She's Back - RUF 993 Turbo R!!

Well, almost…

She’s back together and that’s what counts! Loading up on the truck later today and should hopefully be here later this week. Can’t wait to break her in.

I’ll update this thread with more pics as they come in and will be sure to do a proper photo shoot once the car is delivered.

Haven’t driven her yet, but wanted to give a shout out to Hans, Wayne, Bob, Mark, Jonathan and all of the folks at RUF Dallas for working on this project over the past few months. Can’t say enough about their level of professionalism, sound advice and overall attention to detail. The true RUF experience in every possible way imaginable…

Thanks guys!!!!

Kevin

Wow Kevin, the car looks fantastic as usual. The stance/ride height is just perfect. The new front brakes look huge!

I just dropped off my 02 4S with them last night and saw your car... that was one of the nicest cars there, and they've got some beauties.

Kevin
It only took 3 months for a complete rebuilt of your engine? That to me worth every penny. Mine has been over 15 months and frustrated the hell out of me.
