They're a sneaky, underhanded means of improving profitablity on what is already an expensive machine. In SA the CCM brakes on the R8 and S8 are a R 100,000.00 option! Bloody ludicrous. Surely there are certain fundamentals in car spec that can be agreed upon by the Germans? For example, BMW with its 3 series: Any car with a six cylinder engine, then Xenons are standard. Plain and simple. Any Porsche with a GT3, GT3 RS, Turbo, GT2 moniker should get CCM brakes standard. At the current price too dammit. Manufacturers need to look at more innovative ways of bringing all-round product value to the consumer than by merely loading up on the options list.
