unsprung weight savings does not for street driving unless your apexing every turn out there.
I have floating aero rotors for my M3 and I was felt mostly at the track with light weight wheels. the feeling of weight savings was minimal at best. I would save my money other worthwhile mods/maintenance.

You are saying this as though the weight savings is the only benefit of these rotors.
An M3 comes with great brakes already so I am sure you wouldn't notice much else of an improvement. On a Honda, the brakes are really quite inferior. True, standard rotors get you though and a pad upgrade is going to benefit more than rotors on their own. But between the weight savings, extra life, ability to beat the crap out of them, and awesome looks, the value of the rotors is there for people to which these bullet points are important.
