great pics. Thanks for sharing. Silver coupe is sexy as is the black cab, but I'm partial to my black Coupe.

Silversufer...this must totally suck for you! You've got a Ruf which everyone calls a Porsche and you've got a DTM which everyone calls a BS. How do you cope?

BTW, which Ruf do you have?....as I've seen the DTM spank some massively quick cars, be interesting to hear how it stacks up against your Ruf.

You've got outstanding taste...what's next?...I'm guessing the only thing that would compliment your garage inventory would be a McLaren F1?......

I personally think its great, let the ignorants be ignorant. At least he can drive his cars in peace.
Im sure he doesnt get too many people trying to race him on the highway because they're probably thinking he's just a ricer that put a wing and a kit on a CLK Mercedes.
I love non-crowd attracting low key cars. Imagine how much attention the similarly priced SLR will catch. People will try to race you on the highway, take pics while driving etc... its sickening.

That's what I dig about Ruf....if you know what it is...good for you, if you don't...who cares! I like staying under the radar....DTM misses the mark a bit there, but in a dark color its missed by a lot of people who simply don't know. Wish you could get the CSL's in this country, that's another sleeper....not in the DTM or Ruf league, but a cool bit of kit.

So silver, if its not an F1, what are you saving up for????....an island?

I believe the current going rate, adjusted for inflation is:

race-car drivers license
video evience of exceeding 200mph in YOUR OWN car.
additional video evidence of having talked your way out of at least ONE triple-digit ticket
