CCB cost so much to replace so I'm not sure those who kept saying you only select it if you track the car. In fact, unless you plan to spend a lot on replacing brakes, you will better off with steel brakes for track.

Didn't someone in another thread linked what Porsche GT division head said about ceramics? Ceramic's wear rate is about the same as steel under track use, so he suggest do not pick that option if you plan to track your car. If you insist on PCCB, Porsche offer a steel rotor and brake pad set up option for track days.

On top of that, I have been to M school several times and the instructors don't feel CCBs are better on track, the brake points is not later compare to steel, they don't think it's worth the premium.

But I have them on my F10 M5 though, mainly for looks, and luckily mine doesn't squeal.
