Equipment
3746/754hp twin-turbo six, mid-engine, 6-speed, cross-drilled carbon brakes, tinted glass, suede steering wheel, aluminum shift knob.
Condition
One of 30 CTR3s and one of two in Guards Red. Represented with three owners and 4,600 miles from new. And is still new condition-wise other than a tiny touch up on the nose.
Market commentary
It shares components with the Porsche 997 and has classic Porsche styling cues, but the RUF CTR3 isn't just a hotted up 911. Far from it. It has its own chassis, a mid-engine layout, and Kevlar-carbon body panels, and that's before we get to the 754-hp engine. The market for these bespoke hypercars is small, but RUF is regarded more as a manufacturer in its own right, not as a back-alley tuner, and its cars are collectible. Another CTR3 sold in Monterey in 2018 for $650,000 and a then-new, improved CTR3 Clubsport model sold in Monaco the same year for $1.28M, which makes this barely used CTR3 look realistically priced.
