high labor for water pump/thermostat?

The water pump and thermostat on my '04 986s 6-speed failed about a week ago. I had it replaced at a shop specializing in foreign cars, and they charged me 5.2 hours of labor for the job. At 180/hr labor, plus parts, it came out to nearly $1600 for the job. That seems to be a lot of labor hours for a water pump and thermostat (as well as a coolant flush), but I'm not sure. Did I get scammed?
