8-10 grand...... regardless of mileage. But i guess if you can afford that car, dropping 10g's is just like a $60 oil change for us.

i got this from that site... id like to see the prices for each if it were my GS... prolly no more than $1500. i see a lot of "inspection" and not too many "replace"...
