Both "2006" and "5AT" would suggest you do not.

No you dont unless they were put it aftermarket. Brembo brakes only came factory in 2003-2004. They were big and orange and said brembo on the front lol

Your car is an '06... so you don't have Brembos... or at least not the factory ones since they only came stock on the '03 and '04 6-speed Coupes.

If you did, your calipers would be bright orange and say Brembo on them like this:

Brembo Goldline

Has anyone tried using the gold kit offered at the link below for touching up their Brembo Goldline set up?
