I was kind of Joking, no way could you do a Benz for that price, some american cars, sure, but not a lot of foreign cars. Seemed like industrious guys though running the gas station, it was around the Boston area.

Dude this is so not the way to go on your S213, you should insist on getting it done for no more than $249.99. After all you have a station wagon made for lugging groceries and pets

And while they're at it, have them also throw on a set of new made-in-China tires from "Miche Lin Tire Co."

Lexus has a similar deal for expert brake service. Those are some interesting looking rotors!
