An enclosed trailer and a Dually would be ideal.
Uhaul rents pick ups and trailers, but I had a hard time having them rent me one for my FL-AZ move.
You could also be gangster and drive it. Its a Ruf, it can handle the trip.

Wellllll, my brother has a Dodge Ram with a tow hitch, although its his work truck

We'll see, i'll know soon! I dont by any means pamper my car, i drive it hard and put miles on, but driving to Vegas in that thing is out of the question, it totally is not worth it one bit IMO! It would be tiring/draining and never ending

Congrats Martin! And not to mention the tickets you would rack up on the way- even before meeting VRAlexander and crew. Oh yes, and very brave for taking the pictures in such weather.

Anyone here's style?

This type of color should be forbidden.



That is actually one of my best friends car, ill make sure to pass on your sentiments to him regarding his pride and joy. It is by far and away the fastest R turbo in existence....

The colour looks much better in person,

I personally wouldnt go for it, but is a personal choice and different. Why should it be forbidden?

You get used to the colour, it does grow on you.
Sorry, no disrespect from my side. I, personally, am still not convinced about the color. Must be because of the rain probably better in the sunshine.
But then again, it is not my car so as long as he is happy there is no problem. And if it's really, really fast I hope he enjoys it

About taste: When I visited AMG a few years back, they said they once did a special SL in the color of the mistress favourite lipstick color.
Apparently the whole car (yes, everything) was in light pink.
Beauty is in the eye of the Beholder, and nowadays everything's possible.
