2000 Porsche 911 GT3 - First Look
Sadly, the only GT3s sold in the U.S.-at least in the foreseeable future-will be the not-for-highway-use Clubsport variant, which includes a full rollcage bolted to the chassis and a Nomex-covered driver seat sans side airbags. These cars will see competition in the American Le Mans series, SCCA's USRRC, and Porsche Club of America events. Anyone saying this race-track version of the 996 isn't exhilarating just isn't standing on the gas hard enough
