I think you are pulling my leg! What combination are you speaking about? Can you post a pic?

 

colour cant be changed ?
sure i'll upload some pix on monday

 

to change the color of your brake calipers, you have to remove them and have them painted (custom). But why would anyone paint the yellow ceramics - that is their trademark to be yellow. Why don't you start a new post thread and ask if anyone else has red ceramics. I have never heard of that.

 

I have read a few posts on here where the yellow has been painted both red and black. I guess yellow doesnt go with every color and owners have had them painted.

Hmmm. For a nearly $9,000 option, I like everyone to know they are ceramic! I think the yellow goes with all colors! Just my opinion.

 

I totally agree,, but someone on here recently redid a TT and painted the ceramic brakes red, its easy enough to have done.

guess red and red looked better to him than red/yellow.

i thought long and hard abt getting the yellow brakes and decided since I will never track my car I have no need for them. I just drive in Fl on the highways and back roads and really see no need for the ceramics.

the turbo brakes are great!!

 

I don't recall ever seeing a 997TT without it.

 

^^^Looks like there is only one!

PS: Yes, the turbo brakes are great too! In my opinion, everything about the turbo is great and you can't go wrong no matter what color and what options.

 

I am really impressed you drive a 6 speed.

I beg my wife to drive the turbo and she refuses. She has skills on a manual but a 5 speed and for some reason the idea of a SIX SPEED just intimidates her.

I told her its the same as a 5 speed. BUT,,,,,, there is something abt over 5 gears that causes a mental block.

Hopefully in time I can get her comfortable..

Thanks! I have done quite abit of tracking and last month went to the Porsche Sport Driving school in Alabama and had a blast there too! Today I left a Ferrari in my dust on the highway (he had a beautiful car but no driving skills)!

 

It is BRAKES, not BREAKS people. Sorry, that drives me crazy. I'll be quiet now.

 

Yes, I noticed that too! funny.

 

I was told sport chrono was a must also, I thought about the brake color also but kept the steel. The calipers had to be taken off and sent to be painted, but I dont know about outside the U.S.
