The Yellow Bird was developed in 1987 as the newest RUF high speed sports car and received its
certification for normal road use. This incredible car, a 469 bhp twin turbo coupé, exceeded the top speed world
record for production cars on the Nardo Racetrack at a rate of 342 km/h!! It was at the time, and still today, a
truly astonishing pace. In addition, this same year RUF Automobile GmbH became an approved manufacturer with the
U.S. authorities for safety and emissions (NHTSA and EPA).
In 1988 sponsored by Road&Track Magazine, the Yellow Bird won the Fastest Car in the World
Competition. It has Aluminium Doors and Bonnet which reduced the weight approxm 400 pounds. The Engine is a 3.4l
twin turbo 469hp flat six, with torque of 408lb-ft @5100 RPM.
