    Cayman Test Mule?

    Here's Ruf's mid-engined coupe prototype. We haven't heard much of it lately, and I wonder if it wasn't part of the development work of the Cayman.....

    You're right, it does seem to bear a bit of a resemblance.

    ruf had better do some better styling with their prototype. Usually their stuff looks pretty good...but those headlights-ouch!!!

    Looks like a CGT/987 clone.
    The headlights must be from a Le Mans P-car.
    I dunno, it's ugly and damn charismatic at the same time.
    Love the rear end!

    Re: Cayman Test Mule?

    Just because the rear end looks like that of a CGT from this angle?

    1. RUF doesn't have ANYTHING to do with Porsche engineering/development/whatever
    2. Porsche doesn't like Tuners too much and they have some sort of a black list

    How about a 986/987 (Boxster...this is that thing which came before the Cayman, guys... ) hidden behind a weird looking experimental body?
