This is exactly what the guy at the shop told me. From these choices what would you pick? What color do they come in, i've seen some that look goldish and some that look more silver. I like the cross drilled rotors the best. But if this is true how come the picture above from dex are cross drilled and slotted?

Well here is from my car. Front are cross-drilled ONLY Powerstop. Rears are from the Steve Ganz group buy crossed and slotted. My fronts CAME with that gold color but as soon as the brake pad touches the rotor it wiped it off and it looks like stainless steel. The rears look more silver. But you really can't tell the difference.
I like cross drilled as well and that is with what I went initally. When I could get slotted/drilled, I jumped on it. The slots and holes are to keep temperatures down to minimize brake fade. They do weaken the rotor but the rotors are well built enough to prevent any cracking.Before it was blank but I want to say VERY , VERY recently they (Brembo)started selling drilled and slotted due to high customer demand.

I was once talking to a brake parts vendor and they told me that most rotors (Powerstop? iRotor?) are using Brembo and Bradi blanks and then postprocess them, like adding coating, x-drilling, adding grooves.

I heard that too about Power-slot. But I couldn't remember whether it's Brembo uses Power-slot or Power-slot uses Brembo. Probably the first one. HKGS300, thanks for your info.

About the goldish colour, I have heard that after time the rotors goldish colour will disappear. One of my friends has AEM rotors on his honda accord and they were the goldish colour and said that they look like silver now. Just wondering if anybody who has these brembo rotors have experienced this.

isicklex addressed that issue just above, saying his came gold and went to silver. i've heard a lot of other people here say the exact same thing, gold to silver in a short period of break-in
