Love this site! I am a noobie! I was wondering if someone could sum up the differences between Carbon ceramic brakes and the steel. I understand that in all but extreme conditions the engineers prefer the steel. But do the ceramic brakes last the lifetime of the car? That could be a consideration if a brake job is >$1500 because you need new rotors. Is the feel any different? I assume that better means stops better and feels better.
