Wow, nice, I expected a boring video but it's real highspeed Best Motoring action. Quite a difference at speed, the RUF seems so much more easy.

That's pimp. That F40 shifting in mid-bank is B-A-D-A-S-S!! :D I swear I heard some Star Wars sound effects right at the shift...?

TopGearNL 06-14-2006 06:34 PM

WOW, I didn't expect that really :)

Is the RUF the Yellowbird out of GT4??? And did you notice how quiet it is inside the RUF, its the same in GT4, you think your doing 60, but you doing well over 100 :shock:

stock vs tuned , and even so the difference was minimal

MartijnGizmo 06-15-2006 06:33 AM

RAMMIUS 06-15-2006 10:17 AM

what would you classify them as?

they built, what... 25 CTR's right? each one the same (more or less) costom aero work, costom wheel sizes, suspension.... all different then the 911 it came from

they may not be a full blown PAG... but they are cirtainly more then just a tuner

RAMMIUS 06-15-2006 10:54 AM

^^Did they PRODUCED the car ??? :roll: NO

They took an EXISTING car and they HEAVILY modified it

It`s still a tuner job

saadie 06-15-2006 11:22 AM

^^ :D actually .... Ruf like other TUNERS such as alpina, ACSchnitzer, Hartge get the body shell ... and a few parts .. the assemble the cars themselves THUS ProduCing them :) .....

yeh ... thats how it works :) .....
there was this topic sometime ago ...... i also thought they just tune the car ... but someone from JW(forgot his name :oops: ) has been to the RUf factory :P and proved me wrong bigtimes :lol: :?

Fatty is right - RUF is one of the few "tuners" who don't just tune.. ;)

It is seems easier to be a ceritified as a manufacturer in Germany than else where..

I was one of the people proving you wrong. :P

And now again, as Alpina is also a manufacturer.

RAMMIUS 06-15-2006 01:03 PM

:lol:

so you get a car, you buy parts from different sources : lighter Mahle pistons, replace the steel con-rods with titanium ones , get some bigger turbines from IHI or KKK, put some bigger Brembo breaks, strengthen an already produced gearbox, add a bodykit (in-house made ?:lol:) and a all of a sudden you`re a producer.........interesting :lol: :lol:

Mercedes-Benz buys metal from company a
they buy seat belts from company b
they buy the interiors from company c
they buy wheels from company d
they buy piston rods from company e
they buy camshafts from company f
they buy air conditioner compressors from company g
they buy air conditioner condensors from company h


i think you might get it.... but i might be wrong... but does this mean that MB aren't a producer?
