I saw a Ruf Turbo-R!

Post by entirelyturbo »

This was on Thursday actually, but I have never heard myself emanate such a girly shrill scream in my life.

I was driving along in my delivery truck, and saw a 993 Turbo, and already got excited. But then I saw the vents behind the wheels on the rear bumper and said "No way!" I hauled as much ass as a Mazda B-series truck can haul and got up close to it, and it said turboR on the whale-tail. To make 100% sure, I got alongside him and I was able to catch him slowing down in the median to turn left, and I confirmed the Ruf symbol on the wheels and hood.

Not since I saw the McLaren F1 at the exotic car show last year have I freaked out as much over a car. The 993 Turbo is one of my favorite cars ev4r, but I never thought I would see a Ruf Turbo-R, especially driving here on US roads!
