RUF History part 1

[LittleChin21]

baptized in oil, thats how we do

[daitantamashii]

I love how happy you can tell he is when he's talking about the beginning and roots of the company. That's pure, true enthusiast love right there.

[tundracam]

A great man!!! I was thinking,when i have money,i want to put my 02tundra SR5 on a cargoplane to Germany,have drop off at RUF,and have him turn it into a toyota tundra code name (T.Tundra RRT twinturbo). Lmao

[jomask]

Thanks for uploading this. What is the name of the music at 0.50?

[seroyer2]

This is a work shop, run on love my god amazing.

[offitcock]

what an eye brow wow!

[vithaj92]

Before these guys began to trick out Porsches and eventually changing pretty much everything about them and placing RUF badges on the cars, I take it they serviced, restored and repaired Porsches. But why where they so famous for it? Why didnt people send their Porsches... To Porsche? Was RUF simply better, cheaper or was it perhaps the restoration that was their key advantage. Or could it have been positioning that led to their success? Any type of answer is highly appreciated!

Ruf doesn't copy Porsche if u look in history Porsche in some cases follow ruf b4 ruf had 3.8 ruf had it b4 Porsche in there rgt for example

[chomplit]

it's Brahms Symphony #1, middle of the song...

[chuchoarteaga24]

What is the name of classical music that is heard from 5:29 minutes someone will know? please someone help me ... thanks!

[Pederzen100]

RUF takes the porsche and strips it down/improves it, thats basically it. :)

[BMan100]

you sir. ARE AWSOME.

[GTAgamesfans]

RUF IS A PORSCHE AIN'T IT?RUF WAS JUST COPYING WHAT PORSCHE DID!

[coltsuperocean10]

@GTAgamesfans ...Its not as simple as that! Thats like saying "McDonalds just copied Burger King" for example.

[Corbon440]

Love the 901 story.

[blackjin21]

ive always wonderd what the hell was RUF

its like NISMO for porsche

[MujaRagHeadKillaUK]

@blackjin21 I'd say RUF is more like Spoon Sports or Mugen for Honda. Nismo is Nissans own racing division while RUF for instance is a completely seperate company.

[cairnsguy22]

I met Alois today, sat down and spoke with him for about 2 hours. Brilliant man.

[sydneyfc]

Thank you so much for this video. Porsche's are my obsession and the Ruf family and company have played such an invaluable role in the companies history. What great insight and beautiful videography.

[okitwas5seconds]

[hialeahrider69]

His command of English is excellent. Also his engineering.

[TheCenturion1]

@cosmicdingo "His command of English is excellent. Also his engineering"

The truth is, English is the easiest language ever made. The most learner-friendly language in the world--No multiple singulars and plurals, nouns follow their natural genders, no awful adjectives, almost no grammatical cases except for the personal pronouns I think, etc. That's what I love most with the English language. English isn't my native by the way.

Ruf Engineering? Yes, it truly is excellent!

[sidewayssam]

if you like this,have a look at mine for my ruf trip,i went to the factory,met alois,got access to everything,i also went round the ring with stephan!all videos on my profile have a shufty.

[zx3oo]

Alois RUF is a MASTER

[lauser71]

He picked-up english when he was young and you might guess he's got several international customers.

[razorblade1995]

What was the Porsche and Peugeot story he was talking about?

[kza7]

awesome upload

[payndew]

My grandfather owns number 67 of the 901 Porsche Series.Only 1200 miles. Red with gold porsche emblem..and white side vinyl strip with porsche going accross. White wall whees, and a sand grain beige interior with white light up dials. His car is estimated by Barret Jackson to be worth over 3.5 million dollars.

[ahmer9800]

no... one... cares.

[payndew]

hey bro suck my balls how bout that Fucking asshole.

[jonsta09]

ruf is my favortest word ever!!!

[acdcrocker523]

my last name is ruf

[851corsa]

No. ruf takes a standard porsche and rebuilds it so comprehensively that they are then registered as a ruf.

[S200069]

o .... da...... Ruf makes porsche means ipod/iphone makes apple, got it ?

[S200069]

great video, thank you very much. Ruf makes porsche.

[razorblade1995]

No, RUF customizes Porsches.

[ramairezslp]

exactly right, ruf gets undesignated models from the porsche stable and customizes them until the have a ruf vin number , ruf is not owned by porsche and has nothing to do with porsche besides the technology that ruf designs and porsche has used in the past

[lauser71]

Yes. It does! It's handmade art. And Ruf thankfully does what Porsche fails doing now a days. Real sports feeling and perfection.

[razorblade1995]

Where is the evidence?

[lauser71]

Ruf is just evidence by itself. E.g. the fastest road licensed car in Nardo last year with 361km/h beating the GT2 by far. And these days just coming up with the first electric 911 ever...

[razorblade1995]

Dude, don't get off the topic because you make no sense.

[lauser71]

Don't get me wrong but you have no clue, right?! By the way the Porsche/Peugeot story is about the 901 (first 911), however this number was a trade mark of Peugeot which forced Porsche to rebrand to 911.

[lauser71]

Thanks for going ahead making my day. There'll be others teaching you, razorbubble. Have a nice day or dial 911 ;). Never mind.

[razorblade1995]

My pleasure idiot. Now piss off.

[lauser71]

It's so amusing to see you not being able bailing yourself out. No worries, you'll find your way back to edjucated language.

[lauser71]

You being helpless with no argument but infantile cuss words was reason enough to answer one very last time. Heavy burden growing up...

[emerica420]
