Ruf RGT

The Ruf RGT is a sports car made by Ruf Automobile of Germany.

First generation (2000–2004)

The first-generation Ruf RGT was introduced in 2000 using an engine and chassis based on the Porsche 996. The Ruf RGT combines light weight with a powerful engine to provide impressive performance. Acceleration of the original 3.6L version was 0-60 mph in 4.6 seconds, with a top speed of 190 mph (306 km/h).

Second generation (2005–2011)

When the Porsche 997 debuted, Ruf bored out the 3.6L engine to 3.8 litres (231.9 cu in), modified the exhaust and catalytic converters, and replaced the ECU and air filter. The new power output was 445 bhp (332 kW), which resulted in decreasing the 0-60 mph time from 4.6 to 4.2 seconds (or even 4.1, according to some sources), and increasing top speed by 7 mph (to 317 km/h).

Ruf also added a performance suspension system, using Bilstein components, as well as high-performance Brembo disc brakes, measuring 13.8 inches (351 mm) in front and 13 inches (330 mm) in the rear.
