what are sport brakes?
EDIT:: Now embarassed... Dur. I should read things more carefully!

Story: when i went to buy my car i knew more about it than the saleman (i knew some things-still learning my husband would ask a question, i would wait a beat to see if salesguy knew then i answered, it got to the point he just looked at me when tony asked a question-sad but kind of humorous

Sport brakes are offered in the sport package upgrade. 14" front rotors with 4 piston calipers and the rears are 13.8" rotors with 2 piston calipers.

Here are a couple of pictures of my sport brakes. I was waxing the calipers with a high temp wax so the brake dust washes right off

They have a fancy coating as well,
