$200's gotta be way off. I think they're screwing with you, or trying to screw you since they know you're beating the hell out of the car. Out of curiosity I asked about a 4 wheel brake job on the GS430, parts and labor they only wanted $400.

I payed $470 for the extra service plan that replaces the brake pads, headlights, battery, windshield wipers, with no charge. Good for 4 years. Best upgrade I made at the dealer.

If you want I can purchase the pads for you tax free plus 20% off of dealers listing price.

I dont own a IS yet.
But I do have right now a 2002 Toyota Highlander V6 and had various other toyota models. The Highlander has 80k miles on it with ORIGINAL pads. So I think the $470 would be a waste. At least for me it would be.

Are you the one that peeled out from the dealer lot, and changed new tires at 300 miles?

Yup somethings wrong with this picture and a real Tech should know.

And its mostly at the track, or on my property. I might be stupid, but i will never let my stupidity injure somebody else.
