Cost of replacement discs and pads

I just caught a short video on my FB feed, about Porsche Surface Coated Brakes.

One bit surprised me.

It was an American video, so prices are in dollars, for a Cayenne, but interesting, nonetheless.

He spoke to a local Porsche Centre to get a price for new discs, pads, ancillaries and tax, but not including labour:

Cast iron = $2,343.15

PSCB = $11,095.10 :o

PCCB = $32,206.74 :shock:

Cheers,

I've just asked Swindon the question re cost - I think the PSCB are standard on the Cayman GTS...??

Standard on the Macan GTS, but not the Cayman GTS.

Another reason I might opt for the S, if buying a new Macan... :o

PSCB is standard on the GTS, £581 is to paint the calipers black.

Sorry - my bad - the pics on configurator show red callipers for a GTS and I thought PCSB were white...
