If your car also has PCCB , I think I know who you bought it from as there is only one with glass sunroof , PCCB and 7MT and if so
you and your unrelated namesake in New Mexico would be the owners of the only two Registry-known CC'c with PCCB !

look familiar ? :







additional CC swag ( $6k ) you may be interested in :

Any club blue owners in the Washington, DC area? I'd love to compare it to my incoming Nogaro Blue C2S

While I don't have a CC, i do have GTS (manual) and i couldn't agree more. Its such a pleasure to drive especially on track and its versatile enough to drive daily with my kids. Perfect blend of sportiness and practicality. I can honestly say its the perfect Porsche for me and my lifestyle.

yup , an automatic mechanical movement chronograph ... as posted above ...and designed with input from one of our fellow owners ..offered by Porsche Design to CC owners only with first batch in production

there's so much one-off Club Coupe only swag from Porsche Exclusive and PCNA for a completed run of just 60 cars ..too much to list !

btw, since they only ever in hx made up just " one can " of PTS Club Blau colored paint for spraying all 60 , orig owners were each given a bottle from that " can " for touch up and also we were given the exact Standox base color formula mix for body shop use , if needed , in future ..but forbidden to post it publicly for obv reasons !

as an interesting aside , the reason this color is named " club blau " is because it is not only to commemorate the 60th anniv of the PCA last year , but also because this blue shade will soon replace the current darker blue shade on the PCA's official logo !

I'm confused. I now own a Club Coupe. From whom do I buy the watch?

Thanks.

I just figured it out.

Would you do Michelin Pilot Sport PS2, Pirelli PZero Corsa System, P Zero Trofeo R?

I upgraded to the MPSC2's and they are excellent on track. Lets see how the wear compared to stock P Zero's. To be honest if i wasn't going to the track, i would probably stick with a more street oriented tire. I found the grip and handling excellent on the street with the stock tires.

I have a cc and didn't get touch-up paint. Does it have to be ordered?
