Carbon brakes? They were an option but I prefer my steel ones with the blue calipers...On the carbon ceramics they are coloured gold my friend.
Lunch alfresco and the race too! This is summer at its best

Got it - I forgot that the gold calipers ID's the brakes as the ceramic option. My friend in San Diego has your exact car and he has your steel brakes. I was intrigued at the ceramic brake option and did some research....there have been numerous early failures of the ceramic brakes on this car; and the cost to replace the ceramic rotors, etc is close to $10K US!!!!
