If you buy a factory Ruf car, it will have a Ruf VIN.

That's not entirely accurate, although that's the impression we got from reading articles in the media about their cars back in the 80's and 90's. They used bodies that already had Porsche VIN numbers and crossed those numbers out, then re-stamped a new number adjacent to it.
They do make a complete car now that is all their own. The rest start out as Porsches.
