About GmbH Automobile RUF

Within just six years of its establishment, the German government was amazed by the superior quality of the operation of the RUF, by increasing the company's legal standing from a modified and fully sold company to an official car manufacturer in 1981.

The German government's confession at that time was a very amazing fact when it was considered that the RUF received this recognition during the German tuning industry's heyday when almost every wealthy German started a car modification business.

Since releasing their first car in 1983, the RUF has perfected every generation of Porsche-based products to the pinnacle of perfection.

Automobile GmbH's RUF, offers modified services according to orders and produces extraordinary sports cars from empty bodies or special frameworks, always juxtaposing extraordinary engineering techniques with strict development standards, unmatched by similar companies in the global market.

In November 2004, the RUF introduced their first home-made car, Rt12. Developed from scratch and using exclusive powertrain components and properties from Porsche roots. However, this auctioned Rt12 S is the star of their work built on a wider (and modified) body from the Porsche 997 generation Carrera.
