This crap of sliding calipers in the rear is simply cheap and out of character in these cars. Especially in carbon brakes. That's beyond absurd.

Thanks.
I agree, fixed piston should be the standard but keep in mind the new $200k+ Bentley GT speed has the same sliding rear setup.

It's no excuse, just something to think about.
Completely agree. Sliding calipers are pathetic and don't belong on any M car. My new M6 with a $130k sticker has single piston sliding calipers? Are you kidding me BMW??
