Adding ceramic brakes

Anyone added ceramic brakes? Priced for a 2021 wagon and it was $23k for parts alone. Wondering if it's much less for a 2015 model year.

Na I'm okay. Sounds to expensive for daily driving. 95% of e63 owners are completely fine with the oem rotors/pads for what the vehicle is actually used for

My dealer quoted me CAD $32,000 for new front backing plates, all four rotors and pads for a 2016.

But it’s ok they offered 15% off so only CAD $27,200.

Keep in mind the Racing Brake kit is only 390mm and not 402mm. Another difference it is continuous fiber and not chopped fiber.

There’s a full used takeoff at 5,000 miles from a GTS for sale right now in the UK for $12,000 pounds whatever that converts to USD.

Ebay has used ones once in a while for $8-10k

Keep in mind you don't want to use the current single piston rear calipers, you will need the older 2016 type rear calipers.
