FWIW, tornado sirens just went off in our neighborhood, maybe it's the extra weather insurance causing the overpricing. Ughhhh, tornadoes in January are not supposed to happen.
I have a 944, and I got the run-around at a few shops/store, for parts and labor. Sometimes I would give them a call asking for part prices, and items would jump up in price, magically. I would shop around for repairs for my ride, and I turn in the vehicle, when I came to collect and pay, the price magically jumps up. It is a Porsche, yes, but I think they are milking everything to make a buck$. So I do it the hard way, I do my own tune ups, but I look for non-Porsche shops to do the hard stuff, some times with bad results, ex. I needed a steering hose put on, my car is lowered, I told them to be careful on the lift, they crunched my lower quarter panels, tried to pull my attention away from their mistake. My steering was fixed, but I have minor front quarter panel wrinkles. Around here, buyer be ware! Good luck Fast Freddy!
