The Clubsport version of the Porsche 968 was designed for track and the road from home to the track. It was more of a weekend racer rather than a daily driver. But it could do both.

Porsche built only sports-cars back in the '90s. It was its specialty and even the 928 GT was considered a sporty vehicle and had special versions. The 968, on the other hand, was designed on the base of the 944, which was used for racing in various parts of the world.

The 968 Club Sport was designed with racing in mind. The exterior looked almost the same as any other 968. With its long hood and short cabin, it had the image of a big engine in the front, even though there was just an inline-four unit. In the rear, a 968 CS badge, and a small spoiler were installed on the liftgate.

Inside, the car was stripped down to its essentials. It was fitted as standard with slim bucket seats, but there was a no-cost option for the regular seats. There was no bench in the back. Moreover, instead of a big shelf above the trunk area, there was a flimsy piece of fabric. The car came without a radio or an AC-unit, but these could have been added from the options list. To open or close the windows, a manual system was installed instead of the powered one.

The 968 CS was fitted with larger wheels, larger disc brakes, and stiffer suspension. Further reinforcements were installed in the engine compartment between the dampers' towers. The engine was a 3.0-liter unit fitted with the variable valve timing named VarioCam from the standard 968. It offered 240 hp, like the rest of its stablemates. But when prepped for the race-track, it could get some more with new parts installed.
