The '''Ruf RGT''' is a sports car made by [[Ruf Automobile]] of Germany. | |||
Based on the Porsche 911 GT3, the Ruf RGT was introduced in 2000. Inspired by the 1973 Porsche Carrera RS, 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). When the new generation of 911 GT3 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). | Based on the [[Porsche 911 GT3]], the Ruf RGT was introduced in 2000.

The Ruf RGT is a sports car made by Ruf Automobile of Germany.
Based on the Porsche 911 GT3, the Ruf RGT was introduced in 2000. Inspired by the 1973 Porsche Carrera RS, 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). When the new generation of 911 GT3 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).
Both engines are coupled to 6-speed manual transmissions.
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.
The car's appearance is also changed, utilizing a bodykit which includes a polyurethane front air dam and carbon fibre doors, mirrors, engine lid, and spoiler, all of which reduce the car's weight to 2,932 pounds (1,330 kg). The car is fitted with 19 inch Ruf Supperleggera wheels and Michelin Pilot Sport Cup tires.
Finally, the RGT is customized with interior trim of the customer's choice, including Recaro seats and the deletion of unnecessary parts to save weight.
Base price for the original model was $135,000 USD, while the new 997 model costs $258,000 USD.
