If I were planning to have the car ~2 years, from a purely financial perspective I'd go with the cheaper car. You will lose some/most of that $11k difference over 2 years. PCCBs certainly have functional benefits, but from a purely financial perspective, in your case with these two used cars I'd get the cheaper 18. Another way to look at it, if I were a future buyer looking at your used T that is 3-4 years old and has PCCBs and has also been tracked some, I would be very cautious and be sure to have the brakes inspected and measured. If show signs of significant wear I would discount that car rather than pay any premium. So, buying the car with PCCBs would change the way I would use the car and I personally wouldn't want to track it IMHO.

As others have said, go for the cheaper 18. PCCBs are in IMHO, a negative on a used car (but great if bought new). The last thing you’ll want is to have to foot the bill to ever replace those things!
