$17,000 for brakes? are you sure you don’t have 1 too many 0’s there? Having a hard time believing you have to pay ~14% of the price of the car to do a brake job… Even the ZR1 that shares the same Carbon Ceramic rotors as the Enzo is ~6k

here is part number and dealer price— im obviously going to service shit myself.truth be told ill probably take this stuff off and revert back to traditional brake. for cost of brake upgrade i can get into a 750hp turbo setup–which is my end plan.

Damn.

The fact that a 2009 911 with the Ceramic Brake Option that needs serviced already is silly.

Is it a street car ?

25

it doesnt need serviced yet. simply stating that’s what it will cost when it does come time. yes it is a street car. with that said, i dont see it needing serviced for a while knowing how ccb brakes are wear wise. truth be told, we may never need to buy a set of rotors.

26

dont forget the luxury tax :wink:

Many high-end automakers offer carbon-ceramic brakes designed to better dissipate heat and prolong braking performance during extreme driving, such as on a racetrack. Ferrari’s are the priciest, at $18,500 for the 599 GTB Fiorano (the seventh ranked option) and $16,808 for the F430 (ninth on the list). Bentley’s previously mentioned carbon-ceramic brake system for the Continental GT is $308 less than the F430’s.

Glad you still think of me Mac!!!

care to explain? im not following what you are getting at? i think you are trying to get a dig at me for stating cost of a brake job. Yet if you had any reading comprehension you would see the prices were listed after i was asked if i had an extra zero… I know when you first joined here i mentioned you looked like a retard in a picture and you got all salty–i hope you are not trying to prove me right w/ my assumption.

you should have… because LOL @ your engine costing 10k less than porsche brakes hahaha
