Pretty interesting #'s. The thing I am confused about is I thought the PCCB brakes came standard on the Turbo S. The pictures are showing red calipers on the Panamera Turbo S. Am I missing something?

PCCB not standard on Panamera Turbo S, only 997.2 turbo S

 

Ok...that explains it...although that is a little crazy that Panamera Turbo S is $26.5K more than the standard Turbo and you don't get the PCCBs. The 997 Turbo S is "only" $23K more than the standard 911 turbo...and it comes with the PCCBs AND PDK.

I didnt believe this when I first herad it too. The angain you have to pay for the rear windshield wiper too=)- But what is really nice, I believe the PCCB brakes weigh about half of the standard brakes and a car equipped with those would be even faster.

 

i want PTTS!!
