[@JelloTypeR]

I’ve loved the Ruf cars since I first found them in Gran turismo. They have the most iconic wheel design of any car with Brabus following closely behind. What a woman Aloissa is.

Same. Back in the 90's I just loved that game and that was my favorite car!

I love this one Magnus. That girl has a unique style all her own. Even the old pictures of her show her in elegant clothes and sneakers. Her Mom and Dad are the two most stylish car company owners in the world and they are are all truly artists. The cars just happen to be their medium. Last but not least, the Yellow Bird is my favorite all time car so this episode really a great one. Thank you so much for making these!

[@bigbird2451]

I got a ride to Burbank airport once in the late 80's in a RUF Porsche. I can't remember the color, but it was not a yellow one. I've never been thrown back into my seat that violently before or since.

[@MalcolmDesigns]

Sick car, a great story, and a beautiful owner from a legendary family. Thanks, Magnus and Aloisa.

[@TheFastrider76]

Aloisa is so graceful and mesmerizing that Magnus did not interrupt her...LOL what a fantastic family history's and tell telling story.

[@mybloodtypeKRYLON]

Aloisa is something else man , well spoken and super knowledgeable. She might be my new celebrity crush 😂

[@pavelsuslov]

It was a pleasure to be a part of this film - RUF OPP let’s go!!🔥🔥

[@robhorsey9906]

I got the chance to meet Mr. Ruf at the 50th Porsche Parade in Hershey, PA in the early 2000s. He brought the original Yellowbird and it was such a thrill to see the actual car. I told him I was a big fan of his company. He asked if I owned one and I said, "not yet unfortunately." He said "well, stay with us!" Very down to earth guy, and nice to see that was passed down to his daughter! Still working on owning one of his amazing cars...

[@Squiddy97]

As a Gran Turismo kid, Ruf is every bit as important as Porsche. Had no idea back when I was 5 how important this particular car was though. ❤️

[@MershedPerderders]

I'm not sure if I'd agree that Ruf is EVERY bit as important as Porsche. I mean, the former based their designs off of the latter's creations.

[@ts_macan_911]

They improve a great design. Porsche him self said improving is harder then inventing. Also Porsche did this before making the first Porsche. But only Porsche is PORSCHE

[@rafaminus5366]

​@@ts_macan_911Only Porsche is Porsche. Only must see a 930 turbo. Iconic

[@craigkolstad1709]

Magnus - what a satisfying video! Thank you for giving me the opportunity to live vicariously through you, and experience a journey in such a desirable piece of automotive history and to learn more about Aloisa and her auto experiences. In addition, the sound quality of this video was next level in quality - bravo to the tech crew who achieved this!

[@marcb1164]

I remember dreaming about these as a teenager and reading about them in Car and Driver as well as Road & Track magazines. Alois Ruf is a legend and it seems the apple didn’t fall far from the tree. Great video Magnus. One legend and the daughter of a legend continuing the legacy! Great to see!!!

[@jaycar06ify]

What a wonderful human being and a wholesome story. Thanks Magnus.

[@georgedreisch2662]

Love your inclusion of the historic films and photographs, the family history in general, as presented by Ms Ruff. I’m assuming the six speed transmission with higher reduction in the lower gears and 1:1 6th, with taller differential gearing, to reduce parasitic loses, and exploit torque capacity? Thanks for sharing.

[@jimbob67]

I worked in a tyre shop in London in the 90s. I was told to pick up a customer car so we could change the tyres. I will never ever forget that day. A RUF 911 twin turbo. I still cannot believe a 19/20 year was handed the keys to what turned out to be a very very fast car. Raced a sports bike, we both got stopped by the police. I was very lucky not to loose my license or go to jail. Triple figures in a 30 zone. I got to the shop and said to my boss you better take that car back 😂 I still get scared thinking about it to this day 🙄

[@Schuey_M]

Chose this in Gran Turismo so many times because it was the only Porsche in there at the time. Was a handful to control but was always a serious weapon! Love it!

[@philipmcc5265]

Same. Hundreds of times are around the 'Ring in this. I wish they would bring it back, although GT7 has tons of great Porsches, like the RSR, 550, 356, etc. Especially cool in VR.

It's not a Porsche, it's an RUF

Great video! And what a wonderful woman Aloisa is.. so smart and knowledgeable and beautiful... such a badass car!

[@iandavis8755]

I have had the privilege of being in the passenger seat of one of these cars. It was lightly and tastefully modified, and made around 500hp and 475 ft lbs of torque at the wheels. I have never been in another street legal car that accelerates as hard as one of these...50km/hr to 250 took less than 8 seconds, and 250-300km/hr was less than 10 seconds more. My mechanic had just done a bunch of work to it for one of his customers, and asked if I had ever been in a turbo Porsche before. I told him I had never been in any at all, but had been in some pretty quick vehicles. He needed to take it for a road test, and invited me to ride with him. The car didn't have the stock CTR rims like the one in this video, it had 3 piece BBS wheels. It had a full roll cage, fiberglass and carbon seats with Schroth harnesses, and aftermarket carbon brakes. It was an unforgettable experience, and I am forever grateful I went (My mechanic would end up being murdered by a family member several years later). The only vehicle I have been in since that felt even close to the RUF, was a modified 2010 Shelby GT500 with an upgraded Kenne Bell supercharger, and a slew of weight reduction mods.
