The RUF CTR (Group C, Turbo Ruf) also known as the CTR Yellowbird or simply Yellowbird, is a limited-production, high performance sports car manufactured by German automobile manufacturer RUF Automobile.
Introduced for the 1987 model year and based on the Porsche 911, the CTR featured an enlarged and highly tuned version of Porsche's 3.2 litre flat-six cylinder engine, lightened body panels, an integrated roll cage (adding chassis stiffness in addition to occupant safety), upgraded suspension and braking systems, a custom-designed transmission, and several unique trim pieces such as polyurethane bumpers, and the use of the side-mounted oil filler necessitated by relocating the oil tank forward to clear the inter-cooler on that side.
Only 29 CTR Yellowbird cars were made, and PARA64 brings them to life in 1:64 scale in a number of original factory colours.
This is the 1st release of PARA64's RUF CTR1 tooling, featuring free rolling wheels, detailed external decoration, separate parts for lights and presented in a clear plastic case.
The detailed grille, silver wheels, coffee table sized spoiler and body lines lines are faithfully reproduced from factory issued data as always with our fully licensed models. License obtained from RUF Automobile.
