Doesn't Ruf quote 420 BHP only with their centrifugal supercharger?

This is the Naturally aspirated version. No Forced induction = No turbo or supercharger. So i don't think so :$

I am in love with this car. It was my favorite out there until I saw pics of the new Zonda. This car is absolutely stunning.

I didn't like the prototybe but with less BLING wheels this one should be great. I can imagine how nice it is to drive.

Check out the link below and you will read that "RK" stands for Ruf Kompressor:

http://www.rufautocentre.com then click on New Cars, then RK Spyder
I believe they are utilizing the Dutch-made Rotrex unit also used by Koenigsegg:

The paint inside of the light housing is a nice touch. Not sure it would go over so well on a red car, would make the lights look "bloodshot".

That's a ton of money. Looks very nice, but for that kind of dough...oh what the hell, whoever buys it doesn't have to be concerned with how much they spend.

What is that little brake light looking thing between the seats facing backwards? It looks like a mirror or something. Is that on factory boxsters?
