The vented rotors on my '87 SPG were warped when I got it - distinct pulsation when slowing to a stop that's proportional to wheel rotation. Changed the rotors (put on Brembo) and the pulsing stopped immediately. After a few years, it's back. Has never happened on any of my solid rotor or ABS cars. One theory I've read is that the rotors with the shallow cutout areas on the circumference are the ones that warp, and that ones with a constant radius don't. No idea if there's any truth to that. Anyway, I can attest that some - but definitely not all - cars are affected by warpage, and the Brembo rotors can warp.
