Brake Question

How do I know if I have the i450 Ceramic Brakes? I have an 08 C4S with red calipers. I thought I read somewhere that red meant one thing and yellow meant another, I just want to be sure.

Thank you!

Caliper decode:
Black = standard calipers & steel rotors
Red = larger “S” calipers and larger steel rotors
Yellow = huge calipers and carbon ceramic rotors

Note that replacing worn carbon ceramic rotors is expensive ($20k dealer price). So they are often replaced with steel ones.
