This 996 GT3 Clubsport Has Spent Its Entire 186,000-Mile Life on Track
This 996 GT3 Clubsport may not look unusual at first glance, but closer inspection reveals it's led a storied life few track cars have the privilege of living.

It may seem like a nominal increase, but Porsche has pumped up the battery size on its Cayenne hybrids from 14.1 kWh to 17.9 kWh.
