RUF RT12, Ferrari F430, Porsches... at RUF Dallas (no 56k)
Overview:
I went to the RUF Auto Centre in Dallas today for the public viewing of the RUF RT12. It was an absolutely amazing trip. I got to see a new Ferrari F430 haul *** up to the shop. We could literally hear that thing wailing from two blocks away well before we could see it. Saw the new M5, ton's of RUF's, lots of porsches. Saw the #2 of 50 club coupe edition of the carrera, just a couple days old. Let me know if anybody has any questions. Enjoy!
For anyone that doesn't know, RUF is a very well known name in the Porsche community. They actually are considered a manufacturer as they get the body and chassis direct from Porsche. All of their cars are tested on the Autobaun, the Nurburgring, etc. Absolutely amazing cars. This is their first and only shop in America.
So first the RUF RT12:
650 hp
Your choice of awd or rwd
any color combinations inside and out you want
suspension can be electronically rasied
Roll cage integrated into the body of the car
997 based body
996 turbo based motor
19" front and rear wheels
ceramic brakes
305's in back
255's in front
All your's for about 300k
This particular car is the only one in America right now and is an all wheel drive model.
A rear wheel drive car on Pirelli Pzero's on a dusty night road put up these numbers recored on GPS. ( http://www.6speedonline.com/forums/s...threadid=34308 )
0-60 mph 3.15
0-100 mph 6.62
0-124 mph 9.7
1/4 mile 11.0 @ 134
Again, this is the RWD, not AWD model, and this was on an unprepared surface. Also, straight line speed is definitely not what these cars are all about. They just happen to also be ridiculously quick in a straight line as well
So, here are the pics!
