Well that's because the people on this board drive them hard and mercilessly. And track them.

On my Honda del sol I had to:
Replace the rotors
Replace the pads
Replace the brake hoses
Replace the bleeders
Bleed the system many times
Replace the master cylinder.
Flush the brake system.

(and I opted for wilwood front brakes ( 4 piston ) )
Other people with "better" driving styles never had to do any of the above.

Can you tell I like to brake HARD?

The rimsa and the bottom 3rd of the car are usually coated in brake dust.
