There are Porsche-based cars.
And then there is RUF.

The difference is not just power, not just the name, and not just rarity. The difference is the feeling that this was not simply a car that was modified — it was reimagined. That is exactly what makes this RUF RT12 R so special.

This example is one of only two RT12 R built with rear-wheel drive. That alone makes it extremely rare. But this car is not just about a number. Rear-wheel drive in an RT12 R means more character, more directness, more RUF in its purest form. No unnecessary safety net, no softness — just a car for someone who understands exactly what they are looking at.

Finished in Light Ivory, the car has an almost surreal presence. Not loud, not fashionable, not predictable. The colour makes it more elegant, more unusual and even more distinctive. An RT12 R in this shade does not look like a car trying to impress. It looks like a car that already knows its own importance.

It has remained with one owner from new, which suits the car perfectly. Not a passed-around collector piece, not a car with a complicated story, but one with a clear line from the beginning.

Technically, this RT12 R is in another league: fitted with the RUF CTR3 engine and the CTR3 front end. That gives it not just the RUF name, but the DNA of one of the most radical cars ever to come out of Pfaffenhausen. It does not simply make the RT12 R more powerful or more special — it turns it into something that sits between road car, coachbuilt machine and myth.

This is not a car for someone simply looking for a rare 911.
This is a RUF for someone who knows that the truly important cars often do not need the loudest stories.
