No it's not a first for them, they created a car called the R50 ages ago, sadly it stalled but they've done ground up before.

My take is that the R50 stalled then they wen't to work on this instead.
The R50 is actually the "father" of this vehicle much similar to how the Lamborghini Canto spawned the Diablo VT 6.0 of 2001.No it's not a first for Ruf, they created a car called the Ruf R50 ages ago, sadly it stalled but they've done ground up before.

My take is that the R50 stalled then Ruf went to work on this instead.
It essentially was. It was really never confirmed that the R50 project was dead, and I was told repeatedly by Ruf Auto Centre that Ruf was developing a supercar to continue on the R50 project.Damn that looks almost like a test bed for this car, were any of them ever sold?
