Mazda's breaks suck?!

ok so today i went to my local AUTO SHOW (the Pacific Auto and Light Truck Show in vancouver) and went to the mazda area... i look at the cars and the break discs looks weird!? i checked other cars and they looks really weird.... so i went up to them to see and guess what... ALL the mazda cars desplyed there has their break disc PAINTED! all in silver! LOL.... now does Mazda's breaks suck that much and rust that badddddd???? lol... well... if u guys go check out other auto shows in the future, please take a look at their break disc and see if they're painted... lol... or is it only the here that they paint them.... it's halirous... lol...

OH and i think the shinka edition is for sale here in canada too... cause i saw one that's looks purplesish(the color seen on the shinka here) and the interior leather is white... and on the magazine it just says "special edition"

WTF?....., the car stops on a dime with no fade. They have great brakes!

So what if they paint them...what a dumb thread.

seems like ur judging brakes by how it looks...? u should test drive an 8 and try the brakes... then come back and say they "suck"

You don't work on breaks, my brakes work and I'm old and rusty. So paint me. By the way I'm 1/2 Canadian.

So rusty appearance = brakes suck? I like to hear your conversation with someone else.

Them: "So RX Renesis, I'm thinking of buyng an 8 and want to know how well the car stops"
You: "On yea the brakes on the 8 really suck"

To go back on-topic, it's not uncommon to paint or otherwise scrub or clean the rotors on showcars. Anyone whose owned any car can see rust forming both on the hub of the rotor and particularly on the face of the rotor very quickly, particularly on a humid day. Everyone gets rusted rotors (admittedly the RX-8 is excessive) and no one wants press pictures of rusted rotors.

Hrm, my brake rotors are always rusty if the car gets left out in the rain for any period of time and I don't drive it. My friend's WRX's were rusty for the same reason this weekend when it was parked in my driveway. I guess that means they both suck....??

What's weird about this? I've seen people with more than 9000 posts in other forums writing ****.

In German there's a saying: 'Reden ist Silber, schweigen ist Gold' which translates as 'to speak is silver and to remain silent is gold'. (Just because someone talks a lot doesn't mean he or she has a clue.)
