HI Folks...At the last moment I decided to check the conditions for my extended warranty (which was not purchased through the Porsche dealer), and I found out that I can actually bring my car for service to *any* mechanic (or even do it myself). I simply have to keep all receipts of the service/parts, and naturally, perform the service in accordance with the owner's manual....

That being the case, I took the Boxster to a reputable Porsche mechanic in the Baltimore area (Genady Soykher @ GT Performance). I watched as they performed all the 30 k service checks and changed the air/oil/oil filters...The entire work took only 2 hours for a total of $207!!! So, I really don't know where the 5 hour estimate from the dealer comes from, but I am really glad I decided to take this route...$900 for the 30 k miles service is simply not honest in my opinion...
