Looks like there are a few nice 993's at Ruf for sale. That black C2S looks really nice and well kept...

Yes, that black C2S looks hot. However, that's not a RUF. I don't think there are any RUFs on that page you linked. They do offer RUF powerkits and conversions, and here's the page for their RUF cars: http://www.weissach.com/ruf_cars.php

Saw Adam's RTurbo in a video and that thing is quick. IMO, RUF's the best Porsche tuner.

Ben - I wonder if the cars they get are trade in's on new Ruf's ?? Either way, probably a good bet that whatever they have is gonna be well maintained and in good shape considering their clientele...And I agree with you, they are the best when it comes to aftermarket tuners, man I'd love to let them convert my car to a CTR...

Agro,

RUF actually is a car manufacturer. They started with Porsche tuning, and now they actually sells RUF cars. Albeit all are Porsche-based cars.

Now that you have a 993, you are half way there. If I'm gonna do another RUF, I'd start with a 992 C2, send it to RUF in Germany for the follwoing:

Engine re-build with titanium innerds.
CTR or Turbo R conversion. Up-grade boost regulator, injectors, and CPU tuning.
Added oil cooler and inter-cooler, oil cooler fan switch.
RUF PSS9 suspension with sway bars.
Brembo Big Red (or equal) front and rear brakes.
RUF transmission.
Light weight 18" RUF wheels.
Racing seats with 5/6 point harness eyelets and anchors (mine only has 4 points).
ROW optional gas tank (23.4 gallons I believe).
RUF (Atiwe) steering wheels.
RUF free-flow exhaust package.
Special short shifter (35% throw reduction and 2" **** height reduction).
RUF A-pillar/rain-gutter aero insert.

Then when the car's all done. I'd fly over there in early summer (or mid-dfall, just not tourist season) and drive it all over Eirope for three-four weeks before I ship the car home.

That would be a dream come true indeed. See, you already have a 993, so the hard parts's over.
