Ruf CTR1 & Ruf CTR2

Remember I received some goodies from Downunder last month? I promised I will do a review and here it is. Those who are into Porsche will know the infamous tuning company from Germany called RUF. They specialised only in tuning Porsche. Here are two of the seven mini RUF car models that I bought online.

RUF CTR1(Yellow) and CTR2(Silver)


RUF CTR1 weight only 1,150 kg. It can sprint from 0-60 mph in 3.7 seconds, 0-100 mph in 7.3 seconds, 0-125 mph in 11.4 seconds and a top speed of 212 mph (341 km/h). Please bear in mind that all the figures was recorded in the late 80s. Sub 3sec supercar is not as common as now at that time.


RUF actually made 29 CTR1, the rest were just conversion from customer own cars.


Launched around 1996, RUF CTR2 was based on Type 993 Generation 911. It weight only 1,380 kg. Sprint from 0-60 mph in 3.8 seconds, 0-100 mph in 7.8 seconds, 0-125 mph in 11.5 seconds and a top speed of 215 mph (346 km/h).


RUF CTR2 cost USD$315,000 when new, at todays exchange rates it cost BND$440,000 in 1996....
