Also your post is very presumptive that the new car WILL have MASSIVE brake problems. ASS U ME...
I never stated nor argued that BMWs have better brakes than P-cars, nor did I say they would outperform at a track, period. P ceramic systems are quite phenomenal on all fonts, performance hot and cold, fade, wear and even cosmetic isues such as looks and brake dust. I only pointed out that thus far some stopping distances are superior for the M3 and for a much heavier car this is significant.
BTW which part of this did you miss
Cheers.

Swamp, I was only responding to Ward's delightful comments with some over zealous statements to try and make a point with him.
