Maybe its your driving technique. I am not in any way shape or form slamming your or trying to put you down, just helping you out because in the future if you do purchase a 5.0 and get the brembo brake kit you will still be at the same point you are with this car. Also for a FYI on those, the rotors are softer material than the 370's. Think about it before you jump ship.

Yes, actually they are, for 12/12, and mine first began showing problems at 10K miles of street driving. No, I won't be at the same point. I've owned "many" cars (for a 27yo), and I have literally NEVER had these issues. In fact, I was in a Kia Optima for about a month earlier this year, and it didn't develop any issues with its brakes. My car takes about 2-3 weeks to start shuddering pretty bad sometimes after service (for same issue).
I'm glad you lucked into a good 370Z, but if my Z06, WS.6, G20, 1988 GT, 1993 Crown Vic, 1995 Trans Am, and the Kia rental car can all handle my driving, then **** this pussy **** if it can't.
