Yellowbird has arrived
The original Ruf Yellowbird has arrived on U.S. soil and is living on Ruf Autocentre's showroom floor for a little over a month. An open invitation goes out to all to come experience a breathtaking view of Yellowbird (CTR 1) and a Yellow CTR2 Sport side by side.

That car sparked dreams of Porsche ownership for me. Glad to see that it's still in one piece!

Wasn't it AdamT from here who had bought this car? Or were there more than one just built? Every time I hear "it's THE Yellow Bird", meaning there would only be one ...
