The Porsche 911 Club Coupe Is a Carrera T, But Rarer
Porsche and the PCA unveiled the car Sunday night at the club's annual Parade, this year held in Oklahoma City. As the name implies, it's based on
the Carrera T
, the lightest and most purist-aimed version of the current 911, and the only Carrera model with a manual transmission. Porsche will build just 70 examples—the first will go in its museum, PCA will raffle off the second, while PCA members will be able to purchase the rest.

Each of these Club Coupes has been finished in a unique shade of blue, Azurro California Metallic for the 2006 model and Club Blau for the 2016 model. This car is finished in a new color called Sholar Blue, a sort of metallic version of Club Blau. There are all sorts of other visual tweaks, like a Sport Design front fascia with red accents, a unique finish for the 20- and 21-inch RS Spyder Design wheels, a "Club Coupe" decal on the doors, and red striping and a commemorative badge on the engine lid.
Inside, it's even more exuberant, with unique red-white-and-blue trim for the seats and the interior of the glovebox, red and blue stitching, a commemorative badge embossed into the center console, and a PCA logo just behind the shifter. The Porsche Club of America name is also printed on the door sills, and there are little LED puddle lamps on the bottom of the doors with the special 70th anniversary PCA logo. There'll be no doubting you're in something special from the cockpit.
Mechanically, it's all standard Carrera T fare, which consists of the 911's base 388-horsepower 3.0-liter twin-turbo flat-six, a six-speed manual transmission, adaptive sport suspension, sports exhaust, and rear-wheel steering. Owners can also buy a special Porsche Design chronograph to match their car.

Porsche hasn't announced pricing yet, but you can expect it to be at least a bit more expensive than the $140,950 for a regular 2026 911 Carrera T. Plus, of course, the cost of a $56 annual PCA membership.

Tesla, Inc. (TSLA) Isn't Being Targeted By Trump's Copper Tariffs, Says Jim Cramer
We recently published . ABC is one of the stocks Jim Cramer recently discussed. Tesla, Inc. (NASDAQ:TSLA) is the world's largest electric vehicle manufacturer. Cramer has discussed the firm regularly in his morning shows this year. The CNBC TV host believes that Tesla, Inc. (NASDAQ:TSLA) narrative should be driven by humanoid robots and self-driving instead of EV deliveries. The shares have lost 18.3% year-to-date as investors have fluctuated from being optimistic about self-driving and robotaxi plans to worrying about Musk's tensions with President Trump and falling vehicle deliveries. Cramer discussed Tesla, Inc. (NASDAQ:TSLA) in the context of President Trump announcing a 50% tariff on copper: 'Okay so Tesla has a 180 pounds of copper. These electric vehicles are filled with copper. And a typical ICE vehicle has far fewer. Now candidly, Musk is trying to get this down to 40 pounds. But if you didn't know better you would say boy this is really aimed at, at Tesla. . . If I were Elon, which I'm most certainly not. . .I would say holy, he's coming after me, I'm a copper user. But everybody uses copper. . . most of the world's copper is used by China.' Previously, Cramer had discussed Tesla, Inc. (NASDAQ:TSLA) after a William Blair downgrade: '[On William Blair downgrade citing EV and regulatory credit loss as driving the decison] I read and plus the story about China and how they're lagging. And I come back and say okay, when you make those two points, tomorrow there'll be someone who says, look it's not a caa company. It's humanoid and it's self driving. And that ability to be able to select why you like the stock of Tesla is something that is beginning to annoy me. I happen to like Tesla but I'm just saying I like it for humanoid, I like it for self driving. Forget about the car because those are better markets. But these guys are like, the deliveries are bad, I'm gonna downgrade. You know come on, just be consistent. Be consistent. This thing is a juggernaut when it comes to humanoid and when it comes to self driving and that's what I care about.' While we acknowledge the potential of TSLA as an investment, our conviction lies in the belief that some AI stocks hold greater promise for delivering higher returns and have limited downside risk.

Myles Rowe Makes History with First INDY NXT Win at Iowa
With 14 laps to go in Saturday's Indy NXT race at Iowa Speedway, Myles Rowe muscled the high line passing championship leader Dennis Hauger for the lead en route to his first victory in the series. With the win, Rowe becomes the first Black driver to win in the IndyCar feeder series. The win follows a breakout second season for the driver, who finished second last month at WWT Raceway behind Lochie Hughes. "We've been working, a minute, for this," Rowe told Fox Sports. "We knew we had the pace it was just about waiting until the last lap of the race and seeing that we could do it. I'm so ecstatic, it's really good. Abel Motorsports, they work so hard, my family, my support system, is amazing. I finally did it for them, we don't stop here, we're looking for a lot more than this." Rowe's second year in INDY NXT is make or break as the sophomore driver looks to impress the IndyCar teams and find a seat in this upcoming silly season or the next. Rowe joined INDY NXT following his 2023 championship-winning season in the USF Pro 2000, becoming the first Black driver to win in an IndyCar-sanctioned event in 2021, and following it up with the championship in his third year. With qualifying cancelled Friday, as the track was placed under a tornado warning, Rowe started fourth and played the waiting game. With Iowa's repave, the track is flat and the inside line is highly favored, with drivers only going high in passing attempts and to deal with traffic. Rowe waited until Hauger was stuck behind a lapped car and used his oval experience to make the pass coming to the start/finish line with 13 laps to go. He would lead the remaining laps. "I knew that with the nature of the track being basically flat, especially starting on new tires, passing at the beginning wasn't going to be realistic, trying to wrap it around the outside," Rowe told Fox Sports Georgia Henneberry. "I knew I would have to come to traffic and be a little bit strategic and patient." Hauger settled for second in just his second oval race of his career, coming to Indy NXT for his rookie season from the European Formula ladder. Hauger has been the runaway star of the Indy NXT season with five wins, but the learning curve is steep on ovals. Hanging on to second showed a better understanding at Iowa than in St. Louis at WWT Raceway last month, where Hauger faded from pole to fifth. Hauger's Andretti teammate Salvador De Alba took the final spot on the podium after starting sixth. This is De Alba's first career podium in the series.

This Low-Mile Acura Integra Type R May Fetch Big Money at Auction
Acura and Honda specialist RealTime is selling off a very low-mileage 2001 Integra Type R. This example has the potential to be the next big-money Acura, with low-mileage NSXs fetching top dollar already. RealTime is synonymous with the Type R, having secured multiple touring car championships when the cars were new. With the Acura NSX having recently cracked the $1 million mark at auction, collectors of modern-era Japanese vintage machines are having a look around to see what else might hit that next record. Well, you don't have to look outside Acura's own portfolio, as the Integra Type R has long fetched money that belies its front-wheel-drive roots. Several low-mileage examples have been bid over the six-figure mark in past years, and one's coming to auction that just might be the new benchmark. The mileage is very low, the color is right, but a big part of the story here is where this Integra hails from. It's part of the RealTime Collection Hall, a California-based museum specializing in the best-of-the-best vintage Hondas and Acuras, both road cars and racing machines. RealTime Collection Hall RealTime Racing was the brainchild of Peter Cunningham, a championship-winning pro racer in his own right. The team campaigned many cars over the years, but perhaps the best-known is the run from 1997 to 2002, when RealTime Integra Type R racers won multiple World Challenge Touring Car championships, including handing Acura four of its first manufacturer's championship wins in the series. The 2001 Integra Type R that the RealTime collection is putting up for auction is finished in Phoenix Yellow. It has just 4800 miles on the odometer. And as a meticulously maintained road car from a racing team that knows these cars inside and out, it is as good as it gets. Acura's current compact performance flag is carried by the Integra Type S, which is a fantastic car in its own right but completely different from its Type R ancestor. The original hot Integra was one of the masterworks of Honda engineering legend Shigeru Uehara, the brains behind the NSX and the S2000, and a close personal friend of F1 great Ayrton Senna. RealTime Collection Hall Under Uehara's direction, the Type R was stripped of every luxury to save weight and had a spicy 1.8-liter engine that revved to 8400 rpm and produced 195 hp. The car was stiffer and lighter than the satisfying Integra GS-R and overall felt like Acura had taken an already great driving experience and poured five espressos down its throat. A Type R delivers the kind of raw driving experience you simply don't get in today's more complex vehicles. It's not just about the pace but also the feel of the thing. As such, it falls firmly in the category of 'they don't build them like this anymore.' That kind of thing demands a premium. The collector community will be watching closely to see what kind of dollar amount this blue-chip Acura will fetch. As a museum-quality piece, it's probably too important to history to really rack up the miles with. But then again, even a single lap in a Type R is an experience to be savored.
