FWIW, ask SteveJ to compare the brakes on his F40 with a 458.  And, that has only been 15 years of improvement...


I still remember Steve's first driving report on his new (to him) F40.   As I recall he was stunned at  how poor they felt compared to the others in his fleet - until they warmed up.

Is this warming up thing a power/non power brake thing? Are other unassisted brake cars like this as well?

I get the feeling the F50s brakes are pretty good.

FG

ps - That's 25 years between the F40 and 458, but the 360s and 430s brakes surely did the job in the 15 year time frame.
