2011 Mustang with Brembo Brake package

[Sgt Beavis]

Ford's advertising states that the rear calipers on the Brembo package has dual piston calipers. Edmund's realized that it only has single piston calipers.

Ya think there are gonna be some ticked off 2011 Mustang owners?

I would be, that is a significant difference. I'm not a brake guru, but I would pay for upgraded brakes on a car over other performance upgrades. Of course, I'd probably investigate a little more. How do you mess that one up?

Who needs brakes?!?!

Brakes are for pussies.

Also from my understanding the 402A (California Special) package is supposed to include the Brembo package, yet the one I looked at Saturday had the same brakes as the base GT sitting next to it. You can't add the Brembos to a C/S after all.

Now the question is, are they even Brembo calipers?

Only on the front.

[Sgt Beavis]

That's a good question. Does Brembo even offer a single piston caliper?

Btw the article did confirm that the front brakes are four piston calipers.

[fordracing19]

It says the front are Brembo not the back.

You can not get the Brembos on the CS edition. Trust me, I have researched this intensively.

Did anyone realize that the 2000 Cobra R brakes were the Brembo fronts and regular Cobra/Bullitt brakes?

True! The rotors won't fit the wheels.
