Brake pads OEM Porsche or OEM BMW

I got mine in November 2024 brand new. M Sport Pro in Carbon Black.

For starters, it is a pretty reliable car. I have done 13,000 kms in one year, plenty of road trips along with some being on steep mountains.

So far, it has given me 0 major issues.

I’ve got a 2019 with 110k km, have only had to change the brake pads outside of normal maintenance and that’s cause I drive it hard. Most reliable vehicle I’ve owned

I live in Socal and bought mine from a dealer out of state. Get on bimmerpost and search, there are a few like Jeff Steele from Passport BMW or a finance manager at Camarillo. If you are hard on the brakes like I am looking at Ultimate care+ is worth it. I’ve used its twice already to replace pads and rotors

The mid-engine handling is amazing out of the box and only needs brake pads and fluid to be happy at the track all day.

I bought a Boxster for 8k this year and have put 2.7k into fixing it up. Biggest expense was new brakes and rotors.

Rotors and brake pads set you back about 3k every 3 years. Very easy to replace on your own as well.

2001 740i never had any issues with the throttle response but the brakes could be better. Too spongy and not as responsive as my 99 540i was.

Did brake rotors and pads myself parts about 400-500$. Brakes never wore out either they just warped.

The steering was the worst of all the cars I tried. Engine was fabulous but transmission not very responsive. Handling and suspension usability range were solid but the killer for this car was the really soft, weak brakes.

Macan GTS’ are going through hell right now with PSCB brakes. Plenty of tickets just saying to replace the pads and rotors and customer to monitor lmao.
