CaDA RUF GT C63006W

This was my first CaDa model purchase and first MOC that wasn’t from the name brand we all know. As a Porsche enthusiast, I knew I had to have this set the minute I saw it but was nervous to buy it online from an unknown-to-me brand and with an overseas manufacturer and shipment position. Well, all my fears have been erased. This set may be the best Porsche build I’ve seen and certainly the best I’ve built personally. I ordered the set for Black Friday and had it in hand in less than a week, shipped from a USA location. The packaging is outstanding and easily matches the big brand offers, especially based on price. The blocks are of exceptional quality, and I did not have an issue with a single one, either by way of fit or breakage. And the parts themselves are fabulous. The gold printed hood and roof are fantastic, and the wheels with the integrated brake rotors make this perfect. The build itself was fun, and the direction manual was easy to follow. If I had to nitpick, the only drawback with the manual is the size. It’s small based on the set’s size and complexity, and I had to break out some glasses to see it in a few spots. My only actual complaint would be based on the stickers and that’s a personal issue. I despise sets with stickers. That being said, this set included only 6 stickers in total and were simply placed. So, my only issue is that the directions included placing the stickers AFTER the entire build was complete, making it much more difficult to place them straight. It feels like it would be a simple fix to the manual to include adding the stickers to the specific parts at the time they are installed, or with a reference to the sticker installation at the back should you not want to use them at all. The build being black, the stickers are barely noticeable and leaving them off entirely is certainly an option that doesn’t change the overall look. Overall, I am beyond pleased with the CaDA product and it’s easily on par with the other major brand. Based on the price (for honesty sake, I paid $93.50 in total w/ shipping) and sheer beauty of the set, it may be a while before I go back to the other brand. So, if you’re on the fence about buying secondary brands, don’t be where CaDA is concerned. Their designs, parts, packaging, etc. are all top notch. I’ve already ordered and received my 2nd set, the Porsche/RUF CTR Yellowbird C62003W. It’s waiting under the Christmas tree.

Der Porsche Ruf hat viel Spaß im Bauprozess gemacht und ist ein gut durchdachtes Model. Es ist optisch wie auch technisch sehr gut Aufgebaut und es ist für den Anwender leicht es zu bauen.
Ich muss nur einen Stern abziehen, da derzeit die Akkubox nicht funktioniert und ich diese Reklamieren muss.

A very positive construction experience. Excellent packaging, perfect instructions, realistic construction design. Excellent aesthetic relationship with reality.

As my fifth large CaDA car model the RUF GT has far exceeded my expectations. Areas that stand out are the excellent spring-loaded doors, the quality and attention to detail on printed elements (especially the dashboard gauges), and the silver-printed brake disk/directional tire/rim insert combination. The absence of external blue pins is also very much appreciated.

It is hard to find flaws here, but HOG steering would have been nice, the seats could be improved, and it should have been a no-brainer to include extra unprinted panels to make the hood/roof striping optional. But these are minor points and it's been some time since I was this impressed with a set. Other brands now have some work to do to catch up!

This set is amazing, let their be no doubt. The designers at CaDA did an incredible job with the shaping while keeping the build approachable, light, and affordable.

I also appreciate the fantastic boxart, and inclusion of bespoke wheels, metallic gold printed panels, and inclusion of black pins to maintain a clean final product.

Overall, an extremely strong entry by CaDA. I am coming to expect excellent things from them and have not been disappointed yet.

La qualité la voiture est super sauf que en rc la direction n'est pas très précise et la direction et l'accélération avec la commande n'est pas proportionnelle comme sur les Lego technic et il manquait une petite pièce mais j'ai fait une réclamation et cada va me l'envoyer

Looks good

This build was awesome to say the least. The pieces all came together nicely, and the end product was a dream to admire.

CaDA shows one more time that they are great with technic. The car looks amazing, has great functions (most awesome for me are the doors)

But its not 100% perfect - why? See it in my german video :)

Why the blue pins and why the stickers??

...otherwise the best Porsche Model you can get..
