"It was deemed the “Yellowbird” by Road & Track editors during a two-day event at VW’s Ehra-Lessien track where the journalists were collecting data for a story called, “The Fastest Car in the World.” The blow-off valve for the twin-turbo, (the only twin-turbo 911 in the world at the time) chirps like a canary, further validating the name. During that event it reached 211 mph. Alois Ruf custom built the car for the event. He took a standard 930 and replaced the steel doors, hood, and decklid with aluminum ones, modified the engine significantly (including two huge turbos) and installed the Ruf five-speed gearbox that helped build his company. The car weighs only 2,662 pounds, coupled with 469 horsepower and 408 ft.-lb. of torque. Only 29 were built and they are known to outclass almost any high performance car of the time."
—Official description[1]

The 1987 RUF CTR (Group C, Turbo Ruf), also known as the Yellowbird is a rear-engined supercar by RUF featured in Forza Motorsport 4 as part of the June Meguiar's Car Pack and in Forza Motorsport 5 as part of the VIP Car Pack. It also appears in Forza Horizon and Forza Horizon 2.

Based on the 1987 Porsche 911 Carrera 3.2, RUF increased the engine displacement from 3.2L to 3.4L, gave it twin-turbochargers and twin intercoolers, and a new five-speed manual gearbox designed by RUF. Lots of upgrades makes the CTR a powerful and lightweight supercar.

The CTR is the fastest production car in the 1980s, also the first twin turbo 911 in history.
