The dust buildup is incredible!! And this after only 6 days of ownership!!
Awesome car, BTW.....I'm very lucky to have one....I plan to follow the advice of another thread, and put on a wax/dust repel coating of some kind...Canadian Tire carries some kind of rim coating spray...As a temporary solution, hopefully this will help the dust not stick so much...
Besides changing the pads/brakes, as I read in a thread, what do you guys plan to do, wash it out every week? If not, that stuff will build up terrible!!

Yeah, the brake dust is really bad. I'll be switching to ceramics at the first pad change. (Hmmm. That makes it sound like I'm a woman!!)
In the meantime, I'm just purchased a product called wheelwax. I haven't received it yet, but its supposed to be good at repelling the brake dust. You can reach them at www.wheelwax.com.
Dante!
