The cars of the Ruf team are some of the fastest and most exotic of the world’s supercars. They are also the most reliable, which endears them to serious enthusiasts all over. Now, from the Ruf stable comes the CTR3. Originally thought by many to be based on the Cayman S, the car is actually based on a 911 with new Ruf built carbon fibre and aluminum structure. One thing is for certain. This beast is fast! With a 0-100 k time of 3.2 seconds and a 235 mph top speed, this will be the vehicle of choice for a few lucky Gumballers and Bullrunners for sure.
