    They do, it’s standard issue on the Performance model, and a $20k aftermarket option to add. Occasionally you can find a used set for around $10k.

    By "they", are you referring to Audi? If so, yes they do and prepare to sell your kidney for a set.
    Unaware of aftermarket options.

    You can occasionally find them through European suppliers for less like at killerbrakes.com They are manufactured by Brembo for Audi. You are still looking at $10-$15k for a full set, but less than $20k that you'll see through other sources.

    They last quite a while with normal daily driving. I bet 3-4 to one.

    I’ve been quoted that the discs should last 180k miles but the pads will need replacing a couple of times in that period
