650hp and an acceleration from 0-200km/h within 10 seconds are a strong word...

Yeah--the spoiler was unpainted, and it was pissing me off.  If it's carbon fiber, then it makes sense.

It looked like carbon fiber, so I doubt they would paint it to look like carbon fiber.

Damn, thats nice.

I would love a Ruf.

That thing just disappears in the corners, If you had your back turned after you heard that thing and turned around it would be gone.

Yup, same here.  One of my dream cars is a RUF 993 BTR Turbo conversion.

Rufs appear in many of my "knight rider" fantasies. By knight rider i refer to a all blacked out sports car(black wheels, super tint, jet black exterior, no emblems, NO LICENSE PLATE) that taughnts(sp) the local county mounties and always outruns them(and never gets caught). Which wouldn't be hard in a car like this.

I've always harbored a place in my heart for the Ruf Yellowbird and the CTR2 Sport

That would be a helluva rush.  I'd do it and have people pay money to take rides with me while doing that.  Somewhat easy job.  Just can't mess up!  :P  :rockon:

I think you're thinking of "taunts".  

Rufs are like Porsches, only faster.  It's just a shame that every RGT I've seen had an automatic transmission.
