Yes, it is, RSman. I acquired this Ruf THR after the Flatnose. Very very different cars. The Ruf base model is the Porsche 993 TT S model. w/ smiles Jimmy
Naturally, I like them both, that's why I am keeping them. Altho both are turbos, they are such different cars with their own personalities. One is a single turbo RR, meanwhile, Ruf is a twin turbo four wheel drive. For city driving and realistic usage, the Flatnose is probably more pragmatic and easy to handle. Ruf is a very nervous, sensitive, and delicate to drive. It is a warp machine and is best suited for fast, continuous driving, like crossing the continent. Changing cars from time to time would make one appreciate the virtues even more. w/ smiles Jimmy
