    RUF interior always reminds me of the 70's, but this one looks good

    That looks GREAT!

    The RT12 needs a dark colour IMO, otherwise it looks to busy...

    Now that is a wicked looking 997 turbo. Like the rims. Look kinda look like rinnspeed. How many HP/torque does it have.

    Stunning, except the seats. But I doubt anyone driving really cars about the seat inserts.

    MVN,
    I thought it is not a 997 turbo. It is a 997S with a (996tt) turbo engine. Customized by RUF, with their aerodynamic kit, rims and engine upgrades (and the rest)

    Re: black RT12

    MKSGR,
    thx
    very satisfied mainly with the power delivery at intermediate and high speeds and the seats which at this configuration are second to none.
    Will swap though for the set of 19s as the steering gets nervous at high speed with the 20s - the downside of cool looks...

    19" wheels do look very nice as well Also, they will further improve acceleration

    BTW: Does your car have these resonances between 2500 and 4000/min we mentioned in our Ruf report?

    He means a resonating exhaust sound - an unpleasant distortion of sound in this rev range.

    No, the sound is only audible when the throttle is applied, i.e. not in idle mode etc.

    i know what you mean. in our car, there's a "droning" sound that could become quite annoying on a long trip. it only happens when you're OFF the throttle, at around 2,000-3,000 RPM or thereabouts.

    Hugo, love your car!!! What tires are you using on your 19's? Sticking with Conti VMAX's? i can't wait to switch to PS2's... the Conti's have very little grip! and there is no room in my country to ever drive at above 320kmh for more than a few seconds at most!
