$850! Ouch! On my Jeep I converted the rear drum brakes to a brand new rear disc brake set-up from Stainless Steel Brakes and the whole job only cost me $550. That included new rotors, new calipers, new pads, all the hoses, all the brackets, all the seals, and the new parking brake set up.
I am by no means wealthy, one of the reasons I could justify owning an older Ferrari is the fact that I can do all the work on it myself and it is no big deal if the car sits in the garage while I am working on it or waiting on parts. It is strictly a toy. If the $850 repair bill is getting you down, you may want to invest some of your time in learning how to do some of this work yourself. Brake work is not rocket science. It is actually one of the easier things to repair on the car. I believe that you could have done the whole job yourself in a day (maybe two depending on how busy the machine shop is because you would have to drop the rotors off and have them machine them for you for $30 and how many breaks you take) For $850 you could have bought the factory service manual (which you will always have), all the tools (which you will always have), all the parts and still had enough money left to take the wife out to the fanciest restaurant in town (driving her in the Ferrari of course).
I don't know your situation or the constraints on your time. I am merely suggesting a way in which you might reduce the cost of owning the car by investing money in tools and knowledge before the fact rather than paying a hefty repair bill after the fact. If you are good with instructions, buy the factory service manual and read it cover to cover. Learn how the car was built and what all the pieces do. If you have no clue about what makes a car tick, spend the $300 or so and take an evening adult ed course in auto mechanics. Even if you don't plan on working on the car, that course is worth the money just so you can learn what actually happens when you pick the left foot up and put the right foot down.
