Default Lol, yeah that's it... I guess I'll play too.. they suck to B5 owners because we're not mostly about

bling... we actually research on the PERFORMANCE of a product more so than B6 owners from what I have seen. The PCCB Brake system has been a serious flaw in the Porsche GT2. How you ask? Well let's review the many complaints from GT2 owners...

A: Brake pad life is short
b: Rotors are being destroyed on the track
c: Porsche's original comment about the brake system being trake inspired/race oriented is wrong. even they have recinded that with their GT2 customers.
d: They are underperforming traditional steel rotors and composite pads.

Here's some reading material on it...

Then why do they? I'm not disagreeing, I'm just curious.

Default you speak for all B5 owners?

cuz there are a few performance oriented B6ers around here. And maybe it's just that us B6ers are smarter and know our cars aren't REALLY that fast ;oP hehe

Default At least I'm gernerating some intelligent/insightful discussion here.

Even if I am a "B6 Bling". I just can't win. Boo Hoo. I'm so bad with my mods. I'm terrible to my car and treat it like ****. I should be ashamed of myself.

Default not at all, show is same as go, whatever floats your boat. My position is that

B6 owners are much more interested in how something looks than to how something performs, at least compared to B5 owners. You posted about the brake system being lighter, that's good but other than that you had no other information on the failures of this system. The PCCB system is so bad that GT2 owners are switching to traditional iron rotors to which I have to give them credit.
