Why would you need that kind of stopping power on a 250?

12-piston Endless looks great but I'm afraid to ask for the price.

^^ thats obviously a race (GT) car because it has no lug nuts, only 1 huge lug in the center.

that has a purpose though, but the 12 piston on a 250 is pretty much pointless.
