Does that conversion include a fully built motor? I would assume for that price the motor still has stock internals.

Cleve,
550 Ruf is max conversion they do at Ruf Auto Center Dallas (stock internals)

Great set-up though!,

The 590 Nardo (is only done in Pfaffenhausen) is the one that will give you
GT700 guys "fits"...

Looks like a very nice car!
How does price/miles/year/ compare to your awesome car?

Same year, my car has 21000 miles, fully built motor, brand new PCCB's, around 740-750HP (need to re-dyno with new program)...hopefully mine is worth a little more.

Some key differences:

1. This seems to be a US-spec car, so worth more to begin with than a grey market car

2. If motor was fully built by Ruf, then it would be worth $$$, otherwise not really. Ruf is one of the few aftermarket tuners that command a real premium in the resale market, since its quality is widely perceived to be as good as factory.

"Grey Market" doesn't mean much these days since the cars are built for the "World Market". The only difference is the VIN and maybe some programming.

I agree that a Ruf built motor would be worth a good bit of $$.
