He gets $2,500 for a tune up on one. He even impugned people that buy them. What is the deal?? Are they really that bad? Or did he have a bad dream about one?

Thanks in Adv.

sounds like your mechanic is a real whiner, but if he was dreaming of changing the plugs and wires, he has a point, but a 964 is similarly a PITA.
can't speak to his pricing, i do my own work

buy a 993
find another mechanic

simple
