Looks quite nice, but not in this colour. It will be an outstanding standing little devil just like any other Ruf.... so is the bloody PRICE !!!

You can get the new turbo for that and still have lots of money aside to burn some rubbers 8) The turbo might be a little bit slower but is more of a complete car than this one. So, naaaaah bring on the turbo.

If you want to see the UBER ruf in action on the ring: go to youtube, go for Ruf RT12 and enjoy the show of the "bluebird" 8) :o :!: :!:

That colour is amazing. So much depth to it. Car looks great, but costs an arm and a leg, but i guess exclusivity is key.

TOO MUCH MONEY For that performance................plus the fact that is still only a cayman. Gimmie a DB9 or a F430

As I said, it's supposed to resemble Ferraries, and I found the article as well. As it turns out it's not really a RUF, tho the under the skin stuff comes from them.

It is very much a RUF though - they just send the body/chassis away for complete re-engineering - the car is sold and serviced through RUF...

...if the planets align correctly, I may be able to offer an InDepth later on ;)

Whets up with the silver part on top of the taillights, kind of looks out of place!

I like that color and the shape, very nice! I like the hp figures too but the price is nuts. But who knows? Maybe the performance/design/exclusivity justify the price, I guess we will just have to wait and see.

As i wrote it is limited to 49 cars, and as we know people like to pay more (or much more) for this exclusivity.

Looks nice but not my cup of tea. RK is not RUF though. RUF just provides powertrain and chassis components.

Its a good concept, though I'd rather go for a more subtle approach like TechArts 3.8 litre conversion or a TTP turbo engine. The Cayman is a wonderful platform :D

Actually it is as much RUF as it is "Studio whats is face"..

At least the RUF rep I spoke to says so.

Providing the "powertrain and chassis" is everything... the body work and interior are the addons ;)

Besides it actually has RUF badges on the outside.

Hopefully someone gets detailed pics this week - the cars are in Dallas for the next week or 2.
