but im sure the W12 has the same size brakes ? apart from the ceramic and different calipers ?

could you not buy the ceramic option and when the discs go just replace them with the steel ones of the W12 and then you have the benifit of haveing the 6 pot callipers but get rid of the expencive ceramic ?

just a thought if they are both 380mm

Does the W12 not have the 363mm brakes? Thought the 380 were S8 only?

Depends if you get the 4x life they claim to deliver and can swallow the 4x up front cost of new discs and pads there's comparative prices on ceramic vs non in another thread I think
