Bad Translation from Babelfish, but still more readable.
The Porsche 997 - the new model 911 - have been already tackled by a lot of tuners. Now also the notorious RUF have given new 911 the treatment. The Carrera GT can wrap up, however...
RUF offer the customers who offer new 911 for tuning 3 choices: there 3,8-liter biturbomotor can be built in of 530.,560 or 650 pk. The maximum cross-belt amounts to then respectively 750.,790 and 870 Nm. Customers can themselves molars or them their car with rear wheel - or 4-wielaandrijving want. RUF call its creations Rt 12. the getunede 997 of RUF have been presented on the engine show in ashes.
For the 560 pk version, which considers RUF as the standard ombouw, the company gives a top speed up of 350 km/u; the sprint of 0 to 100 would take off the car in 3.7 seconden. Enough for Carrera GT too rapidly finished to be. Those obtain 330 km/u and sprint of 0 to 100 in 3.9 seconden. For the new developed 650 pk strong RUF Rt12 performance figures still no are available.
To the front RUF assemble 19 inch wheels, behind copies of 20 inch sit. The onderstel is this way adjusted that it can endure speeds of above 350 km/u. As an option a system deliverable with which the floor freedom of the RUF with 5 cm can be raised, is. On request the RUF Rt 12 are with a role cage deliverable that with leathers or alcantara can be held.

OMG, THATôs a beauty if Iôve ever seen one. Aggressive yet clean. On a related note, does anyone else think that Ruf is understating their horsepower figures again? If the 560 HP version does the afforementioned times, imagine what the 650 HP version will do.

This thing just killed the 996 Turbo AND the 993 Turbo for me.
Amazingly good looks. I just wish the front wheel had a little bit of dish, but a minor quibble.
RufMD, I'd still take the F430, though, so hold still for a sec.

I wonder how much this car is gonna go for. And how hard it will be to drive. RWD with 700 HP. Hope it has PSM.

but I could probably get the RT 12 much quicker, custom built, and in 3 years time it would essentially be worth the same money as originally paid.
At some point in time, the F430 will take a 100k hit (4 years), whereas an RT 12 650 hp variant would like bring good coin for years to come...After the intial sillyness is over, the F430 will be good value, but for now its either MSRP or sit back and watch.
For example, a CTR2 currently brings >200k....nice return for years of awesome performance...
