hopefully i will be making a trip to Pfaffenhausen around May. it was supposed to be sooner, but doesn't look like i'll be able to before then.

this is the first RT12 i've seen in any color other than the Ruf orange. it looks stunning in silver! and those OZ's definitely suit it!

all good things are worth waiting for...

The driver is H-P Lieb, Sr. test driver, a.k.a. Mr Böse (angry)
Not a bad driver at all. You will remember if you've been a passenger.
I will never forget my ride in the RUF R Kompressor at Hockenheim, and my friends are still talking about the test drive in the RUF R Turbo 590 on the narrow roads around Pfaffenhausen.
I think his son is a very good driver in the Carrera Cup as well.

The Rt12 650 is MUCH faster than the 997TT.
0-200 km/h in 9.6 secs.

It might even be difficult for the 997TT to compete with the RUF R Turbo 550 (996) at least to 200 km/h.

3.8L TT, 3.3s 0-60. I thought 997TT was fast until I see this.

I often wonder the wisdom of 911's rear engine layout. Seems like the platform just gets better and better over time.
