Also being a cheap ass, I'm a hyper-miler wannabe, so I do time lights & such in order to brake as little as possible. My wife has a Mustang that is 400 lbs heavier, same driving conditions, her factory rotors are 6 years old and work fine.

Is there any benefit to expensive rotors like Brembo & Stillen? Or is it all stopping power with no durability?

By that, you mean you wait as long as you can before braking? If that's the case, you probably ARE braking to hard. Our cars aren't the best with rotors. Buying more expensive rotors probably won't help at all.
