Pretty good deal on 991 S w/ PCCB

Came across this car listed on Vroom https://www.vroom.com/cars_and_trucks/2012/Porsche/911/Carrera%20S/64361

Car appears to be loaded, w PCCB (rare) and they aren't even making note of the brakes on the ad.

Make sure they really are PCCB. Looks to me like the calipers were simply painted yellow to match the car color. I'm no expert on this but the rotors look smaller than those on cars with true PCCB.

I second this. I saw this listing when I was searching and definitely worth confirming.

PCCB on the non turbo aren't as big as you're used to seeing, you can clearly tell by the texture of the rotor and the rotor hat bolts.

Those are for sure Carbon Rotors. Wonder if the dealer even knows the upcharge on those. Seems like they would have listed that option in the add if so.

You're right. They are PCCB. I assumed they had to be larger rotors like on the turbo. Plus the car also has PDCC too. Very nice.
