Thanks for everyone's time and advice on this. I haven't sold a car via the web before.

We are buying a 2010 RS so this car needs to go in order to make that happen ;-)

All GT3 seats are leather/alcantara. Full Leather is an option that adds leather on the dash and other areas. Should be on the option list/window sticker if you have it.

I just ordered the option list from suncoast. Should be in over the next couple of days.

Yes, it does have the leather/alcantara seats, steering wheel and shifter.

I have 4 offers on the car as it stands. I will be selling the car by the end of the week to the highest offer and obviously fair offer

Really

To some people options don't make any difference and yet to others it does.

When I was shopping for my 997 TT last year, regardless of the prices, I never entertained any TT that didn't have PCCB's, Sport seats, LSD and Deviated stitching.

When one did pop up, it wasn't cheap but I am happy I bought what I wanted.

BTW, If you haven't driven a car with Ceramics, than you can't appreciate the lower un sprung weight not to mention almost negligible brake dust.

To the OP, I don't follow the GT3 prices, but I am sure to the right buyer, couple of thosands won't break the deal.

Good-Luck..Gorgeous car

A lot of potential gt3 buyers are looking for a car to take to the track. To most of these people, PCCB are more of a hassle than anything else.

I own a car with ceramics and will soon be switching them out for steel. I could care less about dust and unsprung weight, as the combined feel, ability, and cost of race pads and steel rotors can't be matched by ceramics.

BTW.. I think you have a gorgeous tt.

C2 Turbo

Agree but not every one buy them to track'em
Appreciate your kindness.

When you take them off, send them to me. I could use a set of free ceramic spares.

3500 pound Turbo and unsprung weight savings?

Mikelly

Talk about doing the tango with a hippo!



Everyone who has PCCBs loves them. Everyone who has priced replacements for them , knows why they don't want them. It's simple. Driving something that is sexy and "unsprung" is only great when you're driving it where it matters most. And quite honestly we don't see many of them on cars at the track for a reason. But hey, if it's just to "Cars and Coffee" to impress the uninitiated, then I guess it's a win!

LVDell

Yup, we've both been there, done that. I'm still laughing my **** off thinking of weight savings and Turbo in the same sentence.......

My Turbo has ceramics. Look cool, negligible brake dust, fantastic breaking. Like Dell says, weight savings on a turbo ? Doesn't count until you've trimmed off about 400-500 pounds.

Each to their own, and for their own application. My 6-3 racecar has steel, of course.

[QUOTE=Mikelly;10058871 But hey, if it's just to "Cars and Coffee" to impress the uninitiated, then I guess it's a win! [/QUOTE]

Not every one has as much free time as some people on this board have to track their cars

For those that want these cars for street driving whether it's for Cars & Coffee or impressing women or even taking cars out to the night clubs etc etc, there's nothing out there that beats the ceramics.

People that can afford ceramics they continue to track them and those that can't afford them usually go for the cheaper steel alternatives.

Why do you all buy lighter track wheels and how much weight do you think you guys save, may be 10 lbs total, if all that?

I have no idea why people feel so hostile about the PCCB's? Just seeing some one mentioning they have Ceramics brings out all the hatred towards them?

Why?

kk2

It's not hatred. It's the fact that we are on a 'discussion' board and when an individual definitively states that ceramics are a) better and/or b) add value to a car, a discussion on the topic is bound to arise.

C2 Turbo

All OP asked was, LV Dell does your car has Ceramics? Not once it was mentioned one was better than the other?

Ceramics definately were an expensive option just like X50 was in a 996 TT or the CF seats in some GT2 etc etc.

The point is, for us street wussies, the ceramics seems to suit us and for you track rats, they don't, period.

Would you or would you not pay extra for options like sport seats, deviated stitiching, CF seats etc etc?

I think we should let OP sell his car rather than making this thread into PCCB's vs Regular brakes?
