Petrolheads love a track special. Whether it be RS for Porsche, CSL for BMW, or Black Series for Mercedes-Benz, these machines take an already potent driver’s car and throw passenger comfort and any sense of modesty out the window in pursuit of all-out track performance. However, in the realm of track-focused driver’s cars, there are two special letters that are sit above the rest, guaranteed to get the pulse racing of any car lover in the world: XX.
