All kidding aside, have you owned an M5 with CCB's?
It's honestly a very petty reason. I hate the color, and for the price, you should be able to not only pick a color but have each caliper custom painted with an image of your dog. If price were no object, I'd (probably) get them and get them painted/coated, but it's just a lot. Plus, I do plan on owning the vehicle a long time and don't like that sword hanging over me. I didn't mind the dust on my 2019 and actually never had squeal. For Grey Black (the color of the new one), the brake dust will match the paint even better. They just aren't something I could mentally reconcile the cost. But people love them so much, I felt steel was under-represented and thus founded the first ever "CCB Haters Club of North America." We're small, with only one member, but we believe in our mission.
