As the official importer and headquarters for the region, RUF North America assists clients in bringing in their new orders to the US through our HQ which also holds our showroom with active inventory and configuration lounge. The delivery program entails an experience like no other where the team takes the customer on the track with their own RUF vehicle to test the car and learn its limits. Thanks to its partnership with The Concours Club, RUF North America has its showroom in a state-of-the-art facility located within the club grounds to help provide clients with the experience they deserve.
With the 2.5-mile race track right in its backyard, the RUF North America showroom is perfectly located to showcase these vehicles in the best environment. This SCR is the first of 70 SCRs that will be made and is the second model developed on our carbon monocoque chassis. Powered by our 510 horsepower, water-cooled 4.0-liter flat-six mated to RUF Automobile’s own six-speed transmission, this is only the second of its kind. Launched with the CTR Anniversary, RUF’s new carbon monocoque platform is the future of our company as a manufacturer and a remarkable piece of automotive engineering history.
RUF is the only vehicle manufacturer making a carbon monocoque chassis with a rear engine and manual transmission. Weighing only 2,866 lbs, the power-to-weight ratio is sensational on the RUF SCR providing an incredibly emotional driving experience. Thanks to the design of its own chassis, RUF developed it to have dual wishbone pushrod suspension both in the front and in the rear as well. While still paying homage to the iconic design everyone knows and loves, the RUF SCR is still a modern take on an iconic line. With proportions that still resemble that of an aircooled car, the size of the vehicle is still small making it nimble and lightweight.
This example is finished in Ivory over black and grey Alcantara. Equipped with RUF’s lightweight wheel that has a split-spoke design, the elegant yet sporty spec continues its motorsport orientation on the inside. This SCR has iconic carbon lollipop bucket seats with pepita inserts and on the door cards, can be seen to have exposed carbon paneling with lightweight pull tabs. Throughout the cabin, the interior has red stitching and red RUF SCR logos inside which matches the red calipers and red RUF logos on the centerlock caps. Now that SCR safely made it to the hands of RUF North America, we can’t wait to see it on roads and tracks in the future.
