Perfection: You just achieved it.
Awesome ride ;) |
Thanks guys.
Now I just need to drive it more! Still too early to give any quality feedback and still breaking her in and keeping revs low. Here's what I can say... 1) the car feels so much more "alive" and responsive. everything feels much more alert. For those of you that have driven bmw M cars that had the "M" button, it almost feels like that magnified 2 or 3x. I can definately tell there is a ton of power waiting to be unleashed. The difference is much more noticable than any other power upgrade I've had done on a car including going from stock to a stage II 996 twin turbo. And I believe most of the improvement from the RUF upgrade comes over 4.5K RPM. 2) the car is incredibly smooth. acceleration feels effortless and so composed. there are no power spikes - almost like a NA car. 3) I got rid of the muffler bypasses and put on some fabspeed freeflow exhausts. The car is much quieter, but I like it. Sport cats make it louder than stock. 4) there is a nice rumble and shake at idle. It's subtle but nice. I can't quite explain it but very cool. I think it could be the cams? To this point I haven't taken revs up past 5k, but the power is incredible between 4 and 5. A totally different animal. I haven't experienced acceleration like this in any other car and I can't wait until I can really let her rip! The best part, is the car is just so driveable and smooth and comfortable and useable. I guess that's the magic of RUF. Oh and I love the brakes. even though I have yet to really put them to use, the pedal feel is awesome. I'll provide additional driving impressions as I rack up more miles kevin |

Typically not a huge fan of vanity plates, but couldn't resist...

Too funny, Kevin! I was going to grab that plate when I got my "RUF". I originally got "RUF PEPR" and drove with that plate for a while, then I settled on "DAKARA", which is the name of the RUF conversion for the Cayenne Turbo.
Well, I bet we'll all agree, you definitely GOT RUF! |
Cannoli,
I was also thinking of RED RUF. But that was too close to RED RUM. Gave me the creeps. GOT RUF... iut could be a question or a statement... :) |
That thing is SICK! I love that red and the wheels, ahhh!
|
very very very nice
|
Perfect. Enjoy, and more impressions after break-in!

DROOL! she is stunning, you must break a lot of necks driving her.

There isn't a modern day Porsche that can compare to this man!! STUNNING!!! Gotta love them air-cooled Porsches!

The more 993 pictures i see, the more i want to sell the 996, its horrible.
