    Just out of curiosity, on a 2010 Cali that has carbon ceramic brakes, can they be swapped out for regular brakes in terms of rotors and pads?

    TIA.

    Yes from aftermarket supplier(s) - because standard Ferrari equipment has been CCM on all cars from 2008; front is apparently specific to California and rear is same as on 458.
    Interest on a California is probably limited though, as long as it's not intended to be tracked - steel brakes are far cheaper but CCM brakes will last very long on the road, so the additional cost to keep the car as standard is not dramatic.

    Thank you for the information!

    I don't have a pressing need to replace anything as of yet but it's nice to know that's an option, one that I'll probably be exercising when the time comes. With 60k miles on it already, I really don't see tracking it, not that there's anywhere around me that I could even if I wanted to...
