Ruf RTR
The Ruf RTR is a sports car produced by Ruf Automobile of Germany. Introduced in 2013 on the 40th anniversary of the Ruf Turbo,[2] the RTR is based on the 991 generation Porsche 911 and pays homage to the original Ruf Turbo. Model Information Customers had a choice to either order their car in "narrow body" configuration or with a Ruf designed "wide body" configuration with hand-crafted, widened fenders which add 410 mm (3.15 in) of width at the front and 390 mm (4.73 in) at the rear.[3] In addition to the optional wide body configuration, the exterior features a large rear wing, a redesigned front bumper and special Ruf 5-spoke alloy wheels. It also has an integrated roll cage (IRC); a common feature on Ruf models, and ceramic disc brakes that measure 16.1 inches at the front and 15.4 inches at the rear.[3] 10 RTRs were reportedly built, and, according to Ruf, the RTR is no longer in production. However, it is unknown when production ended. Performance The RTR was offered with a 3.8-litre (3,746 cc) twin-turbocharged flat-six engine available in two variants. The first variant, based on the A91 engine found in the 991 911 Turbo and Turbo S, produces 645 PS (474 kW; 636 hp) and was available with a choice of a 6-speed manual transmission or a 7-speed PDK.[4] The second variant, based on the older "Mezger block" used in the 997, produces 802 PS (590 kW; 791 hp) at 7,300 rpm and 730 lb⋅ft (990 N⋅m) of torque at 4,500 rpm and was only offered with a 6-speed manual.[5] Also offered for both variants is the choice of rear-wheel drive or all-wheel drive drivetrains.[6] The 802 PS variant has a top speed of 351 km/h (218 mph) and can accelerate to 97 km/h (60 mph) in 3.2 seconds.[7] References
