WOW... Give BMW of Bloomfield a shot. Cross the Hudson and your savings will definitely pay for your toll and gas and maybe some mods.

If it makes you feel any better, my friend just paid $14,800 for the 25,000 mile service on his Ferrari.
damn, those Ferrari drivers must have sore assholes getting bent over like that all the time.

Which stealership is this in NJ? I go to BMW of Bloomfield and it's only $90. They will also top off all the fluids and wash your car. I think for that price you could have had your air filters changed.
This inconsistency is not right!!!. Maybe they did not "scope" your car which probably is another hour of labor....

you kidding me? it shouldnt cost that much, unless maybe it was an Enzo, F40, F50 of 550M. But even then, that was a big rip-off. What model Ferrari was it? afaik, Ferraris need 15k then 30k service, not 25k. Besides, most 30k service costs $6k - $10k.

Lamborghinis however, costs around $20k for a 30k mi service...

No, they did scope it. The SA called me while they are working on my car and he suggested that the air filers (engine and cabin) are needed to be changed. I believe the total amount if they had to replace the filers and change oil was around $230. I declined, since this is something that I could change myself for a lot less. Other than that they did not find any else on the car.

You could scope your own car for less than that...
