Great find (as usual)!
It looks awesome!

Not crazy about he colour though... especially since they put in on the wheels to.
That said, it's amazing these guys have a fully done over 991!!!
When on earth did they do this... the first 991's where only delivered a few weeks ago.
Damn these guys move!

Oh BTW have you heart or seem anything at the Geneva show about the 991 C4S?
Been googling the hell out of it but I got nothing

agreed, wheels don`t need to match the body color, when will some Tuners realize that?
they should have chosen black for the wheels, the diffusor and front lip.
but i would even take this car in pink. RUF is BOSS and the car should be out of this world!!

+1, usually RUF comes up with Turbo Kit Versions after the factory ones.
i mean this is not a tuner that squeezes a bit of HP out of a car.
they have built this from the ground up in such a short period of time, this is just amazing!

no hope! we/i would have certainly heard/read if they would present the 4s on the geneva auto show.

To bad about the C4S... was really hoping they'd show it.

Re; the RUFF car... yeah I certainly wouldn't kick her out of bed for leaving crumbs, hell it'd tell her to bring a friend!

Wow. Now that is what i would call a stunning looking car. OK as others have pointed out the colour is not on everyones list of favourites but boy, the rest of the car is jawdropping.

I'm wondering if they've turbocharged the Carrera S 3.8L motor, or if they swapped in a 3.8L TT from the existing Turbo.

My guess is they swapped in a TT motor. If you look closely at one of the rear pictures, you can see that the exhaust design and intercooler placement are just like the current TT.

from autoblog:

"The Rt35 is a rolling celebration of Ruf's 35 years in business and beats Porsche to the punch by offering a twin turbo kit for the Carrera S, outputting 630 horsepower and an equally astounding 608 pound feet of torque through a standard seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox. Ruf isn't citing a 0-60 time, but claims the Rt35 tops out at a little over 205 mph."


looks like itīs a kit that can be installed afterwards, which would mean itīs indeed based on the new 991S engine.
but not 100% sure.

The RT12 used a 996TT setup back in '05, so I wouldn't be surprised if they used a 997.2TT and went from there.

hmmm...it would be an interesting choice if that's what they did. Personally, I'd just swap in the TT motor. It makes for a much simpler and reliable install. (I still think that's what they did )

Either way, I give 'em props for building it. Their cars are always unique and perform well.

i will check their german website for updates in the next weeks (data, pricing etc.) and try to find out if it`s an aftermarket kit that is available for any current 991S owner or not. stay tuned!

i just wrote them an email but one thing i noticed:

991CS, 400HP, CO2 emissons: 224g/km
RT-35, 630HP, CO2 emissions:
268 g/km
997.2 Turbo, 500HP, CO2 emissons: 272g/km


which would indicate that they didn`t swap the 997.2TT engine into the 991 chassis, cause the RT-35 makes 130 ponies more and emits less CO2 than the 997.2TT, but thatīs also just speculation.
