Sweet car man. No matter what anyone says, the brembo package is a great bang for your buck option. The brakes alone separately cost as much as the package. Then you get the suspension stuff, the cool wheels and tires and the better sport mode tunning. I wish they offered it on my GT/CS. Since they didnt, I decided to make my own.

As an fyi, HomeDepot sells little plastic plugs in white that perfectly match our color. You will have to drill out the plate holes a little wider, but they look great and snap right in covering those horrible holes. I did it. And they cost like .74 cents a piece.

yep, if you dont already know what the Brembo Brake Package includes

Brembo50.com - Home basically its a registry for BBP cars with tons of info on the specific details on whats different on them.

That's cool. I didn't know about that site, and I hadn't seen that take report before either. Looking at that, I don't think there are many cars floating around that are exactly like mine...neat.

Welcome to the site, and to the wonderful world of owning a 5.0 with the Brembo package. ;)

By the way... your balloon is flat. :poke:

All 2012 GT's come with the Sport Tuning steering and Traction control options....just thought I would spread the word.

OP: Great looking ride!

The 12's might come with "Sport steering" but the BBP Cars still have unique programming compared to the non-BBP Cars.

The (55D) Brembo Brake Package includes the following:

  • Front: 14" Brembo® Vented Rotors with Brembo® 4-Piston Calipers
  • 19 x 9.0-inch dark-stainless premium painted aluminum wheels
  • 255/40R19 Pirelli PZero Summer-Only (Coupe) or P255/40ZR19 Goodyear F1 Supercar (Convertible)
  • Different Springs (131lbs Front / 167lbs Rear)
  • Different Struts/ Shocks (tuned for spring rates)
  • GT-500 Rear Lower Control Arms ( Higher Durometer Rubber)
    [*] Unique Electronic Stability Control® (ESC) Tuning
    [*] Unique Sport Steering Control Setting (EPAS)
  • Tire Mobility Kit Replaces Spare Tire

Congrats, and welcome! Lots of Brembo cars here. The best thing about the 55D option is all the parts that are NOT advertised! It's a great value.

And the GT500 brakes are only different in coating COLOR.
