1982 Porsche 911 Sc Ruf Ctr on 2040-cars
Newburgh, New York, United States
More infos regarding my cat at: ermawolzen@gmx.us . Enthusiast owned, this car was my original car that i owned since 1990 (since I was 19). The title changed hands to
various family members but was always my car, that is, until it was stolen out of my driveway 5 years ago. The car
was recently recovered through litigation, courts, police, and settlement etc.... the story is too long to write
here. TITLE IS CLEAR as theft was never properly reported while I was out of the country.
CAR DOES NOT RUN: It did turn over and had good compression with a new Battery attached. I have had the car in
storage contemplating what to do with it.... I have decided to sell this car and give it to someone that has the
time to bring it back to life. Body is in great condition, but the thieves decided to let every single panel have
some type of scratch or chip on it. Essentially this is a shell, with engine (that needs to be rebuilt),
Transmission, Brake System, Suspension (needs to be assessed). It would be an interesting project to bring it back
to street use, or for the initiated, an interesting track car.
Car was sent to Germany and built up by RUF Automobile GmbH, and Techart GmbH, It is a CTR-Bodied car with front
and rear RUF serial-numbered Bumpers, Wheels, CTR Rear Fender Flares. The Engine and transmission in the car is
from a 1982 SC, the RUF engine is not available. I have another RUF engine available and i will offer it for sale
to the buyer of this car only. I will want minimum $60,000 for that engine if you are interested. I also have a 911
Turbo Transmission I will sell to the Buyer of this car for an additional $5,000. RUF CTR Brakes were replaced with
3.6 Turbo brakes because i read an article from Road and Track that claimed they were better at the time. They were
and the 3.6 Turbo brakes are still on the car. RUF CTR Speedline wheels (not narrow body, not turbo... CTR Wheels)
were made special-order for me by Alois Ruf himself.
While this car was in possession of the last caretakers who took it, they let the car get rained on with the
windows open. I have removed almost all the interior because it was destroyed. The special A/D/S stereo in this car
(used for advertisements) was also stolen from the car. Some Equipment remains, its condition i cannot ascertain.
I will post more pictures tomorrow. Car does not have door handles (damaged by thieves). It comes with the correct
Engine Lid and Spoiler (both of which need to be painted)
You can have either the Aero Mirrors on the car, or the RUF CTR Mirrors (choice up to new buyer). I have a lot of
miscellaneous interior parts that I will sell extremely cheap to the new owner.
Included with the sale (and anything else i can find belonging to this car):
-Mirror Choice up to new owner
-Ruf CTR steering wheel or Momo Techart Steering wheel
-Ruf Badges - NEW
-Ruf Pedals - NEW

Porsche suspends 911 GT3 deliveries amidst fears of spontaneous combustion
Mon, 17 Feb 2014Seeing pictures of Italian supercars burst into flames by the side of the road, as our compatriots at Axis of Oversteer point out, has become something of a usual sight. But a Porsche? Surely those meticulous German engineers have got that taken care of, right?
Not necessarily. Reports coming in from Europe indicate that no fewer than five 911 GT3 coupes have "spontaneously combusted" in the past few weeks, prompting Porsche to launch an investigation. In the meantime, they've reportedly ceased deliveries of the new GT3 while they try to determine what the problem is and work to rectify it.
We wouldn't be surprised to see a recall issued once the problem is resolved, but for now, we'd encourage existing owners to be extra vigilant behind the wheel - or better yet, leave their cars in the garage for the time being. You wouldn't want to drive a 475-horsepower rear-drive sports car through a Polar Vortex, anyway, right?
Porsche will sacrifice profit growth to fund EV development
Tue, Feb 9 2016Porsche is so serious about developing electrified vehicles that it's willing to sacrifice big jumps in profits to fund the investment. After a massive upgrade to the Zuffenhausen plant, the company will build the Mission E EV (above) there in 2020. "Therefore it's clear that we can no longer carry out major leaps on results," the CEO Oliver Blume said about the automaker's financial growth, according to Reuters. Porsche will invest 1.1 billion euros ($1.2 billion) through 2020 to make additional electrified vehicles possible. Around 700 million euros ($765 million) will go into the Zuffenhausen factory to build a new paint shop, assembly plant, and upgrade the engine factory to produce electric motors for hybrids and EVs. The expansion will also bring all Cayman and Boxster assembly under one roof. Outside of Zuffenhausen, the money will improve the research and development center in Weissach and update the sales and marketing department in Ludwigsburg. Blume said Porsche has "many new products in the pipeline," according to Reuters, and he wants as many of those as possible available with some level of electrification. In addition to the Mission E, there are rumors the company might build a 911 plug-in hybrid as soon as 2018. While Blume doesn't forecast big jumps in profits, Porsche should still remain financially successful in the coming years. The automaker doesn't report its 2015 earnings until March 11, but Reuters reports the company's global deliveries topped 200,000 vehicles for the first time ever last year, which could push its operating profit well above 2014's 2.72 billion euros ($3 billion at current rates).

Porsche drivers escape this horrific VIR crash unscathed
Mon, 07 Oct 2013There is no doubting the fact that it takes nerves of steel to be a racecar driver, but the same can also be said for motorsports photographers. Case in point: The American Le Mans Series Oak Tree Grand Prix at the Virginia International Raceway where two Porsche 911 racecars crash hard into the tire barrier, but the dedicated cameraman stays with the shot - diving away only at the last second just as the battered No. 31 car (shown above) comes to rest atop the tire barriers just feet from where he was standing.
The crash occurred when the two Porsches charged hard into a corner. Judging by the video, the white No. 48 car appears to not see the orange No. 31 and the two cars make contact, skidding off track hitting the tire barriers at a high rate of speed. Both drivers walked away from the frightening crash, but the video - posted below - shows just how bad things could have been. Hopefully the close call will serve as a lesson for the woman standing in the track marshal's post who has her back to the racing as the two cars barrel directly toward her.
