Wow, Patrick, that's big news. Someone very lucky will be the new owner of an incredible machine. Won't be the same without you & your RUF at Palooza, etc.

Hope to see you remain on RL, & that this beauty might stay in the family here, too.

New toy on the the way? Good luck with sale!

The predecessor to mine at 3X the price! Yeah, cost no object I'd take the 993 version.........

(Ultimately, as I've said before, how about combining mine with the water cooled engine into the 4S chassis?)

I had the pleasure to follow behind this car maybe even get passed by it once or twice. It looks every bit as good as the pics in person. GLWS Patrick You do know you're gonna regret it, right? Just saying

This is a super car and a great owner. The new owner will be getting a well cared for car and have a great buying experience to boot. I will miss seeing this car on our AR runs.

This is a beautiful car and won't last long. What are you going to replace her with?

What a beautiful car Patrick, I'd say good luck with the sale, but the car will sell itself. Guards Red, 993, RUF Turbo R............lots of win.

When cars such as these have gone up so much in value recently, I thoroughly understand people moving on. All of a sudden they get used far less and the stress when being used kills much of the enjoyment, at least to those of us of more modest means.
