Cool, why not start a new thread and give us your impressions of the two. Congrats!

 

Nice to see RUF in a mainstream show:

Greg,

some recent pics..

 

Fantastic, Leon. Looks like this one is in the Brunters lineup. Still taking the other two as well?

 

Hi all,

I'm now the proud owner of this 2001 RUF Turbo R 550 conversion. She's missing her chin spoiler in these pix, but it's on there now and the car is sitting about an inch lower now as well.

 

Nice job Denny!

One correction ... you have an "R Turbo". "Turbo R"s are 993 versions.

I was talking to the RUF Dallas guys at lunch the other day, when I asked about which car they would personally want to buy, they all said an R Turbo. Great car, very fast and well priced.

 

Congrats on the RTurbo Denny! Truly awesome machines. How did you lower it?

 

R Turbo...thanks :-)

RAC had some takeoff springs that they said would be ideal for correcting the nose-high stance that some 2001's apparently came from the factory with, I confess that I'm not sure what brand they are, I'll have to ask Bob.

 

Howdy Denny!

 

Yellowbird SOLD

Hi.
Here is my new 2002 R-turbo 550 conversion. I'm located in Norway, and it's currently -10 °C (14°F) so the car is stationed in my garage for the winter.
The previous owner special ordererd the Ruf exchaust with two tailpipes to keep the look as original as possible.

 

Thanks for the video. A dream.
