Life Span of Stock CLS Brake Pads

What is the average life that can come from the stock CLS pads?

Are the Gen II (the new ones that supposibly don't warp the rotors) pads longer lasting?

Do warped rotors make the car eat up pads faster?

I dunno.
My rotors have always needed replacing before my pads.

I got 50k on the original pads (original composite). And I drive my car pretty hards.

They put the new compound pads on when I had the originals replaced... dunno how long they're gonna last.
