Other Modifications
-Brand new old stock black sport seats taken out of a 2004 GT3 with only delivery miles. You'll see that it has the GT2/GT3 only yellow stickers which state that the back seat is not intended for passengers. These seats are literally brand new.
-EPL 1.0 Bar Tune (Factory reliable, 450rwhp, 520tq)
-Billet divertor valves
-Porche OEM GT3 lower center console delete. OEM black carpet. This looks amazing.
-Kenwood single din radio installed in early 2013 with pandora radio and iPod cable hidden behind GT3 center delete
-Rear spoiler pump deleted in down position. This can be reinstalled if desired. I removed it because I was going to run a RUF RTurbo rear spoiler which I only like in the down position aesthetically.

Maintenance
-Oil last change at 42k miles or 2000 miles ago in June 2012
-Spark plugs replaced over the winter or 300 miles ago
-Brakes flushed and filled June 2012

-Coolant expansion cap replaced July 2012

RUF Conversion Details…

June 2012
Car was converted to RTurbo specs in 2012. This was a spared no expense conversion through RUF Auto US. I had my local body shop spray the front clip both fenders and hood to ensure a perfect match. They also installed and painted the RUF side mirrors as well as the lower valances under the driver and passenger doors that is usually black plastic. I then clear bra'd the entire front end (Bumper, Hood, Fenders) completely to keep if looking perfect and free of chips. There are zero rock chips. Zero.

May 2013
I was so pleased during the conversion that I brought the car back to the same shop and had them delete the rear bumperettes and fill in the holes to a perfect smooth finish. The rear bumper now looks just like a European model.


-RUF Sport Exhaust. Great power with zero drone. This system is over $7k new from RUF. Includes polished slash cut tips.
-RUF 220MPH Gauge Conversion. These aren't on 99% of the RUF Factory RTurbos and almost never on conversions.
-RUF 19 inch Speedlines. No curb rash whatsover.
-RUF 7MM Hubcentric Spacers. Required for proper spacing without the vibrations of non-hub centric 7MM spacers.
-RUF 996 Turbo Front Fascia. Vented just like OEM GT2 setup.
-RUF 996 Black All Leather Steering Wheel with Blue Deviated Stitching
-RUF Aero Mirrors. Also highly sought after and almost never used. These are the real deal.
-RUF Pedals and dead pedal
-RUF Floor Mats
-RUF Shifter. The best shifter **** feel that you can get for a Porsche.

Condition and History:

I've worked over the past year to make this car a true show car. The paint is perfect and is truly unique. No dents, scratches, dings, or spider marks. The car drives perfect for long cruises or tight bends. Everything works as it should. The interior smells new and is free of marks and scratches.


One slight car fax issue…

The hood was replaced back in 2006 due to debris denting it on the expressway. Only the hood was replaced. This was then resprayed for a perfect match and protected with clear bra in 2012 during the conversion.

Yeah, very sweet car. I saw your posting on eBay recently and was drooling over this thing, both for the RUF goodness but also the Bugatti blue color which is unique. GLWS, if I hadn't picked up my 993TT this spring I'd be itching for this one.
