Compared to... what?

Our 987 (no real difference in mechanics to a 997 in terms of care and feeding) has been the lower cost to maintain then the E90 :P

Sure the Porsche tax is there at many dealers, but its really no different IMHO then the BMW tax on the same general services, or outrageous only full list price parts pricing yada yada.

Despite the fact that I can do most common maintenances myself, I have let the dealers do some things so I have a basis to compare.

Last time the brake fluid flush went up 50% for no reason, so that's the last time I use a dealer for that. There's a point where my time is worth it vs. just the principle of over paying for a simple maintenance
