As far as an upgrade, you have brembo rear or the rear 4 pots from the panamara can be made to fit the rotor. A company out of Russia does it. Sells on eBay for $1600. Includes calipers, paint, adapters, and as brake lines.
Hell my dads 2014 F type R doesn't come with any type of fixed calipers! (Or a rear view camera or heated seats) lol

My neighbor have a new SVR. Look nice and exhaust note sounds good. How is the reliability of the F type? |
My 2016 FtypeR has 6750 mi. Reliability has been ok...
1. Cooling fan failed at 4000 mi and car overheated. Required stopping at side of highway and a flatbed ride to dealership.
2. Eats batteries. Replaced twice already.
All of above covered by 5 yr warranty...
