Carbon Brakes For 2018 F80?

rskkm3 · 02-15-2018, 10:12 AM

Can You Still Order A 2018 M3 F80 With The Carbon Brakes?

I Don't See The Option On Bmw Usa Build Site..

cwhands · 02-15-2018, 10:38 AM

No notes/bulletins about it. Should be able to spec even though bmw website doesn't list.

2SNAILS · 02-15-2018, 10:38 AM

Yes you can! I ordered mine on MY18!

rskkm3 · 02-15-2018, 11:29 AM

I Better Try Back At Dealership
They Said It Was Discontinued
Thanks

ddas · 02-15-2018, 04:16 PM

I noticed it isn't on the build application on the website. Glad I ordered it for mine!

rskkm3 · 02-15-2018, 04:37 PM

Could Someone Verify If It Is Still Avaliable? Dealer Says Not Avaliable For The Rest Of The Run Of F80s.

Maybe Someone From Another Dealership Can Chime In.

Looks like its gone for the F82 on the website as well.

Also noticed yesterday that the M6 Gran Coupe, you are no longer able to build it with manual and Competition package together. You have to have one or the other. I really hope it is a mistake on the website, otherwise will be impossible to find a used comp, manual M6 gran coupe in the future (its already almost impossible, but if they stopped making them, that really sucks).

Also will be impossible to find an m4 or m3 with carbon ceramics in the future.

You can still add the ceramics brand new from dealer, just not as a window sticker line item. Will have to be bought separate

THAT would be expensive.

Works out being roughly the same cost.

It's expensive no matter what!

Dosen't make any sense that CCB is not for either F80 or F82 with upcoming production of the CS variants. Highly doubt CCB option take was so high that parts are limited to the CS models. As I mentioned before BMW M Driving Experience Germany doesn't option the F80/F82 for their track vehicles with CCB as the driving experience is a division of BMW M GmbH.

Arick · 02-16-2018, 10:39 AM

Just heard about this from my dealer yesterday (2/15)...........and this is the reason my car has not been in production since ordering it September-2017. Unbelievable.

My dealer said that BMW expects to put M4 orders with CCB's back into production middle of the year (June/July)......i'm not holding much hope in that given what has already transpired.

Hard pass if that is the case.

Same here. With CCB I’ve be on hold until June. At that point in time, we will get the new OPF and the Steel Driveshaft...

This makes sense as the SOP for the M3 CS is 7/18.

Might as well then order a CS which will have the CFDS.

wow, i ordered same time as you and got my car 11/30. I regret not getting CCBs, but I guess now I don't. Holy shit...

RowanBuds · 02-21-2018, 06:38 PM

Anyone have legit information to update on this issue?

It's one thing if it's not in the configurator due to delays and delaying customer spec cars for 2-3 months; it's a completely different thing if it's not able to be selected through the ordering system.

Jbmw98 · 08-02-2018, 02:28 PM

Hello,

I'm planning on getting a 2018 M3 comp pack soon and on the configurator it doesnt let you option CCB?
If anyone has input on this it I'd appreciate it, thanks!

Also I am wondering if I should get them as this car will be a daily driver for 2 years in Chicago IL.

avantix · 08-02-2018, 02:34 PM

In my opinion it makes absolutely no sense to get ceramic brakes on a daily, the steel brakes are amazing and much much cheaper to replace however I don't think you will wear out the pads in 2 years.

325iExecutive · 08-02-2018, 02:37 PM

If just DD than you would be fine. Even if you get some track time the steel brakes will do just fine. The only real change needed will be racing pads.

The initial bite for CCBs during first application in the cold can be scary but that just requires modulation to the brakes (kind of getting them ready) and a little getting use to

Overall - not a big deal. If you still want them for the look consider BBK
