Default Question for those considering ordering a 2011 Coupe or Convertible

OK, time for the next question to help me with 2011 orders!

Starting this year, you can order the J55 Brake Option on a standard coupe or convertible. Essentially, this is the brake package from the Z51 or the F55.

While it’s not a suspension package it is a bit of a performance upgrade. My question is…would you order it?

Dave

If I would be ordering a standard coupe, Yes, I would opt for the J55.

Here you go.

Coupe, 1LT, J55, NPP, RQ1, in 70U, 41U, 17U, and 10U. The new wheels look OK in RQ1, the wheel was kind of made for that paint treatment, otherwise, I think the new style wheels kind of suck. How much are the RQ1 wheels?

The RQ1 wheels are $895...not too bad!

For the extra $1195 I would get the F55.

If I was looking I would want J55 for the look of the cross drilled rotors alone....but like other said I would spend the extra $$$ on f55 and get the whole package....

$48,950 + $500 + $1,195 + $895 = $51,540, or you could knock a grand off by at least ordering the NPP, and QX1 wheels???
