I remember about 10 or 12 years ago on the MR2 boards there was a huge debate on brake rotor warping. Some people were arguing that what most people were calling "warping" was not really warping at all but an irregular buildup of pad material being fused to the rotor surface after heating up the rotor more than normal. I have had the pad marks show up on rotors on this car as well as others after some spirited drives with a lot of braking and then stopping in traffic with the pads clamped in one place at a light (I have an automatic). I wonder if the rotors warp as much as we think they do.
