RUF's 750 HP CTR3 Officially Unleashed

The omniscient Porsche tuning company RUF has managed to take the Cayman model to a higher level than ever before. The CTR 3, as it’s called, features a newly developed body which is not based on any existing mid-engine concept,and is made entirely of Kevlar-carbon composite.

The interior can be designed to the customer’s taste, from a functional lightweight finish to a sporty luxury finish mixed with Alcantara leather. Also the aluminum gearshift lever for the sequential shift transmission was thought as the central unit to the interior. It is obvious that the supercar means business, considering the fact that the speedometer is graded up to 260 mph(420 km/h).

Drivers can put the pedal to the metal safely as the passenger compartment is protected by the latest version of the famous RUF Integrated Roll Cage. The safety feature is integrated in the A pillar and tube frame, also the doors come with integrated side impact protection beams. The car itself has suffered major transformations in order to be able to support the new mid-engine design. The CTR 3’s twin-turbocharged 3.8 liter flat-six engine has an output of 750hp at 7,100 rpm while the maximum torque is 708 lb-ft (960 Nm) at 4,000 rpm.

It can accelerate from 0-100 km/h (62mph) in jut 3.2 seconds and reaches a maximum speed of 236 mph (380km/h). In addition to that, a staggered set of 19-inch wheels in the front and 20-inch wheels in the rear, along with a widebody fitting 335/30/20 tires in the back, comple the overall look of the performance monster.
