Red calipers have become passé and a large reason why the black caliper option has become popular over at Porsche for $900.

But in general, one caliper is exceptionally dumb for such a heavy car (necessitated by the eParking brake).

Ahh, got you, much obliged. Really miss the days of a real parking brake, that was nice in the OG.
