Thi is the 420-hp, V8-powered Camaro SS that Motor Trend magazine calls “the most anticipated American musclecar in decades” that is equipped with Brembo four-piston, two-piece aluminum calipers and 14.0-in. (355mm) and 14.4-in. (365mm) rotors front and rear respectively.  The two-piece aluminum front calipers are designed to weigh 32% less than the ones on the V6 and yet provide increased stiffness to reduce fluid displacement and caliper deformation. The overall effect enhances vehicle efficiency and dynamics.

In addition to being the innovator of the aluminum caliper, the patented Brembo pillar-vented rotor design improves cooling and crack resistance of the braking surface, while a geomet coating prevents rust for an improved aesthetic appearance.  With the calipers sporting a black-anodized ‘musclecar’ finish instead of paint, Brembo further employs “green technology” in manufacturing by reducing the number of processes.
