Cayenne brakes (was Le Mans)

[TM]

Carter, et al.-

The Cayenne S and Turbo brakes are the same, except the
color.

Only mass-production cars sold in the US using 8-piston
calipers are the various MBZs and the Audi RS6.

The S brakes are around 14 inches- at least 345mm rotors.

I guess the black calipers have a "slimming" effect visually.

Hi Jon, there is a 8 piston option, I think - there were two next to
each other at the PCA race Limerock, and the Turbo had NOTABLY larger
brakes and red calipers.  Must have been at least 13 inch rotors,
probably closer to 14 inch, and looked seriously like 8 piston jobbies.
Nice setup....

Later!
