"Dubbed the “Yellowbird” by a group of journalists during a two-day test drive event, the 1987 RUF CTR Yellowbird also earns its name thanks to the canary-like chirping of this twin-turbo’s blow off valve. Just 29 of these cherished classics were built – but you’ll be able to take it out any time in Forza Horizon."
—Official description (Forza Horizon)[1]

The 1987 RUF CTR Yellowbird - abbreviated as "RUF Yellowbird" - is a rear-engine, rear-wheel drive supercar by RUF.

It appears in Forza Motorsport 4 as part of the June Meguiar's Car Pack, Forza Motorsport 5 as part of the VIP Membership, Forza Horizon and Forza Horizon 2.

Synopsis[]

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 acronym CTR is composed of the words Group "C" "T"urbo "R"uf.

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