ATE Cayenne S Rotors for 996 GT3 - Where are they?!?!?

Race Car
I ordered the centric power slots, they arrived yesterday and look good. Slotted but slots don't extend to the edge of the rotor.
Found them through partsgeek.com and got them for $196 Shipped for the front pair.
They are (as advertised) heavy MF'ers. 27.2 lbs per rotor. Weighed one of my OEM rotors that is not new but not worn out either and it only weighed in at 24.2. So 3 full pounds of rotating mass added at each corner, I hate knowingly adding weight to the car but I suppose for the money difference I"ll deal with it. I'm already running the heaviest tires known to man (nitto's) so what's another small weight compromise.

Brand new in the box pair of ATE Cayenne S front rotors for 996 GT3. Made in Germany. Bought 3 sets at the beginning of the season, but only used 2. They last quite a long time, especially after cryo freezing them.
Original Cost 339 plus tax.
Selling for 10% less and no tax: PRICE 300
I have 2 weeks to return for equivalent refund. If anyone wants a set this is the last of them. No US stock left.
Local pickup preferred as these are 28lbs each. I can ship but I am sure it wont be cheap.

I have no idea if I screwed this up but I just recently paid $398 for a set of front rotors from Brake performance (free shipping no tax). I did not order the Cayenne Rotors; I ordered GT3 rotors. I wonder what the difference is other than price?
Just installed them and will be on track in a week and a half so will report back then. BTW I got about 1200 miles out of my expensive PFC rotors and they're now almost shot. Not a very good deal IMHO and this is the second time it happened.

OK, the 2012 season is in the books - so how did these various inexpensive rotors work on the track? After a season the tech guys won't let me run my drilled rotors because of cracks between the holes, even though there is plenty of rotor left. Not doing that anymore. Brakeperformance dimpled and slotted Cayennes are currently $210/pr. shipped.

Everyone using the Brakeperformance units has reported excellent wear. They are heavier but crazy cheap. I am not currently tracking my GT3 (have a dedicated track car) and when I ordered my slotted/dimpled Cayenne rotors from BrakePerformance, I got them on a special for $189 shipped (free shipping special last father's day). They've worn well and I expect them to wear will when tracked. Can't believe you can get them for the GT3 fitment so cheap...
