Peter, those prices include me buying the parts at Sunset at a discount and handing them to my independent mechanic, who charges me a flat rate of $100 per hour, not a book rate like a big shop or a dealership would charge.
Double the prices to get dealer charges or a larger independent shop that uses a book rate and retail parts prices.
You gotta pay to play with an old Porsche out of warrant.
Buy the newest S model you can find with a 100k Porsche warranty on it if you want to make Porsche pay for their crappy control arm bushings, coolant tanks, radiator fans, etc. Otherwise, it's your nickel, and I don't mean 5¢ either... more like $500 a dealer visit or even more.
