Not to mention the C5 R has been spanking every porsche in just about every race these days. Good ole MADE IN USA pushrod V-8s! And no $200 oil changes.

Why would the oil change be $200? Gold plated oil filter?

They are $200 for oil change.. maybe more. I was hitting the roof when my wife told me she had it done since I do my own oil changes but because her Boxter is more special than my Blown C5 she has to do the dealer thing.. Amazing.. It may have been $300..
