Today, it’s a gimmick. Yes, I’d love to have CCB on a street car, but In the end, I just couldn’t justify spending $8k extra. To me, it’s not about the fact that the rotors will potentially last a very long time, but that I have to spend that kind of money upfront.

Even if I have to replace the steel rotors more often and spend more in the long run, I prefer that route in the short to medium term.

If I was buying a new CS, I'm with you...no way I'd spend the extra money especially if I was going to track the car. Brake job DIYs are a simple and inexpensive task especially with FCPs lifetime free replacement warranty (iron rotors). Standard iron rotors, race pads with Ti shims, and you're good to go most likely for almost all track work.
