New to the forum

Just wanted to say "Hi."
I just joined the group today.
Took delivery of my first Porsche on 2/20/08.
It is a C2S CPO from Brumos Porsche with 6K miles on it.
It came with leather sport seats, floor mats, Sport Chrono, Sport shifter, TPMS. and not much more.

For reasons I'll never understand, the original owner replaced the PCCB's with brakes from the Turbo. The brakes are great, but not as good as PCCB's.

I've already had it up to Summit Point twice.
It's was way more fun that the M3 it replaced.
Mr. B

Now that's odd. The most in demand brakes replaced! Wow. Maybe he did not like the idea of the future replacement costs.

Best of luck as it sounds like a nice car.

Maybe the previous owner bought a turbo and swapped the brakes. PCCB's have almost no extra value on the used market.

Welcome to the forum
Are the Turbo ceramics the same as the C2S ?
