They've been to this rodeo before, things will be fine.
I know that they are considered a manufacturer. Alpina and AMG are not and they are not changing the VIN numbers on the cars that they buy from the respective manufacturers. You can buy the replacement parts direct from the dealer, with RUF you can not. They are not creating the cars like RUF is with this one. They are still buying the car and modifying it. RUF is building it from scratch and it just so happens to look identical to a 911.
