how can you find out if a car was used at the porsche preformance center

True, but there is a difference between low miles and letting them “sit”. A low mileage car is fine so long as the engine is driven long enough to bring the oil up to full operating temperature at least once a week. Theoretically, that would cover a car averaging about 1000-1500 miles a year. Buy the owner, not the car. A low mileage 911 owned by an enthusiast with documented maintenance is the sweet spot that commands the premium.

somethings matter more than others.
example practicing launches is a big shock to the drivetrain .
the PDK has clutches that are designed to slip on a launch which does cause ware also to the axle cv joints and differential.
All take a much heavier load, which will result overtime in increased ware and a weaker part.
Think of it like a paperclip that you keep bending back-and-forth eventually you reach the fatigue point and it breaks .
these cars are a long way from indestructible and are not immune from excessive abuse.
