Starting from the 2008 model year onwards, all Ferrari cars will come standard with Brembo carbon ceramic brake discs, something that previously only an expensive option on its cars. Despite that, as it is over 85% of Ferrari orders have the brakes specified, giving Ferrari reason to make them standard.
From Ferrari’s press release: “Brakes featuring CCM discs offer much more responsive braking as well as consistently excellent performance in intensive use. One of the most obvious advantages to adopting them is their exceptional fade resistance – fade in fact compromises the drivers feeling of control when it comes to the pressure required on the brake pedal and responsiveness. The CCM discs have a longer life under normal conditions, a fact that has clear financial advantages. Furthermore, even with continual track use, CCM brakes offer greater resistance to wear for better durability on track. The CCM braking system also cuts around 15 kg off the cars total weight which not only improves overall performance but also reduces unsprung mass and thus improves vehicle dynamics and ride comfort.”
No mention whether prices would remain standard or not though…

erichigc…come on la.without tax also you cannot afford this. i’ll sure u. u see langkawi la…no tax, how many people can buy this???
no difference in pricing. Maybe cost less than 10k, but its nothing to those who buy it in the first place.
CCM discs were a relatively new technology on road cars when they were first launched. its only natural that ferrari would only offer it as an option. early application CCM discs had its fair share of problems.
they’ve only adopted it as standard since so many customers have opted for it. if less than 50% of their customers opted for it, i’m sure ferrari wouldnt have made it standard anyway.
buy half the price 10 years later? the maintainance will kill, 10 year old merc n bimmer already expensive to maintain, let alone this one… wait 20 years, the car become classic and expensive again already..
Nah, people wont mind to add in an extra unit of carbon ceramic brakes in its spare tire.
