The 911's changed very little in terms of layout since the 60's, the other models like the Cayman, Boxster, including the limited production Carerra GT and 918 Spyder were Mid engined, the only other Front engined Porsche's, besides the 924,944,928,and the 968, is the Cayenne and Macan SUVs and the Panamera.

So, even though the current 911 is on a totally new platform (3rd one since the original) it's still powered by a flat 6 engined in the rear, and even though the whole car is almost twice the size of the original 911, it's largely, in some ways unchanged, and it's the only rear engined Porsche in the current line-up so far.


Actually if I remember correctly a lot has changed throughout the years and I'm not talking about the engine. That engine never changes thats the reason I brought up the v8 RUF and I was talking about modern Porsches layout engine. I've spent half my childhood playing NFS Porsche unleashed, classics are my favorites. Even clarkson brought it up that unlike the design (squashed beetle) and the engine there has been drastic changes esspecially last gen. I personally like Porsches old and new (prefer old) but I hate How people view RUF

I remember driving the Yellowbird on Gran Turismo 4. Maybe it's not so bad that EA is not letting anyone use Porsche... The truth is unraveling...

If it wasn't for the 918 I wouldn't really care for the modern Porsches, the Boxster and cayman are nice but RUF already has an improved version. I mean would it kill Forza and GT to add new RUFs. I remember playing the early Gran turismos (1 to 4) that RUFs were the cars to look out for they were always dominant in racing.

Wow. I've gained a little more respect for RUF today. But aren't Porsches Rear-Engined? At least the old ones are. (I really don't keep up with Porsche after 2000.)

Almost all sport Porsches are rear engine except the 918 it's mid engined. RUF for me is better than Porsches especially the new ones it carried Porsches true message while modern Porsches just want to satisfy deep pocketed people. RUF Yellowbird obliterated the f40 and 959 setting a fastest time on the Nurburgring and having a top speed of 211 mph. It was the new benchmark and the fastest car in the 80s. It's succesor the CTR2 was the 2nd fastest car in the world after the McLaren F1 and cost a fraction of the F1.

RUF is a Tuning division, right? If so it doesn't matter if its a Porsche or RUF besides performance.

Actually RUF is independent manufacturer that uses unmarked porsche chasis to build their cars but other than that the cars are 100% different i mean have u seen a rear engine V8 porsche? no but a RUF yes. However a porsche owner can take his car to Ruf so they can RUF it up. RUF definitely deserves more credit but people only know it as a porsche look a like

it resembles the 997 Turbo, it's not a same car. Just upload them as the correct models, they won't care about your "protest"
