Pros: Loved them
Cons: OEM stuff sucked
Vehicle:

They are the OE pads on my Kiz, nice bite, zero fade and low dust.
Pros: nice bite, zero fade
Cons: low dust
Vehicle:
Suzuki Kizashi
Good pads.
Pros: Good pads
The Akebono ceramic pads give off a low-visibility tan dust...but on occasion, I miss the grip of the stock pads. Was definitely a worthwhile tradeoff though: Much less to no dust for a barely perceptible reduction in initial bite/grip compared to stock VW brake pads.
Pros: Much less dust
Cons: miss the stock pads grip
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
Akebono euro ceramic are good, but I didn't like the lack of a linear feel to them
Pros: good
Cons: lack of linear feel
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Passat
Akebono in particular seems to put out an OEM quality pad.
Pros: OEM quality pad
Vehicle:
Ford
I'm actually amazed how little these pads dust considering how well they work. Coming from my S6, where the wheels needed cleaning after every ten minutes of driving, I'm impressed!
Pros: little dust, work well
Vehicle:
Audi Q5
All I have to add is that I like Akebono Euro Pads.
Pros: I like them
Vehicle:
Porsche
Akebono's are expensive? News to me. I keep buying them because they offer no noticeable deficiency in braking compared to OEM in day to day driving, while making well less than half the amount of brake dust and come in substantially less expensive than OEM.
Pros: less brake dust, inexpensive
Cons: no braking deficiency
Vehicle:
Porsche Cayman
