Brembo Brake Mustang OWNERS!!!!

If your an owner of a 2011-12 Brembo Brake Mustang please help me create a "national registry" for these unique cars. Visit: Brembo50.com. There is lots of information about these cars there. It's FREE and helpful. Let me know what you think. Thanks!

I'd say it's rare, around here
Can't say for the rest of the country

It's rare here.

The dealer never orders them for stock. I haven't ever seen one in real life.

Umm..really.. That surprises me.. in the North East Jersey, PA area.. it seems rather popular..
Looking at the numbers on their website.. that shocks me..

I have one of 544 convertibles.. again... I thought the CS was a more rare option that Brembo brakes...

Me and my brother both own brembo cars and both are coupes, and I've only seen one other brembo car here in Minnesota, not to say there isn't more out here

I know of only 1 other brembo equipped car around my area, aside from my own.

Ironically, mine gets confused with the Boss more often than not. I've had several people ask me why I took the Boss stripes off my car. Have to explain it's not a Boss, just a GT.

WTF? When did they start letting you get it on the convertibles?? There was a time you could not get it.

Since when did 4605 cars become considered rare?! It's a Ford, not a Ferrari. Stop drinking your own kool aid.

Oh, I'm sorry!

I suppose my base V6 with no rear spoiler deserves its own thread and website, too.

Nobody did, darling. I was being sarcastic. Something which obviously and routinely goes over American heads; especially those from Texas.

You were insinuating that someone mentioned it. And I get Texas jokes all day so that's not anything new.

But thanks for the helpful link. I'll bookmark it so I can refer to it later

Calm down. Your sarcasm is completely misdirected.

There are all kinds of registry's, for all kinds of cars. There's the yellow mustang registry, electric green registry, spring edition registry yada yada.

It's just people trying to connect with other like minded individuals. If anybody has a chip on their shoulder in this thread, it's you.

Boys (and girls), it was just a joke!!!

Here, let me help you out by placing a couple of these in my response...

By the way, i expect one of you to have my website up and running by the end of the day:

www.v6basemodelswithoutrearspoilers.com

Now, back to work.

Good day.
