What do you guys think about the $130k price tag? Is the RUF name & conversion worth $30k, assuming a super clean low mile 993TT may fetch $100k now?

Asking $0.60 to the dollar for RUF upgrades if it actually cost $50K. Is that worth it to you as a prospective buyer?

That's a good way to look at it (stock + 50% to 60% of conversion price). As noted earlier, Ruf wheels and body work missing on this one.

Personal opinion to Only1Buck. Would never trade your yellow one for this RUF. If this car has correct rims and bodywork then it would be a more difficult decision..

This is exactly how I am looking at this car. IMO, you cannot duplicate the conversion on it for $30k. Plus, it has pss10s and sportseats.

That's one of the reasons I like it. To each his own.

Yes - some like the sleeper look - obviously what is missing is just looks (provided it got full engine, exhaust, suspension treatment) so it boils down to preference.
You can easily purchase all the missing pieces later anyways if you change your mind - would just add to cost.

These turbos, RUF or not, don't sit for sale very long.

Maybe a Rennlister is picking it up?
