Amazing car

Its nice to see your excitement about your car.

I also think the shipping would have caused a huge amount of stress.

Good luck with it.

Cardiologist?

ER . Thanks, I saw a shipment of 3 mini coopers arrive from new Zealand once by container . The container had leaked /had exposure and the salt corrosion and damage to cars was sad. I think that coloured my shipping choice lol

Congratulations Ruf MD, that is the dream car for many of us

If it is the one featured in the R&T mag then it is "silverflash" isn't it? I think I saw it for sale in Japan a few years ago (I may be wrong though).
I have a copy of that issue and they mention it is twin plug running a TAGtronic ECU but not sure (in line with Toby's question) if it may have been retrofitted to single plug and Motronic by RUF later on.

How does it compare to a modern twin turbo engine car like for example the MP4-12c? Would love to see pictures of those two together.

Enjoy in great health

Great to see you on here Jas!!! Previously Kevin had the only 993TT variant that I wanted more than my own car, and now I have to live with a second one only being two miles from my house!

Matt told me about this beauty when it was still in process and now that it is here I am dying to see it! Wouldn't mind getting updated on the rest of your collection as well...I hear you've been busy. Let me know next time you get it out of the garage...I'll take you up on that drive we've never had together.

Still have the Carrera GT? I bought an Audi R8 Spyder in Red which seems pretty rare...look forward to showing it to you. It is interesting how different the Audi Red and Guards Red are when they sit right next to each other. The 993TT is still my favorite though.
