Striking color and nice looking car! The scarcity of that color keeps very unique, glad it wasn't a production color.
I see you have the front bumper cover and wheels, also the hood badge. What else is RUF? did you DIY with ordered parts or have a RUF conversion shop do the work? At what point does the identity change from a Porsche to a RUF? I'm in a related business and just curious.

-Engine: RUF K24 hybrid turbos & wastegates, intake manifold and inlet pipes, ECU
-RUF coilovers and adjustable swaybars, front strut brace
-RUF brakes (basically Brembo 6 pots)
-RUF wheels
-RUF wheel studs
-RUF front bumper, rear spoiler, door sills, mirrors, shifter, pedals, hood and trunk badging
If the car has a Porsche VIN it is a Porsche, a RUF VIN would technically make it a "RUF".

your car looks fantastic, love the colour, looks great on the 996. You inspired me to have a look on RUF website, one set of pedals and footrest on it's way. I know who to blame if hte RUF bug gets me big time!

Update
I wanted to post an update as the car is about to go up for sale in the car sales section. I've enjoyed making it just about perfect in every way. It's a true one of a kind.

Thanks for the love. It's pretty cool to show up to the average Porsche show in a paint to sample car.

What???? Your are selling that fabulous car? What? Are you nuts? Ruf cars (yes, even conversions) do not grow on trees. With what will you replace that car? Oh, the humanity. Say it ain't so.

The car will only sell for the right price which will lead into another Ruf variant. I'd love to hop into the 98 993 RUF conversion but I don't want to get ahead of myself.
