By 1987, the 911 was a living legend, and Porsche had already introduced the incredible 959. But as extreme as the 959 was for the mid-1980s, it wasn t as radical as the Ruf CTR. Based on the first-gen 911, the CTR made every other Porsche available at the time seem slow. 1 photo
Recently featured in Hagerty s new YouTube series called Modified, the Ruf CTR debuted in 1987, some 22 years after the German tuner began modifying Porsches. It was based on the 1980s 911 Carrera 3.2, a seemingly strange choice given that Porsche was offering the turbocharged 930.
Ruf opted for the NA version because it was slightly lighter and a bit more aerodynamic. The tuner dropped a twin-turbo 3.4-liter flat-six engine under the hood. Based on Porsche s aspirated 3.2-liter, the engine was good for 463 horsepower and 408 pound-feet (553 Nm) of torque once Ruf was done with it.
