Their conclusion:

Such a sum may seem ludicrous to those who can only justify spending six-figures in exchange for the prestige of owning a 911, but it’s actually quite reasonable from another perspective. After all, the Ruf 3800S/381 provides better straight-line performance, simply superior handling, and far more exclusivity than a 2007 Carrera S Cabriolet with the X51 upgrade — which carries an MSRP of $109,700 without any additional factory options. Though the 911 may have more street cred as far as the general public is concerned, it can’t match the balance, poise, and general composure of the 3800S/381’s mid-engine chassis. For those who value ability over image, that makes this Ruf a highly desirable machine.

Totally agree.
