RUF is one of my favourite car-brands in Asphalt 8. I bought the RUF CTR 3 last year as my starter's Class S car + first farming car and I grew attached to it (its tune is 5555 5544 because I haven't found many F6 engines).

When I saw the giveaways, which had started a little after I rejoined Asphalt 8 after quitting it several times, I was not entirely shocked, as I was not aware of what the "usual" stuff in TLEs was supposed to be. I got the Rinspeed while getting the Lotus Evora Sport 410 (another farming car) at the same time, which took a lot of grinding and buying a lot of normal Class B cars for both free upgrades and for being able to participate in the Rinspeed TLE (I now have 91 cars, as opposed to the ~20 I started off with in March-April, 2017).

After this giveaway, which I did not find unusual, I saw the RUF giveaways, which I found highly unusual. I didn't think many people owned the RUF RT 12 S, but I thought that everyone would own the RUF CTR 3 by then. I only got a skin out of the RUF CTR 3 event.

Finally, came the 9FF GT9 VMAX event. When I saw this, I was very shocked at the ~14000 token price tag. I had also noticed that all the cars being given away looked the same, and realised that they were all Porsche-based. I decided to grind for the SSC Tuatara, which got me the 9FF GT9 VMAX. Then, I found out about the new Porsche update.

I was very excited originally, but after not succeeding in getting the Cayman or 911 (but succeeding in getting the 959 and Boxter), I am becoming less excited. This is especially due to Gameloft's account-breaking glitch where many people lost access to the game near the final stages of the 911's R&D.

Now, with the four Porsche-based cars removed, I am unsure if they will be returned, or simply rebranded as Porsches.
