I guess this means you weren't going to tip them .
All kidding aside I feel it's petty . As much as I feel price negotiating is part of the auto industry there comes a point where this type of thing is actually counter productive. You have a nice car . You want these guys in that shop to be there for you. Why start off the relationship splitting hairs over a few bucks when in the long run they can save you thousands if they feel appreciated ?

If you can afford a nice Porsche, why cheap out on an oil change? It's like people who live on welfare driving a Lexus.

I think that Taylor is just having fun with you, relax. BTW, this is a public forum and therefore they don't belong to anyone. My advice is if you don't like someone, or their responses don't acknowledge there responses.

seriously - change oil yourself. it is very easy, you do not need to raise your car, search i posted before oil pan link from amazon that fits. it is very easy and on your car I think even filter is mounted from above, not under the car, right?
