/pics/Various/RUF-Sept-111.JPG](http://www.rs6.com/pics/Various/RUF-Sept-111.JPG) RUF instrumentation RUF 3 spoke leather steering wheel with air bag RUF sport bucket seats **Performance:** Top speed more than 219 mph (subject to gear ratios / engine output choice) 0 – 100 km/h in 3.7 seconds ![http://www.rufautocentre.com/newcars/images/RT12.jpg](http://www.rufautocentre.com/newcars/images/RT12.jpg) RUF RT12 650 hp (RWD)Test drive Video [http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=18…544667183&q=rs6](http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=1877188541544667183&q=rs6) or [http://rapidshare.de/files/9990731/Ruf\_RT12.wmv.html](http://rapidshare.de/files/9990731/Ruf_RT12.wmv.html) (15mb) **Performance:** 0-60 mph: 3.15 seconds 0 - 100 mph: 6.62 seconds 0 – 124 mph: 9.7 seconds.
