$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.

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.
