CCB brakes have uneven qualities:
I had a 458 Italia in 2014 in 3 track days they were dead !!!! 13 k €!
Fortunately, on the Speciale and Pista we can do 20 to 30 track days !
BMW CCBs are like those of the 458 Italia! they wear out very quickly 13k € to replace them!
They are not made for the track, as the people from the Motorsport department have confirmed to me, so it's a pleasure purchase that reduces unsprung masses and avoids pad dust.
Only road use !
That’s all


Another very similar anecdote: my Ferrari dealer absolutely wanted me to take the option of carbon rims (manufactured by Carbon revolution in Australia) they reduce the weight of forged rims by 20% but .... they are very fragile! the varnish comes off in intensive use and is irreparable in case of impact!
30 k€ to replace them !

Interesting Isn’t it ?
