2014 E63 AMG S Model brake rotors
Hey gang, I realize this is largely the E55 room, but MrAMG sent me this way since it's the most viewed, busiest section...
So I've come to the conclusion that I need a set of brake rotors for my 14 E63 S Model, and to my horror, I see MB wants something like $1500 A PIECE for the front rotors, I've seen them as low as $700, but still, it's a cast iron disk, not a carbon ceramic rotor... Is there seriously no other application for this part that they can justify that much for it's cost when the rears are less than $100?
At that price, Carbon Ceramic actually almost makes sense, heavy on the almost...
Any supplier help or wisdom is appreciated!

You still posted in the wrong section. This is the regular W211 E-Class section. Try again here: https://mbworld.org/forums/w212-amg-146/ or here: https://mbworld.org/forums/e-class-w212-109/
AMG front brakes are expensive. That's all there is too it and you probably won't find any "cheap" replacements.

It can get confusing on here if you aren't familiar with the model designations and feeling a bit flustered over things. No worries, it happens to a ton of people.
