That car looks like a turd i dropped last year. all yellow and wierd and fast. RONPAUL
And, his first name, Alois, is pronounced ‘Al-o-wah’, not “Ah-Low-is”! Please; that’s just embarrassing…
Why did he call is a GTR3 in his closing comments???
993 might have cemented the GT2 but it was all because of the Yellowbird
Thank you Ruf it would have never been the same without you!
Ruff is a extension of porsche they just take porsche to another level, like roush or shelby is to ford
“only” 460 hp but 0-60 in 3,7 seconds! That’s amazing for a car that’s 26 years old!!!
RUF CTR = Ultimate sleeper car
LOL I only remember a F40 and a 959 in the original game … there were Supercars Disks .. but can’t remember there was a Yellowbird
Youklxc
If you got GT5, get it, its a beast, i did one round Nordschleife in 07:45:00 its soo hard, even in video game ( i drove it with Steeering wheel)
The Yellowbird is the fastest car in the iconic computer game “Test Drive 2, the duel” in 1989
I swear I’ve always thought RUF was a fake Porsche brand, that was put in video games
Ruf CTR 3 is a great car for sure but it looks like a replica car to me .. CG’ replica
Love to see these nice cars going fast.
Jethro, wonderful story – for Porsche guys, this is exactly what we would love to do if we could…thanks!
11:22 *drool*
Lets do without the obnoxious music next time guys, PLEASE!
This car reminds me of Gran Turismo 2!
8:40…balls out in the rain. This is why nothing will ever be as good as the old days. No one would ever do/allow this today.
They are independent.. if you bring enough money, they build yoiu a lot more than just a Porsche.
Brabus is the same way. Both very impressive companies. I love Ruf!
Surprise, the English not pronouncing something properly.
I always like these cars thanks to granturismo but watching this i gained so much more respect for the company as a hole
RUF VW Amarok????
