The original RUF turbo!

I love the understated details. Muffler with factory tips that are cut down to fit, fiberglass 1-piece IROC-style tail with semi-gloss painted lip, original square a/c compressor, porthole headlight washers fitted to the 'glass front bumper and the roof aerial instead of factory antenna.

I really like RUF as well!

dunno why so few people show love for them,..maybe the high selling price keeps it from becoming less rare to be seen

Ruf are frankly awesome
understated Q car type look

the reason why they are rare as mentioned is price and bought by those who dont need to show off

Techart etc - are show offs

Ruf - speak with performance.

Here's the spec sheet for this car

Some people on other forums asked why it doesn't have an intercooler. Notice that it is originally a 1977 3.0-liter 930 Turbo, originally non-intercooled, with displacement bumped up to 3.3.

Just over 2700 lbs. with 300hp and LOTS of turbo lag, sounds like fun!
