Default Bugatti Blue RUF Conversion
I've kept this conversion under wraps for months. It's time to share. RUF Auto US made the conversion a breeze.

I wrote a whole article on the history of the car, conversion process, etc here...

Looks like a Laguna Seca Blue, a BMW M3 colour. Very nice looking car.

Wow that looks great. I've always loved that front bumper for the 996.

Thanks,

This by far the hottest 996 Turbo! Ive been on the hunt for a PTS Turbo for about a year, still hunting. Every night I check Rennlist, 6speed, Autotrader, Ebay, and Cars.com. Its actually kinda fun.

Please fell free to email or PM me any leads.

Cool car! What type of money is involved when it's all said and done? How is it on the street?
Thanks.
