RUF Automobile
As a registered automaker, RUF has the unique advantage of producing their own vehicles, allowing them to take restoration to new heights. RUF combines classic Porsche designs with bespoke engineering, resulting in breathtaking performance machines that embody the spirit of the original marque.
As a family-owned business, traces its roots back to 1939 when Alois Ruf Sr. founded an automotive repair and service garage in Germany. It was Alois Ruf Jr., however, who transformed the company into a high-performance car manufacturer specializing in Porsche modifications. In the 1970s, Alois Jr. became the head of RUF and, under his leadership, the company began producing its own vehicles. Since then, RUF has become a legendary name in the Porsche community, creating some of the most powerful and distinctive Porsche-based cars in the world.
RUF’s dedication to pushing boundaries is exemplified by their proprietary engine builds, which range from turbocharged monsters to naturally aspirated powerhouses. Their engineering prowess extends beyond performance, with meticulous attention to aerodynamics, chassis dynamics, and interior refinement. RUF’s creations represent the pinnacle of automotive restoration, offering a harmonious blend of heritage and innovation.
