    My front brakes make a sound i am not used to on my 360-sounds like metal on metal. Also, discs on all four seem to be a little chewed up. Is this normal? Thanks

    Not sure what you mean by chewed up, but the surface of the CCM rotors is not shiny like steel rotors. Though, I would not call it chewed up. Plenty of pics out there you can compare to.

    Yes, if the radio is off and you are on a quiet street, I can hear a light scraping sound when applying the brakes. Normal to the best of my knowledge. I never thought much of it, and my Scud has been recently inspected and test driven at Ferrari of Seattle, and they said nothing about it...

    Is this the first car you've driven with Carbon Ceramic brakes?

    What do you mean by "chewed up"?

    Please post some pics of the "chewed up" rotors. Be sure to look at the back side of the rotors too.
    The best way to evaluate the pads is to remove them and do a visual inspection. Just measuring their thickness is inadequate.

    drive it at 80-90 miles/hour and then brake hardly 2-3 times....the squeeze will go away

    Normal. Some hard braking might eliminate it...for a while. Post pics to be sure rotors are ok.
