spark plug replacement

I have 60k miles and need to change my plugs, not really looking for more HP, but if i can get more HP and the plugs are the same price as OEM, what kind of plugs do you guys suggest? What are the price ranges for plugs for my car now?

go to autozone, they sell the same plugs as mb and are a lot cheaper. I dont think any other plugs will you give any extra hp. But make sure you use a wire puller tool.
