How expensive? Worse than Brembo? I'd love to have a set like this. Do you know where to purchase them from?

I found them from an online source for $1543.60 for the front set.

Unfortunately same price for the rears. which is a bit steep.

Might be a nice front upgrade and them 400E or some R129 brakes for the rear.

Ummm ... Stay away from Rotora - They are cheap and I wouldn't buy brakes made from China.

Nvm then. Looks like Brembo or the r129 brakes are the smarter buy.
