This conversation is helpful, but let’s be practical. Most people buying luxury cars probably aren’t as focused on regular gas compatibility. Still, for those of us watching our budgets, it’s definitely worth knowing which models offer this option.
I remember reading about this years ago and being shocked. The fact that most people don’t know about it is a testament to how much marketing matters in the car world. The Veyron became a cultural icon, but the Sledgehammer did the actual work first.
Are the brakes original? If so, definitely plan for replacement soon. The rotors and pads on these cars don’t last forever and Porsche brake parts aren’t cheap.
