Over there, I was fortunate enough to meet Alois Ruf himself. He is truly a great guy and arranged that I get a full tour of the shop.
The place is incredible and left me speechless... They do everything from selling spare parts, to restoring classics (I saw the #18 901 almost completed there!), to making cars from scratch (CTR3). I took some pics but was asked to not post any online. The following video does however give a clear idea of exactly the same type of tour I got:


Before leaving Mr. Ruf asked if there was anything else he could do for me. I said that last two things that would really make my day would be a picture with him, and if he could sign the door sills I bought. He gladly did both.
Best. Day. Ever.

So, enough rambling... I present Rufio:

i'm so jelly of you now !!!

You sir, have good taste.

Nice buy *tu*

Thanks guys, I appreciate it.

Who had this design idea for the third light?

What do you mean? I want to remove the 'basket handle' because I find it won't flow well with the aggressive CTR2 rear bumper.
I slipped the Cayman light on the rear shelf earlier and I find it looks better (just imagine the current 3rd brake light out of there). I still gotta see how the wing looks, but so far I like the idea as shown in the pic best.

I was just saying that, although very "original", that handle-like light bar is really a weird design idea...
 
Folle folle folle! *tu*

Des BBS LM rouge en plus, ça va être sexy wild cet été ce petit bijou!
