Primarily replacement cost with track use, in addition to up-front cost. I don't feel my own track ability will be appreciably better with the PCCBs to justify the cost.

Snabbgt3 - thx! I haver never driven a gt3 on standard breaks - do u have the comparison? I feel it compared pccb on turbo s vs 991 s with standard beeaks - fading is impressive! Just dont know if necessary on gr3rs - but it seems to have the same standard break like turbo right? Mmh thats hard question! Me personally would take it - reselling aspects: i know quiet a lot people disliking pccb cause of costs...

I'm getting PCCBs, I think they look better and don't plan on tracking my RS much. If that plan changes, I'm ok with the replacement cost.

PCCBs are NOT worth the extra cost in my opinion for the track. The only way PCCB are better are that they have a little better initial bite but stopping distance is the same. They have no advantage with respect to fade. In fact, with fresh fluid I prefer the pedal feel of the steels.
Even with hard track use, I only had to replace my steel rotors once a year (and that's 35-40 days a year).
The best part of PCCB is no brake dust. I love that on my daily driver.
