Finally the number one complaint about BMW from hardcore enthusiasts (after weight that is) is being addressed. Brembo has announced that it will supply BMW with both disks and complete braking systems.
Brembo has recently also acquired major manufacturing facilites in the US and Mexico when it bought Hayes Lemmerz's brake division.If we can presume the 6 piston front caliper on the 135 is in fact a Brembo piece, why the e92 M3 will retain the traditional BMW single piston is a bit of a mystery. However future models will be equipped with calipers capable of sustainable stopping power.

UPDATE: Ben, one of our readers kindly linked a photo (via
1addicts.com)of a 135i caliper where the Brembo logo is clearly visible.
