Do you guys know MB is going to produce only 50 of these rockets?

MB claimed it will stop on a dime with the new ceramic brake system. I wonder if we can retrofit these brakes to my 99 E430 Sport.

Nut,

MB is planned to produce 55 of CL55 AMG F1s. All equipped with ceremic disc brake. Though I have no doubt the disc would fit on W210 in some way, the cost alone would not worth it. At least not yet....

The new Porsche 911 Turbo GT2 will be fitted w/ ceramic brakes too...and they will make it optional equipment for the "standard" 911 Turbo. If so, I'm sure movit will probably offer it up for sale sometime in the future.

Are you aware that the CL55 AMG F1 is also 70k more expensive than the normal CL55? It seemed to me that the only difference was the FRONT brakes which were Ceramic.

I don't understand the hype of the CL55 and S55. I'd take the S600 and CL600 in a split second over the 55 models. Nothing beats a V12. It is a completely different feeling.
