Ruf CTR-3 Is Actually A Very Expensive Bird.

This video popped up on Youtube today. It appears to be the crowd over at the hoon-oriented German publication Auto, Motor und Sport doing what they do best. That is to say, smearing the tires of very expensive machinery all over Germany. I can only assume that the irony of dubbing video of a $615K car, who's predecessor was famously though unofficially tagged "Yellow Bird" by the motoring press, with four minutes of guitar solo from the end of Lynard Skynard's epic Free Bird, is lost on the producers of this little gem. And because of the German hard-on for 70s Southern-Rock chord repetition, we're left with none of that turbo-charged flat-six growl! The works of Alois Ruf usually justify their eye-watering price with mouth-watering performance and quality, and this one also happens to look the business. Still, for all it's flash editing, this clip isn't nearly as effective at inducing gearhead salivation as 9ff's 30-seconds worth of their mid-shipped 911 chugging around a parking lot. Germans, who can figure them out?
