"I assume no chance of being covered under warranty. This kind of bugs me. Basically BMW brakes are garbage. I have friends who track their porsche 40 days a year without having to 'rebuild' their calipers routinely."
I rebuilt calipers regularly on my E28 after HPDE's. There's nothing wrong with the brake setup. It has everything to do with the pads you use. Back in the 80's metalmasters were the hot pad but on a fast track they would emit sparks braking for a slow corner. That would toast the dust boot. Later I went to carbon fibre based pad which lasted years and I never had to replace boots even though my speeds were much faster.
I'm not looking for an argument but I was under the impression that Porsche brakes, while very good, were a high maintenance item. In any event, you've got the right car.
