I had the same thing 21k miles and I needed new brakes.. porsche said same thing 800 bucks for rotors and pads.. I took it to Redbone here in orlando and explained it and they almost laughed as they told me one more set of pads is just fine before new rotors. They did understand porsche's position on the best quality stopping and the standards around it which is why they say pads and rotors but reality is, not necessary. I had them change the pads with OEM pads from the dealer for 220 bucks out the door and the car has had them since with no issues.
