Sold my Ruf...

Decided to part with my beloved Ruf...one of the most back and forth car decisions I've ever made...in the end it wasn't being driven enough, and I was sorry to see it just sitting on the rack...On the bright side, it is going to a real porsche enthusiast and it will be appreciated.

The only bright side to this, is that it frees up a garage spot.....

Care to share the ballpark figure? It seems that RUF 550s sell for the high 90s?

I have to say, sucks to see such a fine car go. That really is perfection of a 996tt, its absolutely beautiful!

Goodluck on filling in that spot, i think i know what it will be

A Ruf 550 in the 90's would be a steal ! There was one similar to mine for sale at Motorcars International for 134k....I got sufficiently close to be happy, and the new owner got a great deal.

Is the buyer local? Or a 6speed member? Glad to see it go to a good home. Definetly one of my favorite 996's I've ever seen, that must have been a tough decision.

Thanks for the info. I know financial matters can be personal.
