When you do a cost vs. longevity experiment with the MX72's you will find that they are cheaper than the Carbotechs. A personal friend got at least 50k out of his set, with daily driving in all conditions, Gridlife Road Atlanta, and Znationals at Road Atlanta out of them. As well as many mountain runs.

That would be my car. I'm pulling my MX72s with a fair bit of life left after ~60k miles of tail of the dragon, highway commutes, stop and go in a large city, Grdilife full weekend, Znationals track day, etc. I'm also on the same Z1 two piece front rotors and rear EBC USR rotors with no warping or abnormal wear patterns.

Meanwhile, Halfkiddo has been through what two sets of carbotechs and is now on endless pads over the same period of time with zero track time. He's also been through a few sets of rotors as well.
