I finally need front pads and am really unsure what to get... I was hoping someone here could give me an idea or two and also if they could explaine the difference between materials... I was told the car came with ceramic pads...

There is alot of pad choices. Axxis/Raybestos seem to work well.

Your car comes with semi-metallics as oem. Not ceramic or carbon metallic. CM would be a good choice. Here is a comparision I've found.

Yes it's from a Ford SHO site. But decen basic information. Raybestos has a carbon metallic line also.

Raybestos are the way to go. They are prety cheap and available at Napa. I'm sure they come with a lifetime warranty. I've had them for over 2 years with no dust or squeeling.
