Delays due to PCCB
#121
You need your SA to call PCNA to move down your build to July and beyond ASAP. My build date was moved from late May to July to have PCCB. It was supposed to lock Feb 14 for PTS slot and supposedly some build after Feb 3 to June may not get PCCB, and I was that unlucky one. Good luck!

Yes can order black calipers if don't like red ones
had both steel and pccbs,
Ceramics are equal breaking when they are in the right temperature
Otherwise in the cold or rainy weather better the steel, the Touring is, should be, an all round so this time i have chosen the steel brakes
on track no way to use the ceramics on the long time, are better the AP brakes and store the pccbs in the garage, getting ironically the dust

My build was close to lock & my PCCB were removed. Porsche apparently removed them to keep the allocation going. They do not have the parts to make them beyond what cars have already been allocated. What should I do? I can’t imagine buying a GT3 touring without ceramics.
If I lost the PCCB’s Id definitely still take the car. My 991.2 GT3 had steels without any issues, these new brakes are even bigger and I can’t imagine not being more then adequate, especially on the road. If you want more braking there’s always aftermarket options.
Still lame situation when paying that kind of money for the car and not getting what you want.
I will say almost all the Porsches I’ve ordered have been denied options from stitching colors, weissach package, LTS and on this particular car PTS….. I’m sure you’ll still love the car, after you get it you’ll just enjoy the masterpiece of engineering 👍

Thats really unfortunate to hear. My touring locked today actually with PCCB(currently), yet I’ve been concerned they may get bumped too.

@Bubba Wibs my car locked 2/11 as well (was supposed to be 2/14) - when is your production showing? Mine is 7/01/22 currently with PCCBs - I've had an order accepted since 07/2021.
@JohnC4S I think the model years norms are being stretched these days.

My GT3 with wing is scheduled for production and locks in 9 days and is ordered with PCCB’s in black calipers.
i was originally on the fence between PCCB and Irons. Not going to loose any sleep over which brakes they install as long as I get the car.

A healthy approach for sure.

My PTS order locked yesterday. No word about PCCBs being deleted, but TYD shows them on the build.
