Really Marc?!?!!? That is ridiculous, when I had the G35 with Brembos it had 4 pistons up front. It is inexcusable for a performance car to have roughly the same brakes available on a Camry. :nono:

I know it does, but will it still stop on a dime the tenth time? 20th? 100th? All brakes fade, but there are ways of making them far less susceptible to it. Proper ventilation and multiple pistons are just a couple.

Just not more than one dime, though!

As I said, it's inexplicable on an M - the brakes just being "good" really isn't enough for these cars.

Yea, I don't track my car so I don't really notice.....but it is sorta a let down to see brakes on the M that really aren't that much bigger/better than on the 545i.

No hah found that on M3Post.com...I don't track my car at the local track because, 1) My Mom automatically connects "Track" with "speed" with "danger" with "crash" with "death".....so.....yea :P and 2) the amount of rice that shows up at this track is WAY too much :lol:
