As long as you are fine with having wheel and brake envy. Go right ahead and order it with the lower cost parts

I personally wouldn't spec a Porsche with PCCB--yeah, yeah on a street car with PCCB you won't have the brake dust to worry about. But in addition to the cost to get them originally and cost to replace, PCCB not adding anything discernible for most drivers and no way will one tell any difference on the street, there's the fact that I do my own brake service and brake fluid flushes. I'd be really worried about dropping a wheel on those rotors and breaking them. It hasn't come up for me, but if a preowned Porsche had PCCB's, I may not buy that car, period. If I did buy it, I wouldn't pay more for the PCCB equipped car than one with iron rotors. In the end, get what you want.

I would say more blasphemy than illegal, which is why I specced them on mine.

Going with deviated stitch on mine too. Could end up being a 1of1 because of the sofas. It’ll be a “GT” spec of an insane car. Should be fun 😈
