Recommended Posts

An excellent video.....made me late for work!!! Thank you very much for posting!

 

On a side note, anyone who followed the 2016 Geneva car show, saw that RUF came with a trio of cars this year that Road & Track magazine called "the high powered alternative to a reimagined 911 by Singer". Well in talking to the new RUF Canada distributor (Weissach Calgary), the 993 based Turbo R Limited that was at the Geneva show actually was sold to a Calgary resident!!

The Ruf Turbo R limited is A tribute to our world famous “Turbo R” that debuted in the year of 1998 almost two decades ago. Winning the renowned world fastest car event, that was organized by Road & Track reaching the overall top speed of 339Km/h – 212MPH. Limited means in this case seven because only seven RUF TURBO R Limited will be manufactured. The most powerful air-cooled twin turbo vintage 2016. The six-cylinder boxer engine has in its base a twin-turbo engine, which develops from 3.6 liters no less than 620 hp at 6800 rpm / min , The power flows through a single-plate dry clutch on the manual transmission six-speed gearbox with integrated limited slip differential for the rear-wheel drive.
