Bought a 1997 Ruf Turbo R about a month ago. From what I gather, Weissach in Vancouver flew techs from Ruf into town in 1997 and built (converted) 3 993TT's to Turbo R specs....

The weather hasn't been cooperative in Vancouver for any decent photos of the car...not when I've been out of the office anyhow.
I love the way the car drives, sounds, etc.... can't wait to blast up to Whistler on the Sea to Sky highway this summer...pics and details coming
