What's the difference between the regular C3 and the "Pro"?

New inner liner, some aero improvements/cosmetics. Oh, and $150.

BTW: EU version available from German web site for $650 or so delivered in one week to US.
Biker-land.de is a great supplier that I have used, no affiliation, just a happy customer.

Per Revzilla ad:

New or Updated Features:

• Redesigned shell is more aerodynamic and provided more downforce at higher speeds with little buffeting
• Interior helmet sound levels have been reduced to 82 dB(A) at 60 mph {C3 84 dB(A)}
• Interior liner has been completely redesigned with fewer seams and a more universal, interior fit
• Improved EPS with integrated antenna for SRC-System which improves radio and Bluetooth range
• New micro-lock ratchet chin strap
• Larger reflective panels on neckroll
• Improved faceshield ratcheting
• Integrated sun visor has a new look and improved quality

I decided to not go cheap on my next helmet.
I'll get from Revzilla or Competition Accessories if no US dealer discount can be had.
Figured it was a long shot trying for Schuberth discount.

I bought 2 Scorpion EXO 900 helmets and the main bottom trim piece on both helmets cracked.
Looks like the piece "shrunk". When it did, it split and left a gap. Trim piece catches on my jacket collar.
I've got it taped.

Scorpion said I needed to ship helmets in to get trim replaced. Nah.
I'm just going to make them 3/4 helmets and use with my 2 Ruckus scoots.

This new helmet is a retirement gift to myself.
Gonna be riding a lot more after March and want comfort and quality.

Sierra BMW is discounting the regular C3' might be able to work with them on the Pro.

Are you sure that they will ship to the US?

I wonder if you have a warranty issue, will Schuberth US cover a Euro helmet.

Not likely.

Yes, they will, but you have to talk to them about shipping costs, per their website, and they will deduct the VAT of 20%.

I have done business with Biker-land.de for US orders. Their website provides for painless US shipment at reasonable cost and I never paid an import duty on helmet.

Went by Competition Accessories in Fort Mill, SC today.
They had the C3 Pro on sale, 20% off.
I tried a Large on and it didn't feel comfortable. Head shape wasn't quite right and was pretty tight around my jaw.
Looked really nice though.

I checked out a Shoei Neotec Borealis last month and will go with it.
Found it online for $600 shipped.

I bought a C3 Pro and returned it that same afternoon. It felt ok in the store, but after wearing it for 30 minutes it gave me a splitting headache.
