My Ride: E60 520i
some models of porsche is made by movit..... not sure which model is made by movit and which is by brembo... but its too costly and not worth the rime doing it...
btw... G power has brakes made by movit with 405mm rotors...
AP racing just released for E60 too... and they're better than brembo
